    It took fury to whoop wilder
    For wilder then to start carrying his pen

    Wilder should be fighting Ruiz

    Wilder is gonna knock him out now. This is a fight that boxing fans want to see and it still hasn't happened

    People scrutinise Joshua and his mentality while seemingly giving Wilder a pass. He has 3 wins in the last 5 years, against Breazeale, and ancient Ortiz, and a shot Helenius. He’s fought once in the last 20 months. What makes anyone believe he’s still up for a fight?

    Wilder has made a career out of swerving the best.

    It's a great point. I just get the impression Wilder would go out swinging no matter what and has the dog about him. AJ just seems to have lacked that for a few years.

    My reason is the man fought his last fight against Fury until he was stopped by the ref when he could easily have chucked it in a number of times in the fight.

    He passed the warrior code for me, has the heart of a champion, has the desire of a champion and is a big danger to anyone with his power every second he is in the ring.

    Great fight if it happens. I like AJ’s chances here. He can definitely have some success setting traps for wilder and walking him on to something big. This won’t go the distance

    I’m picking aj via stoppage in about 4 rounds

    I like AJ but think Wilder will stop him. I think AJ would take the fight, I just think he's a bit broken now.

    Joshua's too slow for Wilder, and he doesn't have the boxing skills of Fury, to avoid the right hand for 12 rounds. Deontay will stop him mid rounds.

    Joshua is scared to engage but isn't good enough of a boxer for Wilder not to land at some point. His fear of engagement would also limit his chances of actually winning.

    Why? Wilder retires and PBC don’t invest any of the money into the heavyweight division, they take the money and run. At least with Matchroom they continue to invest and grow their stable.

    Wilder by KO. AJ will be so nervous about the right hand it will impact the offense he offers.

    Hoping AJ wins though, and you never know.

    1-wilder retires AJ

    2-wilder wins and AJ takes the rematch then they both retire.

    Means Fury has to face Usyk and there’s no chance of Fury v Wilder 4.

    Joshua would go pretty much the same way as Audley did, out early, the first clip on his chin from Wilder he wobbles and Wilder swarms him.
    I see it as an easy fight for Wilder now, more so than a few years ago.
