Pretty pointless I would say. I only want to see him fight Wilder if I’m honest. I wouldn’t mind seeing him fight Fury, but if Fury fights again, HE HAS TO FIGHT USYK.
No point fighting the likes of Dillian Whyte or anyone else.
He doesn’t need to rebuild like some have said, because he isn’t going to meet someone that poses the problems Usyk does.
He didn’t take a bad KO or anything, he just got beaten by the better man and more importantly, it’s likely that Usyk would do that to any HW Out there.
Great points. The one area I would (respectfully) disagree/differ is that I think it is important for AJ to get a couple of easy wins to get his confidence back. These shouldn't be once a year fights, they should be over the span of six months or so to keep him in the ring and active. I have always thought the Wilder fight was the most fascinating due to styles and mental make up of both fighters. Both late to the sport of boxing yet able to overcome that deficit through hard work, determination, grit, and athletic gifts. Each flawed in their own, unique way- Wilder a little too right hand crazy/one dimensional while Joshua has a pretty good arsenal of punches (not on Usyk level but who is?) but stamina issues. Joshua is a beast of a man who can muscle Deontay and will likely win the early rounds, with Deontay having the mindset, will, and punch to end things in the last round if necessary. I love this fight- it will be more aesthetically pleasing than Wilder-Fury and/or Usyk-AJ.
