Comments Thread For: Promoter: Wallin Has The Skills, Confidence, Experience To Beat Joshua

[REDEEMER]

Wilder, Joyce, Wallin, Dubois, who ever. A small southpaw would make most sense sense considing the hopeful near future but if they found one it wouldn't be a Usykalike.

He just needs a fight.

Zhang Kossobutskiy is 6”3 and arguably better then Wallin I think he’s a top southpaw and around that same level but Carrie’s more power . The problem is everyone would complain about A.J fighting a no name just like they did when Fury fought Wallin before everyone was an expert and knew how good Wallin was of course after the fight .

Otto Wallin is not even a top ten

Pressure this ***** to fight Wilder. TF is wrong with you people?

Boxing fans are the dumbest and so best customers to have. They know their industry can do better and just accept it won't. "Wilder wants ta get high doe" I don't understand why you give a ****, call him a ***** and tell him to fight Joshua. "Joshua got blah blah" Dunno why you give a ****, call him a ***** and tell him to fight Wilder.

You go to McDonalds, they tell you oh we got cheese in the back but the guy who makes cheeseburgers is getting high so you're boned, you order nuggets instead and call it good enough. ****ing mooks.

Frank Sanchez is a crafty Cuban but orthodox. Might be the closest to Usyk on the board.

A.J should be looking for a southpaw, Wallin is probably the closest thing to Usyk fighting style . Should be Wallin or Ortiz but Joyce is much better competitive fight if they could put that one together .

Joyce is a better fight, and a bigger challenge. But technically has very little correlation to Usyk.

To beat Joyce Joshua has to overcome, durability, strength and endurance of Joyce.

To beat Usyk he has to overcome the speed, endurance, and tactics of Usyk.

But in some ways if he is to beat Joyce, that type of win builds you up. There is a reason why now Fury seems unfazed by most other fighters.

He as overcome the fear and intimidation of Wilder's punching power. Joe Joyce in my opinion has a definitive intimidation factor which surrounds him.

If you cannot stop Joe Joyce, you are in for a extremely uncomfortable night. Which could result in brutal injuries.

Joyce's performance be Dubios I think has bothered all other heavyweights. Beating Joyce is a better win than Tyson Fury beating Dillian Whyte.

I would be quite surprised if the fight was made, it is a serious challenge.

Wallin is an intriguing opponent for Joshua if you are team Wallin, because you are getting your man to fight a cashcow without doing anything to deserve the getting the fight.

If you are team Joshua, Wallin is an opponent that offers no benefit beyond staying busy. Luis Ortiz would make more sense, even though he is shot. Clearly at the moment Joshua is better waiting a month or more to see how things pan out for Usyk.

[The plunger man]

Joshua would demolish him....I know the fury fans think wallin would give Joshua a decent test but not a chance....the only reason why I would see it is to see how easy Joshua beats him as that would give you an idea about levels ......not my first pick though

Joyce is much more problematic then Wilder so it’s a top win for anyone . I don’t believe Joyce has the speed however to derail A.J and I see A.J stopping him late he will be hit a lot . A.J is one of only 5 physical fighters with abilities to stuff Joyce’s style physically at least not be run over completely ,the others are Fury , Hrgovic, Whyte , and Mahkmudov . I’d probably add DDD even though he lost held his own and was able e to stop Joyce in his tracks at times but ultimately lost as the rounds piled up .

Those fighters mentioned however doesn’t have the luxury of a giant Heavyweight power puncher with speed who likes to counter punch and that’s what A.J does and that’s the best way to defeat Joyce . No one is as accurate as A.J besides maybe Usyk and while Joyce is extremely durable how much punishment can he take before he buckles ?


The best way to counter A.J is actually speed and out countering the counter puncher ,Joyce will not come even close to doing that but his ability to take shots to land his op own will keep him in the fight well into late rounds but for me there’s only one outcome here it’s a match up heavily favoring A.J but not an easy fight at all .

[RoadMan94]

I’m anticipating AJ/ Arreola. Or maybe even a Hughie Fury. We will then be told it’s not about Joshua fighting a huge name, only about gaining confidence, preparing for usyk and experience with a new guy leading his corner.

One thing we should all agree on is if Eddie tries persuading Gov. bodies to strip Usyk, It’s appalling and Matchroom should be boycotted. I’m expecting Eddie to try it or quietly pay them off. Let’s see how it flies.

[RoadMan94]

Definitely speaking from my own interests as a fan, here, but it looks like Ukraine are territorially holding Russia off, they must have some crazy weaponry to resist.

So maybe Usyk will be back sooner than we think. This war will not end anytime soon; I'm thinking minimum of 6 months, more likely years, a la USA in Afghanistan.

Is Usyk really going to be there for the duration? If he is, then fair play to him, really. I'm the first complain that people from the most deprived communities are cannon fodder for imperial politicians.

If he leaves he cannot return. I don’t see zelenskyy granting him an exemption, but what I do know! He quite possibly could give permission to fly the flag on biggest sporting stage of all.

Wallin is too good for aj, he will never be choosen
