    If the question is who would I'd rather train, the slam-dunk answer for me is AJ. Wilder is a bigger project for any trainer. Too many things to fix, which may or may not be fixable. I like Wilder, don't get me wrong, but he's gotten away with a lot of things because of his strength and athleticism. To those who like a blank canvas to work with, Wilder would be a formidable project, mainly because he's got so many pro fights under his belt. What's the saying... it's hard to teach an old dog new tricks?

    AJ is another story. Not saying he's the complete package yet... but let's not forget he just finished knocking out a very determined, FINALLY offensive-minded Wladimir. Plus... he survived a knockdown by Wlad to do it. At this point I think AJ is at a much superior technical place than Wilder.

    After his recent weigh in AJ may have to work on the weight and extra muscle. All the outside interference can't help much either.

    AJ is as complete a package as anyone else right now.

    I would want to train Wilder.

    As someone already said, he is more of a blank canvas and you could mound his style to be something truly unique.

    Joshua is already down the route of technical orthodoxy. He has quick hands and power, but he does lumber a bit and he was known in the amateurs for being a bit chinny

    Wilder is not a blank canvas, if he was he would have improved his boxing skills by now. Some of the punches he throws would not be out of place outside a club on Saturday night.

    Too much muscle imo.

    He needs to really get behind that jab and make stamina and slickness his priority.

    No, Lighter. He was too heavy against Wlad. 17 stone to 17 stone 3lbs is the weight he should be.
