For a while now people are/were saying that Joshua has more skills than Wilder. What exactly does he do better than Wilder? Hold his hands up better, move better, jab better, throw the right hand better, the left hook...what?
Opinions are changing now from Joshua's last two performances. People are starting to see his true technical worth.
The Joshua from the Wlad fight is a facade. The Joshua in his last two fights is the real McCoy.
Joshua is a stiff, lumbering, no arsenal having stiff ass, keep you at bay jab user. He doesn't even body punch. His right hand is thrown terribly and he has no inside game. Like everything is done stiffly. You saw him trying to land on Parker inside. He looked so amateurish. It was worse in the Takam fight. Maybe he isn't "priming" yet as he says lol.
The clear difference between the two is Joshua throws a better left hook. That's it. And that punch hasn't been landing because fighters know to not let him land his best punch-the left hook. That's all that I could come up with.
I fail to see what else he does better than Wilder. Wilder who throws his left hook like an arm punch throws his right like a ****en mule kick. Balance is in Wilder's favor, jabbing, movement, and maybe even chin.
Wilder dominates him in almost every department other than the left hook. Joshua's skills are truly overrated and the fraud will have to beat Wilder to convince me that he's the better fighter.
Joshua wins on his size alone. Jab, jab, clinch. Jab, jab, when clinched tries to throw right uppercut. Jab, jab, miss punches, and clinch. But he has more skills than Wilder, lmao.
I'm tired of all the talk leading up to the fight. Joshua's fanatics have had their say, and now it's time to see Wilder Joshua. I just don't believe this technical superiority that some of you say Joshua has over Wilder sorry.
Better Jab/Defense/Skills/Technicalities
The only thing Wilder has is power and Stamina and the power department is razor close.He doesn't have a better jab or defense. Now if you call holding your hands up better than Wilder ok lol. Skills? You have to define that for me, and technicalities? You'll have to explain that to me also, lmao.
AJ takes less risks which equals less chances of him getting knocked out
Better defense
Blocks better
That's it
Wilder is faster, explosive, better combos, better stamina, superior reach, and jab could be equal between them and has a nastier killer instinct!
Exactly and that may be about it. Good answer.
oh so AJ is doing a golovkin in the canelo fight in order to lure canelo into a rematch?
I hope so Curt, lmao. Because if that's fighting, that won't be enough to beat Wilder.
Both are roided up Basketball players like Zo Morning and Carl Alone
In an era of weak heavyweights
A Prime Charles Barkley beats both on the same night while getting drunk
Stop it with the nonsense!
Shaq has the best left hook in the game, ask Barkley and Yao Ming jab is farther reach than great walk of China!

neither guy is much good compared to past eras, but joshua is a hell of a lot more skilled than wilder. bottom line is he wouldnt get outboxed by spzlika or washington and hes never looked as sloppy as wilder did last fight. im not saying theyd beat him but i guarantee takam and parker would have won a fair few rounds of wilder, more than they did off joshua/
Yeah, they're good points but Wilders right hand is an "equalizer"!

great post!!!!!!!!
IMO Joshua has better balance and has more comprehensive fighting skills. Unfortunately his performance against Parker was unimpressive but I think it had more to do with Parker's awkward style. It will be interesting when he gets in there with Wilder. Wilder is oftentimes off balance, telegraphs his windmill style of punches and is there to be hit. Having said that, if Wilder tags Joshua with one of his signature right hands all bets are off. My bet is still on AJ if and when that fight is developed.
Joshua has a pretty good defense, but i just don't see the counters.
He is not as robotic as people think. Parker was a better boxer then he thought and didn't give him a target. What AJ don't do is set up something and his adjustments were minimal.

Yeah, but I'd say Wilder throws combinations better. And their counters are pretty equal.
Windmilling is not throwing proper combinations. And no, Wilder is not a better counter puncher. Wilder has the edge in speed and power( by a margin) nothing else really.
Joshua has better balance, defenses, jab, more accurate, can throw combinations better, knows how to party, block, then counter, and he cuts off the ring better. Anybody with a set of eyes cam see that Joshua is a more skilled fighter than Wilder.

What Joshua is doing is missing punches instead of taking them lol. So maybe if he fights Wilder he starts to land those shots that he's been missing lol...

AJ just tryna lure wilder into a fight(cuz ya know wilder dont really want it lol)...the same way lil g took them punches from monroe to lure canelo....thats all!

all they talk about is windmills as if that's all wilder does smh. I favor wilder if they fight by KO but if it goes to decision AJ wins. im glad you made this thread because these posters were losing it.
Nobody has still said anything about Joshua's skills. They can't just keep it real and say that he's basic at everything which isn't bad at all-just basic. The Wlad fight created this highly skilled monster. You can do that to an old man. Reality has set in. Joshua is who we thought he was-basic. Good stance, strong jab, clinch.
