    AJ is by far the superior technician, likeable and more likely long term champion. AJ will get better and fought the 2nd best active fighter on the planet.

    Wilder needs to cash in and take on AJ before he gets even better or do a Adonis Stevenson and hide behind mandatories for as long as he is able to.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    You know the training is lacking for Wilder when camp lets a Charlie Z get beat down by him in his gym. And it's filmed. Huge difference I see between the two is professionalism and simple composure. Self awareness and genuine confidence in skills. Wilder sounds more confident in KO than he does his skill set, AJ confident all around. The crazy thing is that even to this day we have zero idea what Wilder does, can do, once he's cracked and forced to make adjustments. Hindsight 20-20 AJ has at least proven trainable in big picture.

    Wilder boxes really well against Stiverne but has since looked terrible. His power is legit but against someone he can't stop I see him falling apart. AJ is more well rounded. Needs to work on defending against the right hand but seems committed to improving.

    A couple fights will make no difference for Wilder, he is what he is. If anything he gets more susceptible each fight because his hands get worse and worse. There’s a reason Wilder wants the AJ fight now and AJ wants it later.

    Both have massive flaws but their strengths are overwhelming. So it’s not so much changing what you are but playing to your strengths. While they don’t fight similarly their strengths are largely similar. Stupid power, overwhelming size and athleticism. One’s more polished, one’s more scary. Polished wins more times than not, but when scary wins it’s spectacular.

    I know that Wlad was past his prime but the way that AJ approached that 11th round knowing that he had to KO Wlad was impressive.

    AJ seems to have more potential to improve and is the A side on the negotiating table.

    AJ is not as robotic like Bruno but would benefit from a bit of the Lennox Lewis jab in his game.

    It doesn't matter who trains Wilder, he's a 30+ fight experienced former Olympian that hasn't changed in years. His team have done a good job keeping him unbeaten, but it's also the reason he's a nobody in America with no respect.

    And Wilder can't understand why he's not a draw.
