AJ-Wlad - Wembley

[Batman]

I don't dislike AJ but I'm not a huge fan of him, he has this real sly sort of arrogance about him if you ask me, I know that fighters need that (especially the heavys) but I can't help but want Klit to win.

And I think he will unless like a lot of others have said father time has caught up with him.

AJ wins and he is a Fucking mega star, the media loves him so he will get the respect that Fury would have got if he wasn't such a polarising character

I don't even think we'll get a chance to see if age has caught up on Wlad, Fury hardly hit him and he looked old and scared from the off.

AJ will come forward and attack him and will simply throw him off if he tries to hug him as he's so strong, I don't see him being able to handle AJ's power for too long and getting banged out inside 6 rounds

When a fighter is desperate he will fight hard, Wlad was hurt against Pulev and producers a devastating knock out. AJ has been wobbled so we could see a stoppage the other way.

[Mark TKO]

Although I think Master is a moron he's right we don't know how good AJ is.

I just hope Wlad has something left and we actually find out.


Like others have said I'm really trying to like AJ but not warned to him yet - he's certainly not in the Khan or Audley bracket though.

With a gun to my head and having to put my house on it I would say.......AJ round 3

[Primo Carnera]

I am a little surprised at how many either don't like AJ or would want to dislike him.
Maybe it's because of Eddie Hearn, or maybe because he's champ but we don't know how good he is.
I know he's not proved much yet, but I don't think that's his fault.
I would've thought the Brits would be all over him. After all, what's not to like?

[Mark TKO]

And the answer is I don't know but I don't dislike him.


It maybe that I'll never get behind a fighter again like I did Benn and Lewis back in the day.

Maybe it's because they're all multi millionaires after a handful of fights these days without proving their pedigree.

I hate the modern footballer too

But admittedly it's not their fault.

AJ win and then Bellew will blow him out inside of two rounds at Goodison Park

I know what you mean about being multi millionaires without proving themselves or even being any good. That's why I can't take to the likes of Eubank Jr. BJS, Khan etc.
I personally don't put AJ in their bracket, but each to their own. It just surprises me.

I think AJ has had it relatively easy and the path to the world title has been without too many issues. To win a world title should mean the fighter going at least to points before they become champion.

What, so you equate the longer a fight goes as to how tough a fight is? So Tyson Fury went to points absorbing an average of 4 punches a round, whereas someone could have a tough fight that went 8 or 9 rounds and had moments when they were in deep water and came out the other end.
you need to get into your head that AJ has a lot of power and this is the heavyweights. He may NEVER go 12 rounds! I'm not saying he is gonna knock everybody out, he may get KO'd or stopped himself.
Does he need to extend a fight so it goes the distance, just so people can feel he is progressing?
Usually when people use this line of critique, it's so that when they eventually do go the distance, people can have something to pick holes in, which is a bit negative imo.
for the record, I reckon he'll do 12 rounds comfortably, but we may never find out.

Looks like I've gone with the majority here, I've voted AJ via KO but I still maintain that if Klit has anything left then he will cause a shock

Do you get many splinters in your ass from sitting on that fence?

constantly

I think Joshua will win, he's too strong and too young for the current faded, inactive version of Klitschko.

Wlad, despite being past his prime, would still likely beat anybody else, but not Joshua.

However, I'll be rooting for Klitschko because he is underrated as an all-time great heavyweight, and because although he's age 41, he's taking on the best prime heavyweight in the world.

[erics44]

what if wlad won tho

wouldn't that be totally shit?

we'd have to watch him hold small guys for 12 rounds at least a couple more times

No it would not. If Wlad beats AJ then it would confirm that he is a great heavyweight champion not just because of the record number of defences but also because he can come back from a defeat at his age.

If Wlad won I am sure there would be a rematch or Wlad would try and unify against Wilder.

So the future would be bright.
