Anthony Joshua vs. Otto Wallin | PPV - 23 December 2023

[joshj909]

Any rumours who Bakole and Dubois will be against? Hopefully they'll be facing each other as a result of this event, similar to AJ/Wilder. Dubois vs Wardley for the British/Commonwealth would be good. I'd like to see Bakole obliterate Miller. Only options for Bakole that would be a step up from Takam would be one of the Top Rank guys (Ajagba/Sanchez/Makhmudov).

Talk of Dubois/Miller. Weirdly I like the fight.

I don't particularly rate Dubois but I would predict a Dubois KO in that one. I can see it looking a bit like Kownacki vs Helenius given Kownacki and Miller both use high pressure without one punch KO power and both block with their head.

That’s how I see it too but I’ve been looking forward to Miller taking a KO.

Wallin on points

Really hope so. Not completely impossible scenario

[funso banjo baby]

Can Joshua knock durable types out at this level anymore?

I don't know why some people measure Joshua on his ability to stop people. Idiots saying he should have stopped Franklin, who to my knowledge has never been down. I don't get it. The only thing that matters is winning. End of.

[Sweet Dick Willie]

Ah, Franklin, my bad...

[jwfg]

Ah, Franklin, my bad...

He might have been down for all I know.

Dubois does not stop Miller bad match up for a quitter. Can see Wallin beating Joshua too.

[jwfg]

Can see Wallin beating Joshua too.

I can see me banging Charlize Theron, but it ain't gonna happen. Well, not unless she likes tall, balding, out of shape, Jewish dudes.

I had that dream too.
Not the boxing one tho and not with you mate.

[jwfg]

Here's a question. If Joshua wins clearly on points in an OK fight, will you see that as a disappointing performance?

Hey, I've never tried a devil's threesome, but, you know....

[cormack]

I don’t get it?

Isn’t FW promoting the 23rd card?

nope

saudi calls the shots

They call the shots but ego and contractual commitments come into it. AJ has an exclusive deal with DAZN. He also has an exclusive deal with Eddie who’d be ant a piece of the action. Frank will want the show on BT no doubt and whilst it may be the right thing to do exposure wise I can’t see Eddie being happy with it.

Will be interesting to see what happens.

well if the card includes aj then it will go out on dazn , but if warren also has a fighter it would probably go on tnt as well and viewers can just choose how they want to watch .
There will be so much $$$$ thrown at it they wont care .

[Phenomenal-Nutrition]

I thought AJ looked clueless against the southpaw angles in the first Usyk fight. He at least managed to set up his shots in the 8th or 9th in the rematch. But he could look bad here if he can't figure Wallin's southpaw angles out.

For what it's worth though I think AJ has a stoppage win over Wallin in the amateurs

[margaret thatcher]

he beat wallin on points in the ams

If miller looks anything like he has post drug ban then DDD puts a horror beating on him and stops him.

Miller was competitive with bracamonte and 43 year old lucus brown… that miller eats so many clean shots that unless DDD breaks both hands on his fat head and quits… DDD by stoppage. .

[si7dog7]

Were you stamping your feet like a petulant child when typed that?

Nope, just having a swig of Stella

Nelson Mandela? My favorite beer.

Mandela “you my dealer”

Look up the Harry Enfield Mandela “crakabis” sketch
Probably removed for eternity

Makes me laugh thinking about it

miller is an accumulation fighter who always starts slow, in those fights he lost 1 round tops combined after the 2nd. he hadnt fought in 4 years going into the bracomnte fight either. i wouldnt be convinced a repeat offender is off peds either, prob just changing his protocol up.

we need to get that dave allen - miller mega fight

[jwfg]

I thought AJ looked clueless against the southpaw angles in the first Usyk fight.

The key word there is 'Usyk'. AJ was fighting an unbeaten Olympic champion, who cleaned up his division and now sits atop of the heavyweights. AJ didn't struggle with a southpaw, he struggled with a future hall of famer, who happens to be a left hander. The idea that somehow Wallin is the second coming of Marvelous Sugar Ray Usyk is complete nonsense.

Complete sense written there.
People picking Walin are grasping for straws in the hope they can in the future say, “ told ya!”
Ain’t happening
Another journeyman / novice who has given Fury fits.
It ain’t even funny. But it is a joke that so many people have been sold on it.

we need to get that dave allen - miller mega fight

A 330lb flat foot, zero head movement, arm punching accumulation fighter who has traditionally relied on throwing 10000 punches a round (probably due to the EPO).

Dave Allen vs miller is a good fight actually, great idea.

Fact still remains DDD would/will stop miller even a semi clean miller.

[quickeyg]

It's on

[The Gratest]

Best post you've ever made Quickers

Otto looking a bit like Frank 'Empty Words' Warren there.
