    they will meet one day though,
    Yeah I know, I didn't mean in the immediate future, I'm just tired of seeing Wilder taking out easy opposition, and although Joshua is very early in his career, would be so good to see if he'd beat Wilder

      Joshua is more skilled but Wilder is faster and has devastating power. I can see Wilder streching him with the first 1-2 he lands.

        I say it's time to take the pacifier from Wilder mouth it's time he steps up

          Seen him rocked a few times in the one tournament and I think he's been down a couple of times. Once was definitely to Dillian Whyte.

            They do want that fight. Wilder might even be back-up if Haye pulls out.

              yeah he lost to Whyte in the amateurs. Believe it was Whyte's first amateur fight actually and Joshua's third. So Joshua was pretty green at the time too, but went on to win the ABA twice after that loss.

              Wouldn't look too much into it, and Whyte can crack pretty hard too. Joshua has developed a lot more since that loss, but it will be interesting to see what happens when he takes a big shot.

              Big men with that kind of physique usually don't have the best chins.

                Whyte also had some kickboxing or MMA background, where Joshua didn't have any other background so in actuality Whyte had more combat experiance.

                  Probably. Regardless, I wouldn't read anything from that fight which happened when both of them were green.

                    I ain't satisfied unless they're coming out the amateurs with iron jaws.



                    I don't like how muscular he's becoming either, he needs to keep as much fluidity as possible. Definitely packs a punch though, Butlin was shook and he's a tough cookie.

                      Wilder relies only on his raw power and his shots look awful.

                      Give Joshua 7-8 fights he would beat Wilder with an ease.
                      yea,,,joshua has much more promise. hes more fluid and far more technically sound even this early in his career. it looks like hes had more amateur experience
