I think this is a good fight, and actually said I'd like this to happen after the Johnson fight.

What are your thoughts and is AJ ready?

Damn, this is a much bigger step up than I expected, I was fully expecting TT in the ring against AJ.

Very, very good match up to see just how good and how far ahead of the pack AJ is. Wach has the experience and the skill, he has been in there with a lot of good fighters, AJ might finally have someone who can go rounds with him.

it clearly is a huge step up, wach will be able to test joshua's chin, price would of gone over the first time he got touched and chisora clearly doesnt give a s**t anymore..

[gingerbreadman]

IMO this is where we see if Joshua can **** to the body as well as he does upstairs. If I were his trainer then I would have him really target Wach's body. If Joshua knocks him out with a headshot then Hearn needs to build a time machine to bring back prime McCall.

jimmy burchfield!

everybody in new england boxing circles knows and respects him and CES promotions! he was a super nice guy when i associated with him.



nice fight. our AJ is moving along nicely. he needs rounds. so does our deontay.

Silly me /facepalm* I made a thread without checking if there was one created. If a Admin/Moderator would delete my thread would be sweet (y)

Looking forward to it, big step up for AJ - this is a fight where he can be tested. I'm going AJ by K.O

Wow, that's a big step. Wach isn't great but I don't know if Joshua has fought anyone either that big or with such a granite chin. Both at once is a tough challenge.

Maybe the thinking here is that Wach prepares him perfectly for taking David Price's European title (if he wins it in July).

[bojangles1987]

It's someone who can take a beating and give him rounds, which he needs. Joshua should be easily good enough to win.

Finally a Joshua vs Wach thread I can post in because the other one was created by Freedom and he has me on Ignore.

I'm betting AJ will win, but anything can happen.. this is quite the step-up for AJ, Wach is not a bum
