Wilder has a good chance but he has to go back to boxing using movement and working behind his jab to set up his power shots. He has the speed power and athleticism to give aj fits. It's an interesting clash of styles and I can't wait to see it.
It's easy to wildly swing at a guy who just stands there and is too out of shape to move or even throw back. Joshua will be the only opponent Wilder has fought who can jab.
I don't think he's the second coming, personally if Tyson fury gets in anywhere near the kind of shape he come in against wlad in, he boxes ajs ears off. But **** me I know it's cool to dislike aj as a boxing purist but if anyone on this forum believes wilder beats him they DKSAB
This. Joshua's team shouldn't let him anywhere near Wilder without at least 25 fights under his belt. They also need to match Joshua with mobile opponents more often. I know Hearn purposely avoids matching Joshua with mobile opponents cause they can be spoilers, but it would get Joshua used to pacing himself better and consistently coming in at a lighter weight. I could see H. Fury taking Joshua 12 rounds if Joshua came in over 245, but too bad Fury is only ranked in the WBO. Parker and Povetkin would also be great opponents.
Whoever lands first wins. We already know Joshua has a w eak chin and bad stamina but Joshua has fought a few risky fights and Wilder has not. I have watched Joshua and Wilder get beat by smallers guy in their amateur days. I still say Ortiz beats both of these bums.
He knocked out the Buffet champ, a guy that was dropped by a washed up journey man, now all of a sudden he can beat Joshua, christ!
