Wlad VS Joshua Poll!!

If Klischko fights like he did versus Fists of Fluff he wins this by KO. If he fights like he did versus Pulev he wins by KO. I'm going with Wlad by KO.

Wlad is way past prime while Joshua is young and improving. Joshua has skill, hand speed, accuracy and great power in both hands. Wlad still can punch very hard but at 41 years old his ability to land his bombs has gone down a lot. Joshua should win by KO but Wlad is still dangerous. I think Joshua is the best heavyweight in the world.

I think people overrate Wlad's skill and confuse it with experience. He's quite a one-dimensional fighter these days. He wrestles/smothers smaller fighters and is clueless with bigger fighters, just jab-push, jab-push. Looked like a useless oaf against Fury and Pulev (even though he KO'd him it was a horrible fight). He was mega when he was young and coming up, throwing bombs and big combos until his chin would let him down! Shame, people would love him 10x more if he put it all out there.

Both have the power to seriously hurt each other, but only Wlad has the experience to deal with it. Wlad by KO.

Both are very much similar I don't think AJ has more speed than Wladimir maybe he pops out a shot quicker but he is not quicker with his foot work, is he better with his footwork? Not sure either.

Power - Wlad 9/10 - Joshua 9.5/10 Speed - Wlad 5/10 - Joshua 6/10 Skill - Wlad 8/10 - Joshua 5/10 Chin - Wlad 4/10 - Joshua 5/10 Joshua TKO, wlad is done.

wlad by ko, might get a bit rough before then but I can't imagine the current evrsion of AJ beating Wlad.

In this fight I would favor Wlad 51/49, both are the same size with similar power, similar chin, Joshua being faster, Wlad being more skilled, Joshua being younger, and Wlad having 51 more fights under his belt

If that fight went late I think Wlad would stop him. But I don't think it will. Joshua is very aggressive and would probably take the play right away from an ageing Wlad it would become a bit of a shootout then. I can't even imagine Wlad in that kind of situation. It would be fun. I think I'd back Joshua to put him away but in that sort of situation with two big, big men it is sort of in the lap of the Gods. Wlad would have to have a lot of desire left to fight Joshua because it could be a bit of an embarrassing way to go out for a great champion if Joshua levelled him.
