Not Foreman?

Foreman is in my Top 5, but Lewis would have been a stylistic nightmare for him. Lewis is just as big as him, probably bigger and Foreman ain't quick enough to get away from that powerful jab

Plus Foreman in the 90s ducked Lennox Lewis. I believe Foreman self admitted it

If Joshua can make it out past rd 6 against wilder he has a chance of knocking him out or a decision. But I'm about 80% sure that doesn't happen :francis:.
AJ does get cringey due to his insecurities but he’ll beat Wilder. Wilder will most likely be one of his easiest fights.

And I’d pick him to beat Fury as well.

Foreman claimed he also ducked Tyson at some point I think he was just being nice.

Idk. AJ loses because he decides to fight his opponents fight. You're a brawler? ( Ruiz) I'll brawl with you. You're a close range and in fighter( Usyk) hey let me do that too. And he decides to do it at the worst times.

He lost cos he’s a dikkhead who’s full of himself & doesn’t understand that styles make fight. When he started feeling himself too much whilst talking about fighting everyone - that was the beginning of his problem. And he has been managed by a greedy snake oil salesman who only see the power of the dollar in short term & not what’s there in long term.

Granted he’s made shytload of money (over £200 million now) but he should’ve followed Mayweather’s blueprint after getting his 2 unification belt & be more patient.

AJ is an upright European style boxer - the Ruiz fight was a fight he should’ve never taken as a replacement fight on short notice with what was at stake & the type of pressure on him for a KO in his US debut. Ruiz is like the Mexican version of Tua (a hooker with very good chin) - you don’t fight a guy like that when the expectation is an explosive fight with a KO. He’s not a mandatory fight & he’s too good to be a replacement fight on short notice.

And with Usyk - AJ should have dropped the belt & hold out for Fury. Usyk is an ATG Southpaw with fast feet & supreme engine. AJ wasn’t ready for Usyk when he fought him.

But with a guy like Wilder who has no skills & fundamentals. He’s a perfect fight for AJ. AJ’s best punch is his lead left hook & Wilder will walk into that punch & he won’t recover. I also like the Fury fight for him - Fury is overrated.

:russ: Make sure you quote me when they fight (most likely next year but I think AJ vs Fury will happen next). Lead left hook.

I told you lot Teo will beat Josh Taylor with ease if he’s on his A-game & that Josh Taylor is overrated. I’m saying the same thing about AJ vs Wilder - it will be one of AJ’s easiest fights.
