Comments Thread For: Haye: Maybe Third Spot is As Good As It Gets For Wilder - Maybe Not

[Mindgames]

I don't agree about Fury's pillow fists, I have said for years that he is a puncher. Multiple boxers who have sparred both AJ and Fury say that Fury hits as hard or harder. They have a difference in style, where AJ usually puts all or most of his power into all of his shots, Fury is more of a point scoring boxer, when he goes for it, very few would survive 12 rounds.

I was using Wilders words because before the rematch I was one of the few on here that said Fury hit hard enough to hurt him. But my point is AJ can do at least as much damage to a fragile Wilder as Wilder can to him. Thing is Sconiers had Wilder down, Ortiz and Molina had him wobbled and in the amateurs he was knocked out through a head guard. AJ, while vulnerable, still weathered good hitters like Wlad,Parker, Whyte, Povetkin ect. Wilder hasn't really fought many guys who can punch and aren't shot.Weve seen how abit of technique can negate Wilders right hand, and we know AJ can box abit.Wilders defence is nowhere at all, just so full of holes. I'm confident, as I always was, AJ knocks him out, worse than Fury imo.

AJ would walk wilder down just like fury did, only he hits much harder...

Let’s see if he has the balls to do so. Had the fury fight didn’t happen not one would dare fight like that against wilder. They’d all fight cautiously. Took a smart boxer like fury 12 rounds to figure that out.

But now that the blue print is out there let’s see.

Aj was cautious against a slow plodding ruiz who is not as powerful as wilder.. so that should tell something

Aj has said all along how to fight Wilder, he was cautious as Ruiz absolutely kills him with his fast hands on exchanges.
Wilder hasn’t got fast hands, can’t fight going backwards, definitely can’t fight on the inside .

We’ll see. One mistake he’s still going to sleep so saying AJ is a sure win over wilder is plain ******. When was the last time Joshua fought on the inside? He usually box at a distance then goes for the kill if the opportunity arises.

My Top 5:

1. AJ


2. Fury


3a. Dillian Whyte
3b. Andy Ruiz
5. Povetkin

Wilder isn't in my top 5. He hasn't beat anyone. Ortiz isn't ranked in my top-15.
