Wilder has a punchers chance against AJ for sure but he's very predictable, he just lines up that right all day long, AJ hits hard as well remember that.
I'm confident Wilder will land something heavy on AJ at least once.
He's done it every fight and even managed to find Fury with a haymaker and Fury is the most elusive HW we've seen since a young Ali.
The question is can AJ take it?
Depends, no one can take a right hand from Wilder on the chin ........... however.
This is nothing new, all boxers prepare to defend against someone throwing punches.
I'd also add, after Wilder got rocked by Breazeale of all people, can Wilder take a punch from Joshua ........... no fkin chance.
Both have power, both can KO each other, Wilder has the quicker hands, Joshua is stronger has the better guard and defence.
Joshua can walk Wilder down somewhat and if he traps him Wilder's in trouble, or if AJ comes in stiff he'll get flattened.
I think Joshua will have an advantage near the ropes while Deontay will have the advantage in the centre of the ring, AJ will be wary about throwing hands in space because his muscled arms won't match Wilder's speed.
AJ has to be the bully in this fight, guard up, carefully walk Wilder down, pin him on the ropes then go for it.
if AJ tries to trade centre ring he's losing unless he catches him with a vicious 1'2 without being countered.
All to play for among the top 3.
