Malik Scott, former opponent, now coach Deontay Wilder (43-2-1, 42 KOs), also not happy with Saturday's victory Anthony Joshua (25-3, 22 KOs) over Jermain Franklin.

A possible meeting between AJ and the Bronze Bomber has been discussed for several years. Now that both have lost their championship belts, it will be easier to organize such a fight. Of course, after the Saturday performance of the Englishman, the American team is unlikely to be afraid of such a challenge.

“Joshua looks a bit cautious in the ring right now. From the moment of the defeat to Ruiz, even in a rematch or a victory over Pulev, he fought conservatively, thinking, first of all, about his defense. He plays tactically, thinks too much in the ring. For a guy as big and strong as he is, who can really crush an opponent, this is not the best solution, ”Scott said.
