In the first Ruiz fight it was Ruiz who was backing AJ up most of the fight even before the knockdowns. Will Fury back AJ up also if they ever fight? Does AJ have enough confidence in his defense and chin to stand in front of Fury? History says AJ will not take chances early in the fight and he will fall behind in points and need to be the aggressor at some point if he has any chance to win.

100% he will. The guy weighs over 300-pounds. Joshua will have to take changes to win this fight,

No, he won't. Fury fought on the front foot for one fight and now he is Mike Tyson all of a sudden? No

Doesn't Josh do well backed up.? I think he likes it

I’m not sure, I think Fury can win either way. He could outbox AJ on the back-foot and could also out fight him on the inside.

If fury try’s to back Joshua he gets knocked out even quicker......fury might have muscled up a skinny legged wilder but he won’t do it with a 245lb puncher in Joshua.
if he fights that way it’s Christmas come early for Joshua.

To paraphrase GSP when he fought Bisping. Fury will do whatever he wants, whenever he wants, vs AJ.

- -Sounds like the OP is backed up in desperate need of a laxitive.

I can see him being slick and countering until he's got Joshua gassed, and then backing him up.

I dont think he will. Not nearly as much as he did vs Wilder. Doing that would be a dangerous and could play into Anthony Joshuas game if Johsua can get on the inside.

The interesting thing is that Fury and Joshua had to change their styles in their rematches vs Wilder and Ruiz. I think they go back to their old ways.
