IMO if you asked AJ himself, he'd probably prefer Fury. As unorthodox as Wilder is, he still represents a KTFO threat with every punch thrown. AJ probably feels, and rightfully so, that Fury would not be able to get into his head like he did with Wlad. That was pathetic. With no head games and no power, Fury has little else but his own awkwardness and size to bring to the table. I think AJ prefers Fury.
