Comments Thread For: DiBella: Wilder-Fury Energized Division, Either One Beats Joshua

[removed]

The reality is that Deontay will have a punchers chance against absolutely anyone he’s in with.

Styles making fights, I think AJ v Wilder is still a 50/50 fight. If Wilder lands he can absolutely take AJ out, but AJ is becoming a far better boxer than he was. Hard one to call.

I favoured Fury over AJ pre Wilder, but despite Fury’s showing I think I’m now swinging to Joshua. Joshua would fight more intelligently than Wilder, would try to hit the body more. His size and strength would also present a different problem for Fury.

Fury could still outbox him, but if he doesn’t get the decision against Wilder, I can’t see him winning on the cards against Joshua...

Fury should've got the decision though, he was blatantly robbed.

I don't see how AJ beats Fury tbh, he's looked rubbish against guys who moved a bit (Takam, Parker) and Fury is far superior to those two.

Joshua comes forward in straight lines and fights in the pocket, easy work for a technician like Tyson.

exactly easy work, these brits dont like fury cos he considers himself irish

Wilders first fight with a good fighter and lost every minute of it the knock downs shows he has good power but thats not enough joshua will steam roll him and once aj rattles you he takes you out everytime fury fights a povektein or parker we will see were hes really at not this imitation of a champion wiĺder

Yeah that’s what I mean, as he didn’t get the decision against Wilder, I think he might he might get jobbed again against AJ if it came to a decision (I felt the Parker cards were way off).

I think AJ’s struggles with Takam and Parker, and Povetkin for a few rounds is based on their size too. He tends to struggle with smaller opponents for some reason. Well, I say struggle but KO’d Povetkin and won every round until the dodgy stoppage v Takam.

I can see AJ sticking to a decent strategy against Fury and causing him a few problems. Fight would probably be a stinker, and come down to judging preference again.

Don't under estimate AJ. Yes he has his faults but so does Wilder (One dimensional) and Tyson Fury (Show pony). All it takes is one deadly combination and AJ will snap Wilder in half. He will basically catapult him out of the ring.

this made me laugh (not because I don't believe it)

WILDER was 40lbs lighter than FURY and still knocked him down In the 12th. 2nd fight he stops FURY b4 10.

Amusing seeing all these 'free' opinions about how Fury and Wilder 'definitely' beat Joshua.

If you want the opinion of someone who has money on the line, so doesn't give a toss about any fanboyism, ask a bookie.

Joshua still favourite to beat Wilder and Fury.

i think u guys dont appreciate how hard it is fighting a guy like fury at 6'9 and moves like a welterweight..you are all so quick to dismiss wilder but would joshua really do any better. i see fury playing with joshua and i think wilder vs joshua will be a shootout probably a real fight for the ages but fury's ring generalship and fight IQ is way above either wilder or joshua

Fury will outbox most in the division but I'd give AJ a better chance of laying him out than Wilder. AJ will set up his knockout, Wilder just went looking for it without doing much else.

[techliam]

What did Wilder prove exactly?

If anything, he has proven he is a level below the elites

perhaps but on the other side of the coin AJ isnt as agile or quick as deontay although at least joshua will be capable of throwing some combinations! i just see joshua not having the cardio to deal with fury over 12 rounds he'd have his moments but i think fury's to crafty for him. anyway Wilder vs Joshua should be happening to compete against Fury considering most regard him as No. 1
