AJ should defeat Povtekin, He's too old @ 39 n he is even a white man. Black men are usually stronger boxers than their white counterparts

I would advise Joshua to put a juju ring under his gloves (aluwo in Yoruba)

It didn't help Samuel Peters much vs the Klitschko brothers.

They panel-beated him cry

Peters tried against Wladmir. He knocked Wladimir to the canvas 3 times. Peters' undoing was his lack of stamina. I wouldn't say Wladmir battered him but Vitali did.

Really? Have you forgotten so soon how the Klitchsko brothers dominated boxing for years? Have you forgotten what Vitali did to Samuel Peters

My brother, boxing goes beyond strength. Boxing involves a lot more like style and tactics.

His team not coming up with a good deal to face the champion. That's what it takes to be a champion.


And don't you think Wilder is another Mike Tyson, A beast with no stealth boxing tactics. Trust me, with an AJ, Wilder is a walk over. Stretch him till the end. A knock out wont happen for sure.
There is nothing they haven't offered Joshua to fight Wilder, they even accepted his terms on fight venue and purse, so what's Joshua running from? The truth is that Joshua's team felt he wasn't ready yet for Wilder and they decided it would be better to have at least one more fight before Wilder. And Wilder is the WBC heavyweight champion!! That's the most recognized belt in boxing, the same belt won by all the greats from Ali to Lennox lewis. Isn't it funny that Tyson fury came back after two years of inactivity and agreed to even travel to the US to face Wilder while Joshua keeps shifting the goalpost and giving excuses

Impossible. Povetkin may be old but he is a true boxer. Whenever I watch him, I remember Mike Tyson. AJ has nothing on this guy.

I see the match going to the judges. Povetkin's only loss was to Wladmir Klischko and it went to the judges.

The same washed up Klitchko was adjudged to have put up one of the best fights of his entire carrier that night by boxing experts.

So what are you saying?
that was based on the conflict of styles not form. An out fighter(klitschko) vs a swarmed(Joshua) very similar to ali (out fighter ) vs Frazier( swarmer) . a fight between two contrasting styles is always interesting.

Afraid how??

Who has Wilder fought? His best fight was against an old Ortiz and he lost every round before the stoppage.

Joshua with half as many fights has beaten Klitschko, Dillian Whyte, Breazeale, Parker, etc..

The issue is not fear, it is business/money.


This is the excuse you people keep on making.

Who has AJ himself fought? An old inactive Klischko or a Parker who had just come off an elbow surgery?

It is not like Wilder was running away from big fights. It was his potential opponents that always ended up fucking up. When he should have fought Povetkin, Povetkin tested positive to drugs. When he should have initially fought Ortiz, Ortiz failed a drug test. Wilder has never run away from a fight.

I am not saying he will beat AJ but people should stop making it seem like the man is a coward. AJ may not be afraid of Wilder but it is evident that AJ's promoter (Hearn) is afraid.

strength is number a before any other thing comes to play.

The Klitchkos r very strong, but during their reign there was really no top black boxers in those years (like Tyson AJ Ali, etc). That's why they thrived well. If they met Tyson or AJ, Dem for hear am.

Floyd was never the strongest boxer,he was just smart .Ali, ray Robinson had limited power but great technique. That's why core Africans(not African Americans) mess up in professional and armateur boxing because they lack skill and technique and are busy throwing hay makers to impress their Yoruba fans . I see that all the time on gotv fight night. Boxing is about timing,calculated offence, foot work and of course power and chin.

There were no top black boxers because the Klischko brothers dominated. Stop making excuses!!!

If I went by your logic, then I should also say that blacks dominated boxing at a time when there were not top white boxers like Gerrie Coetzee, Quarry and Morrison and even the Klischko brothers.

do you know what strong means? How do you measure power? What's his ko percentage ? How many boxers did he floor with punches? Floyd picks people apart gradually and was never known for power. He beat more powerful black boxers like Mosley, berto etc these guys were thick black men with sheer power .

big fat lie!!! Do you watch sports at all? Blacks are good in track and field and boxing that's all. They perform badly in any form of wrestling ,judo, high jump, and they fall like dominoes in mma. Blacks have upper body power but very weak legs. Check the records .
Although I don't want to go into the black Vs white bullshit, However it's not factual that blacks fall like dominoes in MMA. I assume you don't follow any MMA fight, you don't even know the current champions nor watched any. I hope you know that 3 of the 6 divisions champs in the UFC, the biggest MMA promotions are black, (the heavy weight, light heavy weight and welterweight)
Daniel Cornier, Jon Jones, Allistair Overeem, Tyrone Woodley, etc have held the division down for years..
There are many sports that are not popular amongst the black Population, they are not just into it, but when they have the opportunity to, they do well. Like in the William sisters in Tennis, although Tennis is not a "black sports".
