Legendary American boxer Roy Jones advises Anthony Joshua hold off with a megafight against Deontay Wilder.
“Going into a fight with Wilder after two defeats from Usyk makes no sense at all. Do you understand me? This is not the direction you are moving in. Fight someone else who isn't a puncher like Wilder. Get back in the ring and start winning again. Then try to feel comfortable with the adjustments your coach will make you make. Once you feel comfortable with the changes, fight Wilder.
I hope these adjustments make you a better person. Have a couple of fights and get better at the same time. And then you will have a good fight with Wilder. You can beat him, it's quite possible. But you have two defeats from Usyk, your confidence has already begun to decline. And Wilder can hit you. It will be crazy.
I would advise Joshua not to fight Wilder until he wins and feels comfortable in the ring. After that, fight with Wilder. Deontay is not just a heavyweight, but one of the toughest punchers at the moment. You can't go wrong with him. If you make a mistake with Wilder, then the fight could be over," Jones said in an interview with YouTube channel iD Boxing.
