If they were to happen in the first half of 2020: Anthony Joshua vs Deontay Wilder - Oleksandr Usyk vs Dillian Whyte (in shape Whyte) - Luis Ortiz vs Alexander Povetkin - Andy Ruiz Jr vs Adam Kownacki - Joseph Parker vs Kubrat Pulev - Filip Hrgovic vs Tony Yoka - Martin Bakole vs Arslanbek Makhmudov - Samuel Peter vs Danny Williams -
Wilder KOs him, **** knows when but he does. He just explodes at Joshua and it's over. Usyk UD12. He just is too quick and fluid. Feet are too good, takes him to school most likely. Ortiz looks to have more left, both should retire afterwards. I think he boxes Pov to a clear UD. Jr stops him. Too much beef. He just is better if he's in (sorta) shape. Parker wins, too quick. Pulev ain't the same nowadays, Parker gets past that jab and starts countering, beats him to the punch enough to win a close decision of sorts. Hrgovic. Tony can't be taking that power. Bakole, more proven. As if now I think he catches Makhmudov, and then the fat lady sings. The Fans.
Whyte beats Usyk In shape Whyte, and motivated Whyte coming in at 247 pounds beats the breaks of Usyk. We now know that Usyk and Hunter dont have the power to dominate HWs Usyk got hurt against Witherspoon and Hunter got hurt badly against Povetkin. I very confident Whyte can do more damage to Usyk than Witherspoon... substantially more.
I’ve watched enough of wilder and AJ to see that wilder punches faster and harder than AJ. If I was a betting man right now I’d pick wilder via stoppage (this is coming from a big AJ fan btw) Fury has shown that wilder can be beat and made to look average although that style of fury’s is a million miles away from AJ I can’t see the wilder fight with AJ happening anytime soon, we’re lucky if we get 3 fights a year from these guys now BUT if team AJ do there homework and can set the right traps against an ageing wilder then I can see them getting the win
Anthony Joshua vs Deontay Wilder - Joshua by mid to late stoppage Anthony can take a punch for sure, he might get hurt, but I cant see this guy getting stopped easily, he has taken big shots in the past and got up to return his own. Now Ruiz is good at Parrying but Wilder aint smooth enough to dodge AJ's combinations. I reckon AJ beats Wilder because he brings more weapons to the game, and almost matches Wilder for power... whereas Wilder has one powerful shot he can place but his other shots are windmills flying all over the place.. AJ now knows how to fight a power puncher, and he will do what Fury did in floating around like a butterfly but unlike FURY he will STING LIKE A BEE!! Luis Ortiz vs Alexander Povetkin - I have no clue! Interesting match up at this stage, I'm genuinely not sure who wins this... they both have enough ability to beat each other, depends on who shows up in the best form... Ortiz can posed problems with his awkward southpaw stance and ability to keep range very welll.... but Povetkin has shown that he still carries power and the ability to land effectively even though I think he tends to miss alot of his power shots. I'm gonna favour Ortiz ever so slightly because I thhought he looked very polished and refined in Wilder 2.. whereas Povetkin can be sloppy at times as of late. Andy Ruiz Jr vs Adam Kownacki - Ruiz by KO/TKO Andy Ruiz Jr beats the breaks of Kownacki... he will do what Arreola failed to do and break Kownacki down hard. Ruiz has a chin and half... that guy cannot be hurt easily... he is a destroyer. Joseph Parker vs Kubrat Pulev - Parker by UD Joseph Parker in a boring UD win, Kubrat is very limitd in this day and age, Parker is the younger, fresher fighter... he will stay busy and mix up the angles which the judges will look favourably upon, dont think either has the ability to drop each other with the cautious styles. Filip Hrgovic vs Tony Yoka - Yoka by stoppage Very good match up, pick'em really... although Yoka hasnt been as active as Hrgovic, I get the feeling that Hrgovic might be slightly more refined/seasoned... both have the ability to KO each other, and both will be keen to engage in a slugfest... I just think Hrgovic will enjoy the slugfest more. Molina had success with the overhand right against Hrgovic, and Yoka can do it better. Molina seemed to fight Hrgovic as if he was giving up 10 inches of reach... he struggled to fight his range... Yoka at 6 ft 7 should have more success Martin Bakole vs Arslanbek Makhmudov - Bakole stoppage Dont know much about Makhmudov except he has lots of power? He is an unknown quanitity, whereas bakole is more proven.. he stopped Wach in his tracks, and he stopped Perea in round 1... Bakole carried proven power. I see Bakole with stoppage given his seasoned experience in the pro's so far as compared to arslanbek Samuel Peter vs Danny Williams - I dont even wanna touch this lol
At this point: Wilder: Up until recently I always considered Joshua/Wilder a 50/50 fight (slight advantage to Joshua). I no longer feel that way. Wilder has proven extremely durable even when hurt (good chin or not), and can still launch a game ender even when hurt. Usyk (An in shape Whyte or not, Usyk is much better) Povetkin: Povetkin still hits hard, throws good combinations and is a bit more active Ruiz: Kownacki would give Ruiz what he wants, someone who comes forward that he can tee off on Parker: Parker's better, period. Hrgovic: The little bit I've seen of Yoka doesn't impress me No opinion on this one Williams: amazingly, Williams is finished, but Peter is way beyond finished
