Comments Thread For: Bernstein: Wilder's Best Chance To Win is To KO Joshua Early

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Showtime Sports expert analyst Al Bernstein is really looking forward to the possibility of a 2018 showdown between undefeated heavyweight champions Anthony Joshua (20-0, 20 KOs) and Deontay Wilder (39-0, 38 KOs). The two boxers are being lined up to make voluntary title defenses in the first quarter of the new year.

I don't understand this idea that Wilder needs to take Joshua out early? Where does it come from?

Wilder is the one with the super human stamina, Joshua is the one with the crap stamina. Therefore, wouldn't conventional wisdom tell you that Wilder will have the advantage the longer the fight goes on?

Tired of all this talk either they fight or both shut the **** up

Well considering how many times AJ has been knocked down in sparring, it's a possibility.

Lolsss, so you would judge AJ by paying attention to sparring rumours? Hahahaha, dumb **** like this can only be said by dumb Wilder fans!

It comes from the fact that as of yet Wilder hasn't really faced anybody that could seriously hurt him, whilst Joshua has, thus the notion being that if the fight goes to the later stages Wilder may be in trouble simply down to the sheer amount of damage he will have taken during the fight.

In comparison (and is Bernstein has said) Joshua has been in a situation where he was hurt but he still had the heart and resolve to battle through and win... we simply do not know if Wilder can do the same.

Read between the lines...

He's stated he has seen AJ in trouble and come back and not Wilder. So if AJ takes the punches and it goes late, we have seen AJ come strong at the end although he does have a round or at least 30 secs of gasping.

AJ has size on him which usually means you can take more damage generally. His size and strength may wear Wilder down...

Where do these gym-stories come from?

wilder fans clinging on to stories about aj being dropped, come back when you got proof

"Joshua is probably technically a better fighter than Wilder. Wilder is quicker, has better movement, is more difficult to figure out because he’s so unorthodox and unconventional sometimes."

Uhmmm...did this guy just say that both fighters are technically better than each other? Hahaha, well!
