    Lord of the flies - Joshua vs Wilder. Like getting a boner for Witherspoon vs Tony Tubbs around 1991

        Before the Ruiz jr catastrophe, Joshua was obsessed with Wilder's earlier performance against Stiverne (?), so yeah good advice from Hearn lol.

          Hearn is 100% right. Joshua is never going to be able to KO Helenius like Wilder did. He should just try to win the fight and go for the KO if it's there

          I've seen interviews with Breazeale and Parker and they both say Joshua's right hand is fairly normal for a heavyweight. But both said he has a very powerful left jab.

          He is no Wilder in terms of power. I remember AJ had to hit Whyte with *a lot* before he stopped him

            Eddy is worried about his cash cow. Who has AJ KOd lately? Nobody, much less in the first round. That's not advice, Eddy is begging. Bob is looking better.
