Comments Thread For: Roy Jones Wants Joshua To Get More Experience With James Before Facing Wilder

[TreD]

If the top guys weren't fighting just once or twice a year, this wouldn't be a problem...

I hope he gets paid good money for DW because that will be his last good pay day before he retires. DW wrecks him for good.

[ShoulderRoll]

If he had stayed with Robert Garcia he would have more experience with the body attack that worked so well against Usyk.

Should have done that instead of trainer-hopping and having to start over again with a new style.

I know where Roy is coming from. It takes time to gel with a new trainer. But sometimes a punch can make u gel with the canvas, like that time when Antonio "Free Base", "Bobby Brown Mouth" Tarver hit Roy on the tip of his chin

As a guy , Joshua doesn't seem a bad one but I would hate to be a fan expecting a victory against Wilder ....The Hearn's have done an amazing job steering him away from too much trouble if he is to have any more paydays that should continue or maybe it's a all out gamble in big money Saudi but that will end in tears ...Wilder is all wrong for Joshua .Jones and most can see that.

I think Wilder is easy for him, so long as he don't get bombed he just got to box clean, I expect him to take advantage of the boxing flaws that Wilder has, AJ should be able to stop Wilder because of styles and it would be a huge win for the morale, but if AJ gets clipped its career over.

No, AJ is too slow for Wilder, and AJ really isn't all that good of a boxer either, a lot of success he had has come from either size or youthful explosiveness, and now he's not all that young anymore he's slowed down from what he was when he fought Klitschko..not to say he has no chance against Wilder but he's more likely too get caught and hurt by 1 of his fast explosive rights..Can't forget Fury was almost 300 pounds and Wilder put him down several times only thing saved Fury was the fact that he was so big imo...

Don't worry Roy, Joshua isn't fighting wilder anytime soon.

[Boxviewer]

Rubbish, what does Wilder have apart from powerful right hand? Wilder can't outbox AJ and it's also not certain he can handle AJ's power. Wilder does have a puncher chance to beat AJ. Wilder is only a monster to c-level fighters. There's a good reason why he declined to face AJ for the undisputed championship despite $100M offer. Since he is sitting and waiting for a retirement payday AJ is generous to offer him that payday. This fight is nothing but a money grab, it would have been something to look forward to when both had the opportunity to become undisputed HW champion few years ago.

I don't think it's hard to see AJ winning for a while. It's just pretty much impossible to see him staying away from Wilder's right hand for 12 rounds. It's not even like you can see the current version of AJ being confident enough to stop Wilder before he did have to eat a right hand.

I feel at peace now I know what Roy thinks.
