    Joshua and Wilder both got a strange dancing partners

    I am surprised Joshua is fighting Wallin next, which is like fighting poor`s men Usyk. Joshua knows this is a hard fight for him, this is why he needs a rematch clause lol.

    Wilder is fighting a smaller and faster guy with a good inside game. Parker is better than anybody Wilder has ever fought except Fury.

    I think Wilder has no idea what he is doing and I can honestly see Joshua retire after two Wallin fights.

    Don`t get me wrong, I am looking forward these two fights. Just, a strange match making from Wilder and Joshua teams.

    Rematch clauses exist for every top fighter and they’re in place to have set amounts in the event said favorite loses and the opponent doesn’t price himself out in a second fight . It’s not about thinking you’ll lose .

    Joshua will win this fight easy it’s a mismatch but that’s because there’s levels .

    Parker vs Wilder the potential upset and if Wilder doesn’t have a rematch clause that means his guys are clueless and have no business handling him being out for over a year .

      The reality for Wilder is he is 38 years old, he doesn't have time to tread water or do a slow rebuild etc, he's just got to get in there, be active and take the best fights he can.

      For AJ, his commercial value has dipped a lot, his last two fights were not sell outs even in (for him) small venues, so options are limited as to who you match him with.

      But essentially, both these guys demand big paydays, and outside of Saudi they have limited options to get that, and if they fight in Saudi, they fight who they are bloody told to.

        I would of imagined that those opponents were offered to them for this event 'There is jeopardy involved in both fights for Joshua and Wilder, so this is not a bad thing'.

        Stylistically I would say, both fights are actually good fights for Joshua and Wilder to build momentum 'As they will both get something out of the win'.

        Wilder I don't think really proved much to himself with his win over Helenius 'Helenius was wining the round before the knock-out, Wilder was all over the place technically in my opinion'.

        Joshua's performance vs Franklin overall I think, built him back more momentum 'Joshua won 95% of the rounds, and he fought like you would expect a seasoned Super Heavyweight to fight in that kind of stylistic match up'.

        If Joshua beats Wallin and wins 95% of the rounds over the distance, that type of performance is a really top level win.

        Note: So overall if both Joshua and Wilder can win in fairly dominant fashion, those are big performances. I suspect Wilder's fight vs Parker is ether going to be a easy win or a mighty struggle 'I envision that type of action in that fight, more so than the Wallin vs Joshua fight' etc.

          They're opponents who you wont get much credit for beating, but who are good enough to be an actual threat.
