Wlad has one of the best right hands in history. AJ did a pretty decent job of avoiding it, he did get caught a few times. But showed good gameplanning and defense, joshuas defense is getting underrated at this point hes not as easy to hit as some claim. He keeps up a nice gaurd and slips shots well and counters off of that.
Anthony Joshua Destroys Deontay Wilder

Obscene statement.
Joshua may well beat him but it's a close fight simply because of the power both fighters have. I don't think either of them are particularly skilled boxers, would probably give the slight edge to AJ, but they're nowhere close to Fury/Prime Klit levels either. If Fury can actually get back to what he was I think he will smoke the HW division.Comment

I called it before the fight; That there was no way that Deontay Wilder was going to win a tactical scientific boxing match against Luis Ortiz; Given his amateur pedigree and fundamental background.
He was beating Wilder to the jab and punch all night long. I said the only way Wilder was going to win this fight was to make it a fast paced firefight in which he did.
He had to get closer to shorten the distance in order to land his power punches on King Kong because I knew boxing him off the back foot and from a longer distance Ortiz would just only pick him apart like he did.Comment

Why the hate on Wilder? He KOd a very legit opponent tonight, and his right hand is a real threat to Joshua’s chin. Joshua struggled against Takam last time, so he’s not perfect either.
AJ vs DW will be a great fight for Heavyweight supremacy.Comment

What excuse did I make? .... I gave my prediction which has been the same since day one.
I’ve been here for 7+ years,why would I suddenly leave. More chance you make a new alt and forget Wilder ever existed.Comment

Joshua is definitely the more rounded fighter but that Wilder right hand is freakish and could turn any fight on its head in a second. I'm leaning towards Joshua, but Wilder is dangerous for every minute he's in there.Comment

How is his chin 'far more solid'? He has been buzzed by Molina, Duhaupas and now Ortiz. Not to mention him getting knocked down by Sconiers.I'm not a Wilder fan and I've continually said he's a mess, but you insecure types have to use "fanboy" as ammunition because you got nothing else to back your argument.
You want to pretend Ortiz was garbage but everyone knows he looked great tonight. Wilder v AJ could definitely go either way but I favor Wilder at this point, now that I know his chin is far more solid than AJ's.
Is it more solid because AJ got put on his ass by Wlad? You think if Wilder got hit with that shot the result wouldn't have been the same? That right hand would of knocked down every single heavyweight in the game including Wilder and Ortiz. But not every single one of them would've gotten back up on their feet.
I'd say their chins are about the same, neither's is far more solid than the other's.Comment
