He looks more impressive to me. He throws more correct and straighter, shorter punches. Wilder punches so wide much of the time. Sometimes Wilder throws punches with both feet off the ground and gets wild and sloppy. Joshua is more precise and accurate with his punches.
    Wilder is out injured till 2017

        I think the interest is still there but you can't build stars if they're not fighting the opposition that the public wants to see.

            biggest fight in boxing if it's built right, and wilder can keep out of the loser's bracket and the doctor's office.

            i think joshua needs to beat fury, and then it can be in a british stadium in front of damn near 100K. joshua is an olympic gold medalist, and he won it at home. from what i gather the guy is a bonafide star already.

            this fight may very well be the biggest fight in boxing in a year or so.

              I think Wilder needs to step up before he challenges either Fury or Joshua.

                If anybody needs to step up it's that slow mummy Joshua.

                    as far as the fight goes, i actually have no idea who wins. Two big lumps who cant box with vulnerable defences and chins, whoever lands the first big shot wins.

                      In a year with proper Showtime promotion, it will be utterly massive. Boxing fans are different of course, but your average casual fan will see Joshua fight a couple times in the US, and then Wilder, and you have a massive HW fight. Anyone who says, "HW bosing is dead in the US" is smoking crack.

                      May-Pac was billed as the "Ali-Frazier of this generation". An actual fight between two huge, powerful, undefeated HW champs will be a monster in the US and outside as well..
