    All this back-and-forth media stuff is annoying. Hearn probably wants Joshua to fight someone easier as this fight “marinates”. Could be another Mayweather-Pacquiao in terms of waiting for them to agree on a contract, but Wilder isn’t a draw unlike the other 3.

    Hearn Made the Shit “Bizarre” from the Outset, with That 12.5mil Flat Fee Nonsense...Then He Flat Out LIED Saying the Bout Would Only Generate 40-50mil After Expenses, Per His “Estimates”...

    Joshua-Wilder Gererates MORE than 12.5mil In AMERICAN PPV Alone, Nevermind English and Worldwide PPV...Or Site Fees, Merchandising, Comcessions, etc...

    This Ain’t Floyd-Manny or Floyd-McGregor, But Joshua-Wilder Would Do TREMENDOUS Business...To Even ATTEMPT To Cap Wilder at 12.5mil was CRIMINAL...

    Hearn Needs to Understand Shelly Finkel and Al Haymon Have Been Making MAJOR Business Deals Since Young Eddie was a Child, Dreaming of Following In Daddy’s Footsteps...

    He Started the Process with a Bullshit, Disingenuous Offer, Period...

    In an Overall Sense, Joshua’s the A-Side, Undoubtedly...But he Isn’t in America...

    Of the Current Wave of Showtime Fighter’s, Wilder Gets the Biggest Ratings...

    That Said, Even if Joshua-Wilder Takes Place On American Soil, 60% of the Profits (Minumum) Should RIGHTFULLY Go to Joshua...

    I can't wait to see AJ knocked out like a bum

    I have been very critical of "windmill wilder" but you can't argue his success and his one-two is quick.. also he is not as easy to hit as he looks.

    AJ does not have very good head movement really.. I think he will get hit by that big long right hand and be on QUEER STREET

    Same here actually. Wilder is prone to burts of extreme wild scrubbiness, so kind of looks worse than he is.

    AJ is both hittable and tepid, I do actually favour Wilder to khtfo (habhavhja habahhkaahvahvavajvaha) :D

    Wilder is good, and is better than he looks for sure, and as I mentioned before, that power is scary as fuck.

    Agreed, and don't you think it's weird that for a guy that is as huge and powerful looking as Joshua, he doesn't seem to have much physical presence in the ring?

    Especially against top opposition. OK he stopped wald pussy - fragile, 40 year old wald pussy, behind on the cards - and Takam, but in all 3 of his recent fights he hasn't looked particularly dangerous to me. Not that powerful, and not particularly explosive. At no point in those fights did he seem like this imposing force, or dangerous puncher.

    Just a big basic robot.

    I don't even dislike the guy really, but he's become overrated and his robotic style is boring af, so I look forward to Wilder blasting him into bolivian.

    Parker looked like a blow up cruiserweight and really wasn't in danger..

    I just would like to see Wilder knock AJ out cold and then mount him and thrust on him

    What I find the weirdest is that against the early bums, AJ seems to be a destructive puncher. Yet, as soon as he upped his opposition, he looked to have decent power at best. I guees most of the early bums were only intimidated by his physique

    You're definitely LOK, lol.

    Wilder has but a puncher's chance in this one. I expect Joshua to fuck him up.

    AJ hits hard. He's not a one punch KO guy like a Lennox Lewis or Wilder but he's Bruno level of power IMO. What makes AJ dangerous is that he's able to use those heavy hands and deliver serious punishment with his large repertoire of punches and his underrated combination punching ability. He puts his punches together better than most great heavyweights in history. The last big man to put punches together like AJ does is Riddick Bowe.


    (edited to add: Of course Louis, Holyfield and Tyson were superior in terms of combination punching, but they were small heavyweights)

    AJ's strength is his overall offense. His defense leaves a lot to be desired but he's not as hittable as you'd think. He doesn't do anything fancy but he knows how to get just out of range with a subtle step back and then get back into position to hurt his opponents.

    Now Multiply That 500K by $59.99. Nearly $30mil.

    Personally, REED Thinks Joshua-Wilder Does MORE than 500,000 American PPV Buys AND It’ll Cost More Than $59,99...

    Joshua’s Also Fought SMALLER, QUICKER Men in That Span, Whose Main Objective was to NOT Get Hurt...

    Who’s CONSISTENTLY Engaged Joshua the Way Wilder Ultimately Would???...

    Wilder Will Be AVAILABLE for Joshua, and if Joshua Had Wilder as Badly Hurt as Ortiz Did, There’s a GREATER Probability Joshua Finishes Him...

    Joking aside, there are so many things not correct in this post that I can only presume you are trolling.

    I was one of the first on this site to mention a comparison with Bruno. I stand by it. Joshua is a very big, rangy guy with heavy muscles who has a very robotic style and who has struggled late in fights because he is too muscular and needs to suck in a lot of air, which causes him to gas as the fight goes on. Very Bruno-esque.

    However, the one thing Frank definitely had that Joshua doesn't isn't one-punch KO power. Bruno laid guys out, and I mean out, with single punches. Mostly chumps, but out they went. Who has Joshua laid spark out with a single punch? I can't think of a single guy...

    Bruno only ever laid out bums.

    He hit Lewis with everything including the kitchen sink and no effect. He never dented Tyson, Witherspoon, Bone Crusher Smith, McCall...basically every decent fighter in their prime he ever faced. Joshua proved more than Bruno in half as many fights...power included.

    AJ didn't throw combos at Parker....because Parker was in it to survive; just moving around and posing. But against Wlad and Whyte you saw that combination punching.

    Lol, you probably never saw the fight, bar maybe the ending, or you are trolling. He wasn't throwing any decent combos in the Wlad fight

    Eh? Bruno hurt Tyson with some shots early, kept McCall (who had an ATG chin) honest, had Lewis in trouble early doors...and he laid out pretty much every bum he faced. Most of them got laid out, as in KTFO. Youtube has captured several Bruno one-punch KO's for posterity.

    AJ hasn't laid out anyone. Not a single, solitary fighter has he laid out. None.

    Your hatred of Bruno has blinded you to the one truly world-class attribute he had and is making you say silly things here.
