Some weird stuff has come out lately that makes me question AJ's confidence about the prospect of fighting Wilder. Here's what I mean:
1. he says he is afraid of losing and having it on his record.
2. he says he doesn't want Wilder to climb into the ring during the post-fight interview
3. now this, "freezing out" talk, using politics to avoid Wilder
On paper, I had AJ as the favourite if he fights Windmill, but, taken together, these comments speak to a man that is not confident. He also comes across as pretentious and entitled here, and I don't think that is becoming of someone that likes to tout himself as a role model.
Wilder has the confidence edge when/if they fight.
