Comments Thread For: Hearn: Wilder is Very Dangerous - But Joshua Boxes His Ears Off

[deathofaclown]

It's a mistake for most fighters to try outboxing Wilder for 12 rounds.

Like he says, "they have to be perfect for 36 minutes, I only have to be perfect for 2 seconds."

Even Fury got dropped twice when he used boxing strategy. I mean, if you're Usyk, sure you gotta box him. But AJ should go for the KO.

Yep

Fury sussed out that the best way is essentially try to get rid of him before he does it to you. He said fighting Wilder is like holding a stick of dynamite.

Problem for AJ is there's no way he has the minerals to try to force Wilder to go backwards. It'd be cagey until Wilder catches him. AJ stays hit, he hasn't got the ability to recover like Fury. For me, Wilder closes range too fast for someome like AJ and finds a home for that right hand.


On the flipside, the good thing for AJ is we truly don't know where Wilder is right now after the beatings off Fury. 90 seconds v Helenius tells us nothing. He mightve had any punch resistance knocked out of him in the third Fury fight. His heart might not be there anymore when he's tested. Boxing history tells us those kind of sustained beatings stay with you. And he's 38 this year.

How long before naive sucker Hearn realizes that PBCult is working with other promoters only when it's a win situation for them and lose situation for the other side.
Win-win is not good enough for them.
When crooks are drowning, just don't help them.

Outboxes him for a bit until Wilder renders him unconscious lol

Joshua boxes his ears off until Wilder knocks him out cold.

The same Wilder who was knocked out by a none big puncher Fury. AJ will not only boxe his ears off he will knock his head off. Mark my words.

What would even this old Wilder do to Franklin?
Wilder touches Ajs head he does the robot on ice again. Fury, a far superior boxer to Aj got dropped twice by Wilder trying to box him.

In 18 Wilder & Aj were lined up for undesputed, 2 prospect champions & we were going to find out who's the best, but then the rematchroom marrinating began.
After Wilder accepted a 3rd 14 mill low ball Aj went on Sky TV interview with Johnny Nelson & said "i won't be rushed into the Wilder fight "when asked when he said"19 20 21"Hearn then said" 2020" &" maybe he'll loose by then"... That went well xD.
Aj then walked away from Wilders 50 mill proven offer he asked for to continue his shot old man tour boxing Povetkin milking casuals.
In 19 Wilder turned down the Dazn offer which wasn't a direct fight with Aj, Dazn even said they got it wrong.

Take away all the shot old 38+ former generation names from both resumes & who has either ever beaten? Parker, Martin, Brazeale, Stiverne... They're as bad as each other.

So here we are & Eddie's still playing the same (bore off) broken record smoke & mirror's routine. The Saudis are mad to pay over the odds for this.

Lmao ydksab.

But I think Josh needs to not just p itter patter. He needs some power in jab kronk style, so it disrupts wilder, and wilder can't counter.
Josh needs to hit wilder, so wilder feels beat up and wish he was in another profession

[crisantonio917]

Eddie is a pathetic scum, he must have a life insurance policy on AJ, this is truly a casket situation for Joshua, sad......

Joshua doesn't box Wilder's ear's off, as a matter of fact Wilder knock's Joshua out early if they ever do fight.
Hearn is more of a carnival barker when it comes to making certain fight, in which he has to know that one of the fighter's doesn't really stand a chance of winning.
It wouldn't take Wilder to many round's to land any of his fight ending bomb's on wilder's chin, chest, or solar plexus's, or stomach!
Joshua isn't a coward, but when he get's hurt in a fight it's hard for him to get back into a focused enough mind set to win that particular fight.
Check his reaction's to his being caught, and hurt by Andy Ruiz, he lost his focus of time, place, and actually what to effectively do next.
Wilder on the other hand can fight even more viciously when he's been rocked, and or dropped in his fight's.

don't disagree with your general observations about Joshua but....

specifically about the first Ruiz KD - the reaction to it was an anomaly. He didn't react that way when KD'd down by Wlad - who punches harder, Wlad or Andy?

So why an anomaly? Because Andy's other arm was somehow behind Joshua's neck. Normally the neck will absorb/cushion some of the blow - but because of Andy's arm being there, Joshua's neck couldn't absorb the blow properly. An independent trauma specialist looked at the video and concurred that such a blow would be much more devastating - like a massive whiplash for the brain.

Sat on the stool between rounds Joshua was asking his trainer "whats wrong with me?" - well yeah - doe - you're severely concussed son. And he remained that way for the duration of that fight.

Post Ruiz AJ is getting smoked. Wilder even though don't like his lack of technical abilities dude catches everyone fury is the only one to ever get back up n even then he's 50 lbs heavier which is like Ryan Garcia flooring Canelo AJ gets ko by wilder in 6 UD pointed by fury Usyk I would rather watch this version of AJ vs Zhang or Hrgovic

[juggernaut666]

Wilder is going to get battered badly , in fact Joshua doesn’t have to try and knock him out his jabs will rattle Wilder alone making the knockout that much easier and it will be the third bad knockout loss which probably ends Wilders career here .

One things for sure a lot of boxing scene logic going on in this thread that’s for sure , you’d think Joshua is the one coming in with 2 very bad punishment fights and was the older guy who can’t box and was and filled with injuries needing multiple surgeries over the years ,the way you guys are going about like Wilders going to kill him ,put the house on Joshua ….once again the bizarre forum gets it wrong .
