Comments Thread For: Hearn: Joshua Would Take Deontay Wilder Out in Three!

[tiliheels]

i think it would be a very easy fight for joshua. joshua more refined throws crisper punches and hits harder imo.

wilder is too awkward and wild and throws a lot of ugly punches. his only saving grace is his power.

but u forget one thing...joshua has only been fighting guys that dont move a lick when they throw..their jab is just asking to be countered and tbh that is how he knocks his guy out every time by countering a smaller fighters lazy jab...deontay has a long reach and moves laterally on his jab even when he is tired..i think both have the potential to be great...but at this point i need proof that joshua can do more as of now...it wont be long after that i'll be willing to say he can spark deontay...but can the kid cut the ring? can he get out of the way of punches form differnt angles? hows is his head movment...and the last question...can he take a punch? AND TBH THAT ISNT TEVEN THE LAST QUESTION...this kid has questions to answer

I agree.

Feel like a hater for constantly getting onto Wilder's case but he just defines 'hypejob' in my eyes, I can't see it any other way.

'Oh but he hits hard'. Yeah and dehydrated hospital-bound Stiverne went 12 with him and Eric Molina had him doing the Ickey Shuffle.

i dont see wat joshua is didnt any different to wat wilder was doing...he doesnt have wilders right hand...wilder doesnt have his left hook...he doesnt have wilders jab or feet either...as of now all joshua is to me is a person who can counter a jab that is coming from right in front of him...but on the top level jabs dont stay still bro...talkin one sided for either fighter is fanboy characteristics..

every joshua fight is the same show...counter a stiff and hit him on the ropes until it is stopped...at least wilder is facing some adversity vs guys who can come in and take your best weapon away forcing u to show more instead of buying into your own hype right now...can we not agree to that??

I'm curious what the yanks will say about Joshua when he walks through everybody and becomes the undisputed champion....they can't say he is not english like they tried with our Lennox Lewis.....they can't compare him to frank Bruna because he has great boxing skill and power with his size....they can't complain about him not fighting good fighters because wilder is champion and he still fighting bums....mark my words the only heavy that can possibly beat Joshua is klichko now....in another year nobody will I guarantee that ....Joshua will be the king

u are off ya meds...as an american i dont gaf wat country a person is from if they can become a star and fight good talent...idk where u see great boxing skill yet, but i see shades of it...great boxing skill requires more than see him beat ppl who throw from no angle..

Agree with Hearn, Joshua wants to be a superstar, he's putting in then work to do it, trains hard, does everything right, his technique is FAR ahead of Wilder already.

Wilder has barely improved in years, fighting bums, is being held back by Haymon, yet talks like he's made it to the top already.

The Haymon effect.

they shouldn't be talking about other heavies until they're ready to fight them

I think Whyte will win against Joshua

Wilder is has shown more skill than Joshua. Anyone can look amazing bullying a guy across the ropes and blasting them away with open shots.

AJ needs to fight someone that can move and punch back to see if he has a chin and if he can adjust to the opposing fighter and still win

Yes that's if Wilder stood right in front of him like a plank.

[Szef]

I doubt it.

I think Whyte will win against Joshua

Like the way whyte goes to the body, if he can do that against Joshua then he would have a better chance at winning.
