[Vermilion]

Stiverne was ****e. But Wilder was accurate.

Stiverne was embarrassingly out of shape....Wilder is just too wild and I still back AJ to knock him out

Wilder for me has only one thing over Joshua and that is speed, both of hand and of body.

Now it is a big thing but Joshua would outweigh Wilder by anything from 20lbs to 35lbs if they met, I think Joshua would be a little more clever in the ring than Wilder and Joshua has been in with better fighters than Wilder.


Would love to see Joshua vs Wilder as I reckon it would be very entertaining and pretty much a slug fest.

Like you I would fancy Joshua to stop Wilder though. Have no idea as to how Wilder would react to being hit clean and hard, but with Joshua we do have some moments to point at that show he reacts well after being tagged cleanly.

So perhaps a classic heavyweight match?

My money would be on AJ inside 4 (entertaining) rounds

Don't know about classic, but I suspect it would be entertaining for as long as it lasted

It is a tricky one to call. Wilder against Stiverne was a mismatch, one of the worst in ****ing years actually. AJ is massive compared to Wilder and Wilder throws way too many telegraphed shots, AJ takes him out I reckon.

Wilder could win of he boxes smart, outlasts AJ & uses his speed. But nothing he has done so far leads me to believe he will do that.

Interesting fight though.

Noticed Haye Bellew II is on a Sunday night. WTF? When was the last time a big fight took place on a Sunday night? Why is it on a Sunday?

[Liverpool]

Pete Tong had already booked the Saturday

Pete Tong had already booked the Saturday

Is that true?

[Liverpool]

Is that true?

yep, the venue is booked up for weeks on end friday/saturday nights so instead of taking a hit on tickets in a smaller arena, pushed it to Sunday

[Shaggy]

Amazing

[labourRed]

Is it on Dave?

[rodo]
