Who would you pick if Joshua vs. Wilder happened?

Joshua has such an awful chin I can't imagine him not getting KTFO in this fight.

I wouldn't describe his chin as "awful", and Wilder isn't packing iron, either, despite his "I wasn't hurt" claims after his last fight.

The power/chin elements are really negligible here... do you really think Wilder would stand up for long if AJ landed flush?

I think povetkin will test Josh but I favour Josh. No point in talking wilder v josh

I think I'm picking AJ here. If he can manage to take Wilders power I think he could stop Wilder around round 7.

AJ has decent power too, I also believe Wilder is packig some glass.

I think Wilder doesn't even need to hit him cleanly, grazing shots might badly hurt Joshua and once he's on those infamous jello legs again I don't think he survives Wilder's finishing abilities.

Fury needs at least another fight before getting back on the world stage. If it happens in December, I'd pick Wilder by KO.

Not sure a lot of people in here actually watch Wilder. That jab and right hand is highly respectable, nothing "Wild" about those punches. I favored Joshua, but based on their lack of confidence in negotiations(IMO) I'm going with Wilder to time and land a big one on Joshua. Joshua needs to bend more at the waist, more upper body movement and he needs get looser. I don't think you let Wilder punch into your guard without getting tested.

See, this is the kind of talk I don't get.

For a start I don't see Joshua's jelly (jello, Fat Yanks) legs as "infamous"... we're hardly talking David Price or Amir Khan here. But it also implies that one is weaker than the other at punch resistance.

The last time I saw Deontay he was getting bashed around the ring by an 86-year-old.

Wilder by knockout all day. Wilder hits so hard even if Joshua tries the high guard to absorb his shots he will get hurt.

AJ is obviously the clear favourite. But Wilder does have a puncher's chance!

joshua, and i imagine he will be clear bookies favourite. A lot of the people talking smack now, will **** themselves if the fight gets made.
