    AJ earned my respect by making this fight happen. Win and he's the next big thing. Lose - he can recover. make a spectacular comeback and rule the division soon, once Wlad retires. As long as he really puts on a great performance it's win-win for AJ. 9btw, I am not a member of the AJ hype train and I bet on Wlad)

    It all depends on how they lose.

    Of course, if Wlad looks like Sergio Martinez level shot then we should point it out but even if its a competitive fight the lose will be called a hype job or shot/was never that good.

    Ever since the fight was announced it looks more and more like Joshua is going to get spanked.

    Think it all depends how its done. If he goes in there and punches klitchko about the ring. I think its time to concede he is the next big thing. If he sneaks a win out...i say the jurys still out bearing in mind its a 41 year old klitchko with poor preparation in terms of inactivity etc. If he loses...we can start to say hes been hyped a bit too much and a lot of guys we,re right about him. He has been hyped to the hillt tbf. You d expect him to beat klitchko at this stage.

    I ll concede if he smashes klitchko out of there. Its fair to say theres not much out there that will stop him barring maybe a lucky big shot from wilder. People talk about fury...and i m a big fan. But hes about 6 stone overweight atm with a drugs allegation that most fans seem happy to brush under the carpet. Its not looking good for him. Parker and ortiz probably wont do much if hes able to smash klitchko. Even wilder only has a small chance of doing anything.

    Still think klitchko wins it.

    I agree....If he gets the decision he went 12 rounds....If he gets KTFO it was by a highly intellect of the ring.....

    I again don't care who wins as long as it is a decent fight. I've seen more exciting stuff at a retirement home compared to his Furry performance so if he wins he should step down. Nothing left to prove

    I like both guys too, actually I just started rooting for Wlad when it came to this fight because of the challenge A.J. presents and the fact that Wlad is the underdog. That being said, for the good of boxing A.J. needs to win and as big as this fight is, it only sets the stage for an even bigger fight with Wilder. That is if Wilder can fight and beat Parker. At least that's what I want to see. However Ortiz has something to say about that because he is the mandatory for the Joshua and Wlad fight and he is refusing to take step aside money. I guess I got off the subject but you know how it is when talking boxing.

    I don't think AJ has much to win in this fight (Except for ££££££)

    The name will look good on his resume but doubters will still doubt and claim WK was already past it... And AJ fans will still think what they always did that he is the next top HW

    IF he wins the real tests will come against the other champions (and Fury)... Then we'll find out a lot more about him!

    AJ is completely unproven.

    More unproven than Hillary Clintons innocence.
