    Even so, Vlad can take fast hands, its the fast feet he has issues with.

    Now, I would RATHER AJ win, but imo he just isnt there yet. I see another Jennings type of domination for Klitschko. Not a fan of his style but its effective and he has perfected that Jab n Grab, smothering, depleting your energy type of style. Considering AJ hasnt went the distance yet, its really hard to favor him in a 12 rd fight with King Klinchko.

      This isnt going 12 rounds if Joshua presses a quick pace and Wlad will know he cant survive that type of fight with such a puncher with longer reach and a inside killer game . I dont believe Wlads reliance on a jab to set everything up is an advantage here because Joshua has more than enough physical abilities to make this an inside fight .

      I would see this with Joshua pressing enough to win rnd 1 to 3 then exploding on Wlad about rnd 5 to get the k.o .

      Wlad has to survive intentionally for the first time in his career to get to mid rnds to win and i don't believe his jab control does it here . Joshua never lets him into rythm and waits for that opening .

      Joshua K.O 5th rnd

        You think Joshua is not seasoned enough ? I could see Kloiitschko winning by big KO with the flat footed stiff Brit.
        Nah not really. I would like to see some more head-movement etc. It could go both ways. It could be a jab fest, it could be an early KO for either guy.

        But I would have Klitschko as a 70-30 or so favourite.
