Anyone that doesn’t think wilder is the best at heavyweight dksab

joshua did a better job on povetkin than wilder did ortiz. wilder was nearly out on his damn feet

Now everybody knows why Wildher ducked Povetkin, he's very dangerous.

AJ needs to trust his punching, his hesitancy allows guys to get into the fight. Just throw man, all your punches hurt dudes, you just gotta graze them for them to feel it. Those were BOMBS he landed on Povetkin

The only counter argument I can think of is that he doesn't want to tire himself out early if he doesn't get the KO. Like Wilder he can allow to lose the first half of the fight because his power is an equaliser.

Knocked out another old man congratulations.

I haven’t seen it yet but props to AJ

King Kong would outbox and flatten Joshua. Wilder will spank him. Joshua is a Heavyweight version of amir khan.

Wilder eats Joshua.

the guy who nearly got stopped in his last fight to someone as old as povetkin?

[Raggamuffin]

I had it 4-2 AJ...

As usual, they waited until Povetkin got old so he could only fight effectively for 3-4 rounds. As often happens, the protected fighter, Joshua in this instance, showed he was far inferior the first 3-4 rounds vs the old opponent, just like Ward vs Kovalev, just like Wilder vs Ortiz, but because they waited until Povetkin was 39, just like they waited Ortiz, GGG, and Kovalev out, Povetkin gassed and it only took a couple shots by the 25 pound bigger man to knock out the smaller old tired opponent.

Boxing in 2018, folks. It's all preplanned, WWE bull****. And for the record Joshua looked like absolute ****. This has to be the weakest era of heavyweights in the last 50 years, but they are being hyped by the promoters just to make money.
