    I don't see how anyone can say that Wilder would destroy him with any confidence. He only has an edge over him in terms of experience. AJ is technically better, faster and appears to hit just as hard. Wilder has proved he can go rounds and is durable, but he hasn't really impressed over the last 18 months. He is still very raw and novice like at times. He just isn't fighting anybody who can take advantage of all the mistakes he makes. Joshua would be capable of doing that but obviously until he has a chance to prove his own durability, I'd be hesitant to massively favour him. So for now I think it's a bit of a toss up. Both have massive power so one punch could change the course of the fight more dramatically than in most other fights, but assuming that AJ has durability and fitness on his side, he's practically stronger in every other category. 18 months down the line I think Joshua cleans his clock.

    When I said too soon don't think for one minute I would be surprised if Joshua did take him if they were to fight now.

    Maybe Wilder would employ the windmill technique like he did v Audley ??

    Well to compare the 2 , when it comes to style -
    Wilder is a wild bomber .
    Joshua is a calculated bomber.
    Would be fun to watch.

    The one thing that Wilder has over AJ is that Wilder has shown recently he can do 12 rounds no problem. AJ , we obviously don't know about. Mind you , one way or another, that might not be an issue. Wilder is a lot more measured than he used to be.
    I can't imagine Wilder thinking AJ is one of the less dangerous possible opponents, just the usual BS really.

    So wilder wants to fight Joshua but thinks Whyte will beat AJ? Makes sense.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Lets not get ahead of ourselves as hes done one 12 round against someone who aint on you all the time.

    Joshua is on you all the time and if he lands and he would land.. Its over

    Molina rocked wilder and joshua is far more skilled.

    We don't really know if Joshua 'likes' being hit back yet. A pug like Molina is used to it but who knows, Joshua could be taken 12 if deterred by Wilders power plus he is a bit of a plodder and may well be the kind of fighter that burns out after half way. Plus Wilder, as clumsy add he looks, will move, use his length and has an okay engine.
