    He looks good, maybe he has been training those chicken legs because he actually looks more proportioned for once.

    I always thought he had the upper body of a 240 lbs man and the legs of a 180 lbs (6ft 7) man.

    He looks very lean around the waist, might be 220ish lbs with a little bigger legs.

    I don't know if it's exactly the same case for him but I find that very slight changes in my routine shift my weight range widely on a day to day basis. Wilder seems to have freaky metabolism so I can imagine he can put on muscle and strip it off at will with minor changes in workload and diet.
    I'm a flyweight currently but there was a period of two weeks where I dropped over 10% of my bodyweight (basically from featherweight) to get there and I didn't even consciously try to do it. It's definitely possible for Wilder to do something similar.

    Good to see a heavyweight that's actually in shape and not sporting a huge gut. He looks like a middleweight and AJ can use the same excuse as Fury not to fight him. AJ's legs and arms looks like tree trunks but who cares, this is not power lifting or mr. olympia. You gotta be fluid and snap punches off. Can't wait for this fight, can we actually get any big fights at HW, it's a shame.

    If Wilder hits AJ it's all over. And at some point he is likely to hit him.
    Alternatively, if AJ can land hard shots on Wilder for several rounds, he could win. But he would have to not get hit.
    Which seems more likely?

    I like Wilder. He is crazy and has an undeniable ego that makes him go all out. Whats not to like?
