Fury is about the only heavyweight i think could outbox Wilder for 12 without taking a huge shot at some point. Szpilka had him missing for 9 rounds with good movement and Fury is levels above him in every aspect. I think he could do it for a full fight.
I still think Wilder also has the best shot at beating Fury too though. I think Fury at his best would school a very orthodox fighter like AJ comfortably but Wilder would have a better chance because he is a bit harder to read and not quite as straight forward. Definitely would be an interesting fight.
Both beat AJ in my opinion for different reasons. Stiff, upright AJ will be an easy target for Wilder and he'll get him at some point. And for Fury, i don't think AJ has much in his game to trouble Fury at all, if Fury is fully focused. Joshua is very orthodox, does things well but i think it would be an easy style for Fury and would make him look basic.
That's assuming he can get back to his best.
Everybody on paper has always talk down on AJ before an opponent but they all went down... That's the beauty of boxing.
