While this will be a dangerous fight for both fighters, I feel I have to say, If they trade shots and AJ gets caught clean, he's not getting up. It would be extremely ****** if that is in any way, any part of his fight plan. They may feel a little emboldened after witnessing the short lived success Ortiz had when he traded with Wilder - But it really is fools gold. Ortiz is a south pole and positioned himself just outside Wilders lead foot, pretty much negated Wilders jab and forced Wilder to throw the right across his body, which of course makes the punch a little easier to time, counter, and in a position where trading blows was safer. Also Ortiz is lighter on his feet and faster than AJ. AJ won't have these benefits when he fights Wilder, not to mention Wilder will be throwing punches up, which means the punch will have more power. AJ needs to use his boxing skills and not get into any trades with Wilder, and god bless him if he gets caught on the ropes. AJ defeats Wilder in a boring fight, those odds are extremely good. High contact fight AJ goes down hard.

Some good points, yes. I would say though, that in trading bombs, it's 50/50 who gets dropped. I think both are fairly close in accuracy, in fact Joshua is a little better in that dept. But yes, Wilder has a bit more power.

You plan to go to war!!!??? Mofo you have no choice in the matter because Wilder is coming for your head! All Joshua has to do is win and he has my respect.

you don't have to worry your head, he is going for the win.
AJ= Spactacos

Never heard a heavyweight champ sound as unsure of his self as this guy here. The way he talks is very alarming for a heavyweight considering at some point in your career you shall be knocked the **** out and have to bounce back. I can't see this guy having the mentality to bounce back. If I was him I'd retire after Wilder win or lose. No confidence can be very costly in the squared circle.

This shows you know nothing about boxing son.

Agreed. His wide stance makes him a deceptive target as he can change distance simply by *****g his weight in a foot or the other. Again, while I agree that it is dangerous for Joshua to press in, I can't see any other way for him to get a win. Maybe than he can land a good punch, anyway, that's why I give it 75/25 in Wilder's favor as Joshua only have a puncher's chance

Well said. It might be his best bet but it leaves him open to the right hand. AJ parries the jab well but leaves his head open on the side to a right hook or straight right. It happened repeatedly in the fight against Parker and other fights too.

Wilder will not allow AJ fight up close because he does not stand in one place and the threat of a Wilder counter is enough for AJ not to be ******. Ortiz tried to get up close against Wilder but struggled all night. It was only when Wilder himself chose to stand and throw multiple right hands that Wilder got caught with a counter. AJ better hope for that and a weakened or sick Wilder.

I don't think AJ cares about the respect of a scum bag troll such as yourself.

And even if AJ beats Wilder, you'll still be as poisonous as ever. In fact, probably more so.

You're a ****ing bitter little weirdo, that's all you are. A worthless nobody on a forum.

Wow... I thought I was the only person in this forum that has identified that scumbag as a bittered fellow. The guy never sees any thing from AJ.

What is a war? Is that throwing more than 3 jabs per round?

[Laligalaliga]

AJ was very tentative, had a paid off ref in his corner and intentionally used loose tape to slow the fight down or cause disruption whenever he got close to being in trouble. Combined with Parker's own conservative tactics and the public were royally ripped off. This is why people often see boxing as a big scam.

People that have never paid a dime to see a live boxing match wants to tell us what a big scam is.
