I thought it was a good fight, but i dont agree with any of this one of the greatest heavyweight fights of all time talk at all.

One of the greatest Heavyweight title fights I can agree on though... I mean, when was the last time we've seen a great heavyweight title fight, Lewis-Klitschko? Both guys tasting the canvas in serious trouble only for both to recover leading to a KO finish near the end of the fight. That's that high drama feeling we haven't seen at heavyweight period, let alone a grand stage as this.

pretty much agree on all the facts and pointers :wow:

It's too easy of a combo to defends for him to get hi9t byu that same combo 5 times in a row. Wilder would have made him pay for those mishaps heavily.

Where do you see AJ go from there ? Honestly, I feel that Stiverne could beat him at this point. I'd give Stiverne a 40% chance

for a big guy i wish he knew how to use his height and his reach. cant create a steady workrate so for guys he cant get out of there, and there are going to be guys he cant get out of there, he may be prone to being outworked. not going to be saved by one big shot every time. i think he probably gets hit too much to have a dominant reign. in some ways he is a new primo carnera. he was big. he was strong. he was intimidating. and whenever he got in the ring he was skating on thin ice. i think a lot of guys can probably beat joshua. but remember primo carnera beat a lot of good boxers. guys who were supposed to box his head off.

yep and it actually surprised us man.

I thought it would be a jab n grab fest like fury/wlad......ehhh wish wlad fought like this his whole career, but I guess no need to since his comp was never his level to give him a problem when he started dominating.

lol good name drop...

but I actually thought josh boxed/countered okay in the first 4 rds before he got tired.

what would u do to improve josh stamina? cause I think that's his biggest flaw right now.

He's got too much muscle mass plain and simple. His recovery is insane tho because we've seen him completely gas out early in fights against Whyte and Klitschko but he always recovers and still has enough to stop fights late on.

Who hits harder?

Wilder or Joshua?
Joshua is probably more heavy handed when it comes to bang it out from mid range and close
but Wilder is more explosive from the outside if he can gain momentum.

So if he has place and momentum then Wilder hits bigger, he is a one punch KO guy with his straight right
but when it comes to bang it out from mid range and close I think Joshua has heavier hands
