    Neither guy is knocking the other out in the first half of the fight, if at all.

      Would you rather crash your car into a motorbike or a truck? Size does matter.

      Once you get to a decent level it doesn't really matter who Wilder fights. He either knocks them out or gets outboxed because that's all he's got.

      AJ v Fury is far more interesting. Two boxers and two big men.
      Sure Wilder swings for the fences but in the last 5 years he's been better at his delivery with straight arm rights knocking people out. He laid out Ortiz in the 2nd with a straight right. He hit Ortiz with many straight rights in the first fight and at the end caught him with an upper. He laid out Breazeale with a straight right. He laid out Fury in the first fight with a straight right followed by a left hook (though fury got up). I can keep going... You don't get lucky just winging it throwing for the fences for 40+ opponents.

      I've seen AJ load up plenty of times to knock someone out and he is not as powerful as Wilder. Look at the first Ruiz night. He loaded up and drilled Ruiz but Ruiz ate it and did not fall. He did it to Whyte many times during thst fight. He did it to Breazeale also. I can keep going... Those guys all stood. AJs power is in his combos and catching people with uppers. He never laid anyone out with a straight like wilder does... At least not that i can remember.

      If size matters, which in cases it does, wilder wouldn't have the highest knockout percentage and AJ, Ruiz, Fury, Breazeale would... Just look at Mike Tyson for instance in his early career. He's always been the smaller guy and he was knocking out giants compared to him.

      The car analogy is a bad comparison. It makes no sense comparing a fighters delivery of a punch and power to an opponent as smaller knockout artist are putting people to sleep. If you crash your car going 1 mph into a truck there's less damage to both. If you crash your car into a motorbike going 100 mph both en****** will have significant damage.

        AJ has no choice but to come forward an walk Fury down an attack the big mans body!

        Needs to make it a tough an rough war, force exchanges on the inside!

        Joshua has a really good uppercut, whenever Fury decides to fight dirty he’s gonna need to use it either below the belt or whenever Tyson tries to lean on him so under the chin perhaps!

        No way is he out boxing Fury, he needs a stoppage win!

        This is a very big uphill battle for AJ as Fury as nearly every advantage except power!
