Wlad sounds like he will be perfectly happy if Joshua inherits the throne. I just don't see a aggressive fight between two fighters that love each other. His same everything but different colors comment is funny. Probably funniest thing Wlad said since he claimed he wanted to fight Lennox back in 2000.
Respect to AJ for taking this fight. Is there a rematch clause for AJ here in case he loses? Seems he has more at stake here.
I just hope its a great fight and Wlad doesn't go out from an embarrassing beat down with his final moments trying to lift his head up from the canvas looks sorry for himself, Would be kind of like watching your dad who used to be the man get whooped by somebody your own age lol. 50/50 fight for me though, Wlad could still have enough left in the tank, he certainly seems motivated and isn't dwelling on the loss hes using it as a wake up call. He also looks thick as hell, His head,fists, body etc is naturally much thinker than AJ, AJ is a bit like kell brook at 160, bulked up hes naturally pretty skinny.
There is zero aggression and anger in this face off. Both guys respect each other and for me it's 50/50.
You're exaggerating but Wlad's fists do look frickin huge compared to Joshua's, I never realised Wlad had such big hands. Joshua looks bigger than I expected. In previous photo's I have seen of them together Wlad has looked wider around the shoulders but Joshua is just as wide as him now.
