    The more I think on it, AJ v. Wilder feels like a 50-50 fight. I'm at 60 - 40 right now. But the tape on AJ is causing some concerns for me. He's definitely there for a few right hands.
    if AJ gasses vs wilder its over IMO other than that it should be good scrap. I got wilder winning tho

      Myself, I would favor AJ at the moment in that match up.

      They both can knock each other out no doubt. I just think AJ's big punches will get to Wilder first before Wilder's big punches get to AJ due to being technically more sound and fundamental with his punches.
      I agree with this but I really don't believe that wilder beats Ortiz. I hope I'm wrong but it's a massive step up in class for him. Eric Molina gave him real trouble and so did Washington. Ortiz by KO between rds 5-7 for me but credit to wilder for choosing king Kong.

        No wonder he wanted 4 months to train. Needed to get a fear coach.

          but he was talking about dropping the belt anyways if he could fight Klitschko....well I guess it means something to him, I'm not really mad he has to fight Ortiz next right? then he has the IBO too...hmm..when is he going to fight Deontay the 'Bronze-Bomber' Wilder? Hey you think that if Wilder beats his mandatory Ortiz we can see that fight sooner? I hope so, that would be great, lets hope he wont pick David Haye after all those mandatories tho.
          Hey, my nigga ... Bud and Floyd, they my boys yo!

          I didn't lose any bet. I put Crawford up as my avatar in recognition of him becoming the first unified, undisputed world champ in over 10 years.

          I watched the fight live and it gave me a real buzz, both the action and the atmosphere in the arena, similar to what we get for big fights here in the UK. Real passionate support for Crawford from his fans.

          Floyd was representing our sport and he showed the world what real stand-up fighting is all about. How could a boxing fan not support him against Quitter McTapper?

          Back to my beloved Eurobums soon doe .. GGG and BJS fighting this weekend!

            Well that doesn't bode well. Hopefully its a bad translation or this man is beat before he enters the ring.

              Pulev would be the best opponent Wilder has fought, by a pretty large margin

                I'm worried for Wilder too. I do not want the big fight to be derailed between Joshua and Wilder.

                I don't think Wilder is that much out matched.

                I notice when Wilder fights dangerous fighters or steps up he is more disciplined and sharper than when he fought guys like Molina, Szpilka,.etc...

                His fights against Arreola and Stiverne, Wilder looked more disciplined and sharp.

                I would expect the same against Ortiz. There is the age factor with Ortiz too. He might be too old now.

                I'm not sure how to call it, but I'm hoping for a Wilder victory.

                I hear what you're saying though. It's a fight that makes me nervous for Wilder.

                    All of AJ’s opponents have been afraid of him.. AJ has that Mike Tyson effect on guys.. They also mentions his size and muscles in the lead up. Vlad mentioned his physique, so did Molina, Breazeale, Martin.. Only Dillian Whyte gave him no respect.

                      I hope Wilder gets rid of this over-hyped weightlifter.
