    I've long felt that Joshua would be well on top, hurt Wilder, then get buzzed while looking for the finish.

    Similar to how Joshua was buzzed when he had Dubois and Ruiz in trouble.

    Beyonce is truly, truly garbage.

    I think we need to reevaluate just how many heavyweights in history would have whupped Wilder.

    It's not just the greats like Ali, Foreman, Lewis, Tyson, who would have destroyed him; those are too obvious.

    A David Haye might very well have smoked him, as the sparring session indicates.

    Maybe Haye gets caught eventually and KO'd, but he'd be kicking Wilder's ass every moment leading up to the stoppage.

    • I don't care as much as you about records and undefeatedness. Some of the best fights in history have involved guys with losses and guys that many on boards lime this have written off just because the truth came out that they were human afterall and couldn't face top competition and still win every damn fight they're in.

    Unless the loss is controversial and considered a robbery or something along those lines, an undefeated fighter almost always makes for a better, more meaningful fight than the same matchup with losses involved.

    Especially when the fighters are not that good and the only real thing they can point to is their undefeated records which often turn out to be just elaborate feats of engineering worked out by promoters and matchmakers.

    At the time, I favored Joshua due to being better technically.

    After some time, I lean towards Wilder winning by a stoppage after losing most of the fight. I think he’s able to survive the early onslaught at land a huge right hand at some point, which will be the beginning of the end for Joshua.

    I wouldn’t be very confident in the pick though.

    How about AJ vs Wilder with Fury and Usyk in opposing corners.
