    They have the same height and nearly the same weight and reach. That said, I expect AJ would be difficult to clinch.

    To me, this fight means finding out how deep Joshua's talent truly goes and where Wlad is, mentally. Joshua has been capitalizing on blatant mistakes made by low quality HWs. I haven't yet seen him set traps and actually cause guys to make mistakes. He's more of an observe and attack kind of fighter, and will hopefully grow into someone who is more imposing and psychological.

    Wlad is such a big question mark right now. If he has the focus he did against Pulev, I think he controls Joshua over 12 rds and takes advantage of his inexperience. If Wlad shows hesitation like he did against Jennings or Fury, I expect AJ to only compound Wlad's problems by hitting him hard, causing him to go into defense mode and lose numerous rounds.

          And yet you rate Joshua who has beaten who exactly?

            This is a pretty good summation of the possible outcomes of the fight. I voted Wlad to win but in reality there are a number of variables that could tip this either way.

              I don't give a **** who or what you think....I'm saying klitchcko will be 41 years of age and really past it if they do face each other...I don't care who joshua has faced yet ....he's beaten them all and he's only getting better ....his size and power matches up well with klitchcko and there is more question marks about klitchcko than there is about joshua now to me...he is too old ? Can he pull the trigger ? Will his chin hold up against a powerful bigger opponent ? .....the better the competition of joshua the more he will up his game...good fighters will do that and you can only fight to the other fighters strengths and he's not got out of second gear ...klitchcko has had his day and will get busted up by joshua just you wait and see if they do fight

                  i really can't see a 41 year old klitchcko coping with the power and size of joshua at this stage of his career.....it's never been done in history before that a fighter can last into his 40's and still keep winning.....foreman was an exception because he took many years off and he also knocked out a much smaller chinny Michael moorer .....joshua busts you up and at 41 years of age you feel those punches a lot more ....lets see m8

                    Accurate and realistic.
