Anthony Joshua v Alex Povetkin

[old-school-lifter]

just watched the fight

AJ really needs to improve his Defense

he holds his Left hand way too low and is wide open for a right hand counter over his jab- povetkin caught him once or twice like that,

[SuperTed]

WIlder has also fought a much better quality of opponent than AJ

How? Stiverne, Ortiz and Arreola are the only wins on his record that can be regarded as good ones. The rest is littered with bums or ageing journeymen.
AJ has defeated a legend (albeit a faded one) in Wlad, unbeaten prospects like Parker and Whyte. He's now defeated a former champion and top contender in Povetkin.
Wilder has also been a pro for 4 more years then AJ has. Wilder spent the first several years of his pro career just padding up his record.

So Povetikin didn't pull off the upset but gave it a really good try by the sounds of reports

AJ better fight Wilder before someone upsets AJ and he loses a  $50 million plus payday for a WIlder fight

AJ is ducking Wilder

Wilder has improved with each outing, his KO of Stiverne in the rematch shows he's more skilful.
WIlder has also fought a much better quality of opponent than AJ

sure AJ is techinically better but he wont have all the usual physical advantages like the height, weight and reach against Wilder

WIlder will KO AJ

You do realize he changed his stance up specifically for the Povetkin fight.  Review Parker and Takem, fighters similar to Povetkin in height. He tends to come forward with a high guard but Povetkin is a magnificent hooker.  Hence it was more movement, jabbing to the body and taking steam off of Povetkin's punches and wearing him down late
.  
The 50 million you guys keep crying about was Fish Eyes aka Frank Warren (which he confirmed several weeks ago), not Al Haymon.  AJ has an exclusive network deal.  Warren knows this but also knows the dumb rock boxing fans (so says Bob Arum) are idiots.

Lastly, Warren confirmed that Wilder and Fury have been negotiating since June. That means Wilder and Haymon were bum hunting an unprepared Fury (out of boxing for almost 3 yrs b/c of peds, drugs, and alcohol and just returned vs two BUMS!) vs fighting Joshua this yr.

Also, take into account. Joshua offered Fury a similar deal to Ward/Kovalev which would prepare him for a big UK battle, but Fury, like Khan (afraid of Kell Brook), doesn't want to get KO'ed in front of 100k people in Wembley, so he'll let Wider put him in a coma for money like Canelo did to Khan.

Hence, Fury and Khan are made from the same cloth.

the guy is obviously trolling to say wilder has fought better opponents than aj. stiverne and arreola are bums, the only decent fighter wilder has fought in 40 fights is ortiz and he struggled like fk against him for 10 rounds. and ortiz is only chisora/whyte level.

it's laughable wilder trying to say aj is ducking him when you look at their respective records. but boxing is about money, joshua is taking on all comers and filling out 90,000 seater stadiums and getting £10-20 million a fight , while wilder is fighting bums in alabama and getting a 10th of that.

so for the fight to happen wilder has to be realistic and accept that AJ is by far the main attraction and the purses need to reflect that.
