Comments Thread For: Hearn: Wilder Still Dangerous, But Joshua Would Absolutely Butcher Him

[Bronx2245]

I just think that whole thing Deontay had, as well as the punch, was that you have to be careful. And Fury just went in and said, ‘I’m not gonna bother being careful and slap you around.’ - Eddie Hearn

That's exactly what Joshua DID NOT do with Ruiz! He was extra careful, and very fortunate that Ruiz came in totally out of shape!

I wonder if AJ would be able to ride the right hands Wilder threw in the first 2 rounds of the Fury fight?

That was weird that Fury got hit by those. Wilder was telegraphing that he was going to throw the right and he still landed.

Having said that they didn't connect flush. Joshua got hit by plenty from Wlad before he went down from a flush shot.

If Joshua goes down though - it's over against Wilder. AJ has no recovery. Takes him about 3 rounds to get his sense back.

As usual people over-reacting to a defeat. Wilder is dangerous to anyone and Joshua has a poor chin and is slower than Wilder. I think this will be a good fight. I'd pick AJ to win but Wilder has a great chance.

And Wilder has a great chin after getting beat to a pulp by a featherfisted gypsy?

Dumb bellend. If Ruiz left hook had landed on Wilder's temple, he'd still be in the hospital right now. The bum got knocked down by a rabbit punch and simple body shot. And his legs went jelly after a stiff jab. LMAO.

And Wilder recovered perfectly against Fury after his legs went jelly because of a stiff jab in the 2nd rd?

****** brainless fccker.

Joshua's jaw lands in the third row.

Shut up.

Ruiz came in with extra weight for power to seek and destroy like Fury did. And he got beat.

The whole world saw Joshua get knocked out by Andy Ruiz. After seeing that embarrassment, I would never bet on Joshua butchering Wilder.

Wilder got stopped by a man that he claims punches as hard as his 2 year old. ..I’m just saying

All those saying “just because Fury beat Wilder” and “AJ isn’t Fury” are daft.

People that have AJ beating Wilder have had “that same energy” since Wilder was badly hurt by ERIC MOLINA, since he was outboxed by Szpilka, easily outboxed by Washington and made to do the bambi dance against Ortiz.

AJ doesn’t have to be Fury to beat Wilder. He’s a superior boxer to Wilder by a long shot; Wilder has proven on multiple occasions he struggles with anybody that has average boxing ability. AJ would be the biggest puncher he’s ever faced; Wilder has been hurt multiple times by guys that aren’t big punchers. AJ is MUCH stronger than Wilder; Fury proved if you use strength he crumbles. Those saying “Wilder is bigger and has a longer reach”...he’s half an inch taller and has a one inch reach advantage LOL he’s already proven against the likes of Molina, Szpilka and Ortiz that he cannot utilise his reach and height advantage.

AJ would not box on the outside like he did with Ruiz. He’d come forward, back Wilder up, throw those heavy hands and pummel Wilder to the ground within four rounds.

Wilder has fought two genuine world level fighters; he got spanked by Ortiz, on both occasions, up until the stoppages and got embarrassingly outboxed and bullied by Fury (and will again).

Wilder gets convincingly beat by the majority of the top ten heavyweights, which is why he avoids them.

Unless joshua is 6ft 9, he has no chance vs wilder. Only guy to beat wilder had height weight reach on his side. Joshua shorter than wilder with shorter arms. Just off of that, I know wilder kos Aj.

Tyson beat Wilder in the first fight. This time round Wilder was pummelled. It was not even competitive .He was hit continuously by pillow fists and stopped on his feet. A corner rarely waves a white flag when their man is the champion , that’s how much he got whooped . He posed absolutely no threat in the fight. The only intimidating thing about him that night was his costume and how quickly he grabbed Tyson’s ankles when he hit the canvas

[Squared.Circle]

All depends on who controls the range.

Personally, I can't see Wilder keeping Joshua at bay and he doesn't have the ability to compete at close quarters.

Exactly. Wilder is terrible at controlling the range, as he’s shown multiple times against fighters not only his size, but guys much shorter. His inside game is absolutely terrible too, as shown against Szpilka and Ortiz. Wilder gets ****** out in quicker and more devastating fashion than Fury bullied him.
