Comments Thread For: Otto Wallin Very Eager To Face Anthony Joshua in December

[deathofaclown]

I’m predicting Zheng I’m Beijing.

can’t see it. DAZN UK needs more exposure so they will want AJ fighting in England on at prime time Saturday starting his new deal. If he fought in China, they would have to put the fight on during the early afternoon, UK time. Not gonna happen, they wouldn’t wanna clash with premier league games.

Oh Jeez, AJ eats this guy alive.

AJ v Dubois or Joyce, if Wilder cannot happen, is a much better fight. Still then AJ beats these guys including Wilder if he can nullify wilders punch.

Dubois? Come on. Wallin would beat up that overhyped kid.

Joshua should fight Hrgovic next.

well, a lot of casuals don’t realize that Big Baby Miller has quietly had two fights and looked like a slow, fat POS who isn’t on steroids.

there’s an opponent lol

True

Hearn said he would never work with him again and that Miller owes him money but who knows. If it would sell, I’m sure they would do it and try to justify it.

I was basically expecting that Whyte would be the nailed on next opponent but there’s talk Whyte agreed a deal with Dubois. Although it wouldn’t surprise me to see him do a U-turn on that if he hasn’t actually signed yet, If he’s going to get offered the AJ fight.

Based on what? Wallin roughed up an underprepared Fury, but other than that he's been very average.

Think Dubois would probably be bookies favourite here.

[Mr Giggles]

This would be the perfect opponent for AJ cause Eddie calls Otto a can, so he should think this is easy for AJ plus if AJ knocks him out and does something fury couldn’t it would set up the fury fight perfectly as people would say ‘AJ just knocked out a guy fury couldn’t and made it look so much easier, AJ is better etc etc’

When you look at this division from a different perspective.

Usyk, Fury, Wilder are all regressing with their game.

Anthony Joshua definitely after watching the weekends fight, is the only fighter out of the top fighters who is still learning and adding to his game 'At-least from a technical perspective'.

But this is also down to Usyk & Fury already being better fighters than Joshua as all round fighters etc.

Tyson Fury can pretty much fight in all areas, he is not super elite in all area's but? He has a Jab, has inside game, and can fight from mid-long range.

Usyk has pretty much everything accept a inside game, or maybe he has just not been forced to show his inside game as of yet.

I am still of the opinion, that the upper limits of Usyk's abilities is unknown.

There is no reason why Joshua cannot improve his Jab. My ratings on the best Jab's in the division before the weekend were: Fury, Wilder, Joyce, Whyte, then Joshua.

But after the weekend, Joshua's JAB has dropped out of the Top-5 for sure. Fury, Wilder, Joyce, Usyk, Whyte.

There are probably more heavyweights other than the ones I have mentioned with a better Jab than Joshua, I was astonished how under par it was.

If David Price was still active in the division, I would rate his Jab above Joshua's.

If Joshua fights Usyk for the 3rd time, he is probably going to do even better. I thought coming into this rematch, that Usyk was showing shades of Fury vs Wilder II? I thought he saw something in that last round vs Joshua in the first fight 'But that was not the case'. Usyk did not pick up where he left off in the 1st fight, he did not hurt Joshua.

I think Usyk has to beat these guys in the heavyweight division, then get out of the game. Because these guys, Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua and the rest of them? I think they are going to figure him out. And the reason why I say this, is the element of danger when you face Usyk.

The man, I rate the man. I rate him as a different, I think he is a really top fighter. But the fact of the matter is, David Haye had power to change things in a instant, Evander Holyfield was extremely strong physically and had a violent inside game.

Usyk I have not seen this type of danger from him, and I think in the Heavyweight division that is what you need 'Especially when you are a classically styled Heavyweight coming up and fighting these super heavyweights'.

Why in gods name is Whyte still in your top 5? He's been KTFO in 2 of his last 3 fights, and has never seen an uppercut that he didn't put his ****ing face in front of instinctively.


But yeah. Usyk has regressed and Joshua has improved. Maybe if Joshua fights him 5 more times, he'll win. As long as he doesn't have a nervous breakdown first.

Eh, not that keen on it. Wilder, or failing that even the winner of Ruiz/Ortiz or Joyce/Parker would be much better.
