Joshua is dining out on beating a 41 year old inactive Wlad in a life and death fight. Wlad already looked shot v Jennings and Fury showed it.
Takam would've gone the distance with AJ without a bad stoppage and Joshua just went 12 in a stinker with a guy who scraped past Hughie, Ruiz and Takam.
If you wan't a true indication of Joshua's level, forget that he beat a shell of a fighter in Wlad. His true level is slightly above Parker, Takam etc..
AJ is straight up and down. absolute dog sht.
Parker nullified his entire offense for 12 rounds.
what a fckn DISGRACE. throw a bag of tomatoes at that mofo.
To be fair Parker’s power had something to do with it. He tagged AJ whenever he tried to get cute and AJ backed off.

It's all relative. He's clearly not mediocre among the current crop of heavyweights, but he's also a very limited fighter in many ways. I'm actually reasonably impressed with his ability to fight to his strengths and overcome his obvious shortcomings. McCracken deserves a lot of credit for taking him as far as he has.
Wilder was dropped by some no name in his pro career & put to sleep by some midget polish guy in the amateurs, completely flattened, he doesn’t have a good chin.
I’m talking about stuff that’s happened in the 5 years. That’s not even relevant since Wilder is a much different athlete and fighter now. AJ has gotten knocked down a bunch in the amateurs as well and in sparring as well. The last time we’ve seen both men in trouble Wilder held up better. Literally
Wilder has a way better chin. He took a punch he didn’t see coming from Ortiz and never went down.
Took a bunch more punishment and never went down.
Joshua would have been on the canvas. AJ has been down.
Advantage Wilder clearly

you dont think wilder would land his right? aj barely threw it it seemed. Parker and his short arms wouldnt do a damn thing
How long did it take Wilder to land his right against Spzilka!?
You think Wilder lands his right with 100% accuracy!? Lol..
AJ barely threw it because Parker was bending to his right which made it that much more difficult to land it & if he did it didn't have venom in it..
Parker moved really well and used twitches and feints to confuse Joshua, it was a game plan that worked first half but inactive with his offense lost him the fight but being active meant AJ had his chances..
Wilder' best weapon is his right hook and straight right..
AJs best weapons are his uppercut, left hook and straight right..
Neither have good chins

Klitschko is back, but now he is black
You boxing fans from the UK, who criticized Ukrainian heavyweight for being "boring", now have your own boring "gold" champion, who avoids real fight, hammering from the distance and backing with a straight left. Was size difference crucial today? For shure. Much more than in Lomachenko - Rigondeaux fight.
Easily and brutally. He’s a sitting duck for Wilder.
Too slow and stiff. I also think he’s hiding a glass chin.
It won’t even take a flush shot from Wilder to do him in.
Neither have good chins
Parker fought a similar style to Tyson Fury except he is shorter and doesn't have the reach.
Tyson Fury however does and is more accurate. Imagine what the 2015 version of Tyson Fury would do to AJ...
AJ isn't all that great it seems. A bit over hyped. Reason why I called him mediocre.
The media has him as some guy who is a knock out machine/artist but he failed to deliver that against someone decent who moves around a lot and is good at avoiding.
Imagine if AJ fought the 2015 Tyson Fury, AJ would get outclassed and embarrassed.
Although it pains me to say this Fury fought a perfect stinker of a fight and just moved and pot shotted all night and avoided the right hand.. Fury will beat AJ who also looked clueless at time in the fight.. He is hyped for sure but he is a legit HW and can only get better, he has had only 20+ fights, so in his own words he is a work in progress..
Wilder doesn’t beat anyone with ease except fat Stiverne, that being said I think Wilder has a good chance to win but I stand by my prediction that Joshua will knock him out.
Styles makes fights.. Parker fought the same fight that Fury did against Wlad and what Spzilka did against Wilder until he got c0cky..
All night long he avoided the right hand..

No I think he is good, he is real good but he is BEATABLE and dealing with Quickness is a issue not just for him but for MOST BOXERS. That being said he did some positive things like his Jab was good and also his STAMINA was Excellent. Not many heavyweights are as slick or as quick as Parker.

Very overhyped. Ortiz would have beaten both men in the ring tonight inside of 6 rounds.
Looking back it makes Wilders win while being drained from being sick even more significant.
If I was Wilder I would target Parker and get the KO. Just to show the world that I can do what AJ can’t.
what lol, ortiz is much better, wilder stronger longer faster than parker
