Could AJ use the same strategy against Wilder as he used against Ruiz?

[champion4ever]

No, because Wilder has very quick feet for a man his size. He covers a lot ground and closes the gap and distance very fast.

For a shorter man attempting to defeat Deontay Wilder at long range with no head or upper body movement is not a good strategy. His overall physical and athletic advantages of both height, reach, length and foot speed would be too much to overcome.

In addition, he will eventually catch and stretch you. The best way for Anthony Joshua to defeat Deontay Wilder is at short to mid range.

[bojangles1987]

He absolutely shouldn't. Range gives Wilder the space he needs to wing those big punches. He needs to stay closer so he can negate Wilder's power a bit.

[Redd Foxx]

It's the only way he'll be able to fight Wilder (to keep moving) but even if it's his best bet, it doesn't really work because Wilder has reach and can move. Eventually that chin will get cracked and I think that's why they've kept AJ away from Wilder.

[El_Mero]

He can, but wilder will always have the right hand. Wilder has been outboxed b4 in fights, most recently Fury and Ortiz 2.

What's funny is b4 the 1st ruiz fight, it seemed to most that Wilder was kept away from AJ. Now the talk is Wilder khtfo, without question.

I was thinking the same....gotta get in wilder's chest and throw at will. Wilder is best when he has the distance for his long arms/punches

Yea, I always insisted AJ was a little chinny and people acted like I was crazy. Well, the truth comes out over time and in that time we've seen Wilder weather huge punches and AJ not only get dropped repeatedly, but fail to recover well.
I don't think AJ is bad. He's a better all around boxer than Wilder. This is just a terrible matchup for AJ.
