Comments Thread For: Wilder: I'll Exploit Joshua's Stamina Issue, Towel May Be Thrown In!

So why is he 20-0? Luck?

His last fight was poor, but against say Molina (who gave Wilder problems) and Breazeale he dominated the fights.

He does need to lay off the weights as I don't see how it can help him.

20-0 not luck.....just weak comp.

Stop trying to elevate Breazeale....don't be such a shameless nutt-hugger..

Most wonder if goofy Wilder is any good at all or has true skill

Ink stained Wilder comes across as goofy and dumb and is still unknown in America. Does Wilder have any true boxing skills out side of a hard right hand that does implode on impact when detonated? Wilder is still a mystery without a true challenge ever out side of tree stump slow Stivierne the old slave for Don King?

Keep pressing them Bomber!!!

Make sure they know your name and make fans over there ask AJ everywhere he go when he gonna fight Deontay Wilder!!

Soon enough, all the fans will be pressuring Joshua to fight Wilder, it's already begun!

Joshua will have to be very defensively responsible if he wants to win!

Promoters. Networks. Promoters. Trainers. Promoters. Fighters. Promoters. Title Organizations. Promoters...and promoters...

Anyone involved with not making this fight happen next (assuming Wilder finishes Stiverne) are simply highlighting the issues with Boxing. Every fight doesn't need a 2-4 fight build-up. The fight simply needs to happen now, while both are undefeated, basically a 98% KO percentage between them, both champions for a unifications. Especially, if Wilder can KO his one KO% blemish, there will be no better time to make it happen.

People wonder why there aren't more trilogies or rematches. It's because promoters like to wait until fighters are in their mid 30's to make the big fights happen. Make it happen now. Then capitalize on it (assuming it's a good, great or at least dramatic conclusion fight) with a rematch and possibly a 3rd.

I don't think people realize that Hearn and others have a HUGE meal-ticket in AJ. Tall. Big. Strong. 100% KO ratio. Speaks well. Likable. Champion. Fights have some sort of drama. Easily marketable.

Wilder on the other hand has a lot of those qualities. However, people in the states have not backed him the same way. Maybe he doesn't act, speak or look as "refined" as AJ. Records for American fighters are more scrutinized by American's. As opposed to records for European fighters aren't as scrutinized by their European fanbase. He obviously has flaws and we American's are not as forgiving to those flaws.

What that means is that Hearn and company will do everything in their power to protect AJ and not push him into a dangerous fight now that they know he's the golden meal-ticket we haven't had in a Heavyweight in a long time. Say what you want about Wilder, he's dangerous for AJ. Just as AJ is dangerous for him. Wilder and his team "need" AJ more and they know that. So they're the ones calling for the fight with a serious tone. AJ and his team could have a good, media-marketable career without Wilder so they're in no rush.

It's a shame really. Now Wilder is pushed in a position to defend his title vs Stiverne who he comfortable beat.

This fight needs to happen now. Tyson Fury is irrelevant until he's on that scale.

Why is Wilder giving advice to a superior athletic fighter who has actual competent ppl around him?

Wilder is the one who may need to fire his entire INCOMPETENT staff after Nov. 4th ! This guy cant ride on Joshuas name forever ,sooner or later his severe flaws are going to get him an L ,then Joshua can give him advice .

I been working on my jab yall. Mark Breland had to take a break from mitts and bring in a replacement coach cus I be hitting his hands too damn hard. And I ain't never get tired of throwing. It's mind bobbling. I can see the fight already. I keep thinking about it like how Joshua gonna dodge these Sonny Liston missiles coming at him for all them rounds. Ain't no way in hell. Plus I'm talking to him and he getting flustrated. He breathing hard and it only round four...

Haha yes yes champ! I think you could damage ajs eyes sockets with you're straight punches. What's the likely date you're fighting him do you reckon?

[The Gambler1981]

The only problem is for this sort of plan to really work Wilder needs to attack the body a bit, but to attack Joshua's body means Wilder has to get in closer than he normally wants and Joshua could really set him up for his uppercut.

Joshua will tire out on his own for a bit, but to keep those batteries on E is why it is important for Wilder to go to the body.

Wilder's opportunity to win certainly goes up as the rounds do, but lets not forget Joshua got that second wind & f#cked up Klitschko's night (& pretty sure made his neck about 1/4 of inch longer).

Either way fun fight that I'm excited to see, but sadly I get the feeling this is a year or more away still. My prediction has been the third quarter of 2018 as of recent months.

Like I said Wilder needs to go to the body, unlike Wlad who threw 0 body punches. Joshua has proven he will tire out after 4 or 5 rounds but he will get some wind back by the last third of the fight if he is allowed.

So he can't be allowed to regain what he loses, tough call though because it raises the chance of Wilder's head getting taken off with an uppercut which is Joshua best punch.
