    What an absolutely delusional fanboy loada.

    Reality,
    Fury skooled a 39 year old Klitschko who because of Fury's relentless movement couldn't get a punch off in let's be honest a piss poor fight to watch.
    Aj in let's be honest again a brilliant scrap but through lack of skill & movement had to go life & death with a slower more shot 41 year old Klitschko who had Aj done & gassed, but at that age unfortunately father time took over. Only age beat Klitschko that night not Aj, the 39 year old that Fury beat probably stops Aj.

    Who's Aj beaten that isn't 38-41 and shot? Martin, Paker & Ruiz. Whoopee do. Oh add Whyte who was ranked 24 at the time.
    Who's he beat!?

    Idrr.

      Could say the the same about Fury or anyone at HW tbf.

        Yea, this kid is so delusional it's really not worth a reply but sometimes against better judgement you can't let these clowns run riot. I've also asked the question so many times as to who Joshua has actually beaten and only one (dan-b) had the balls to answer and even he can only come up with the truth.

          Right? A 39 v 41 year old Klitschko is splitting hairs. So putting aside that shared win it comes down to how much stock one places in Fury's win over Wilder.

            I have no dog in this fight as I don't like either of them. Joshua was always overhyped by the British media and Fury is just a terrible human being.

              Well Wilder's hasn't got better wins than AJ so wouldn't make sense to rate him too highly or consider him a major player.

                I'm honestly fed up with both of them. Such a lot of talk, hype and bluster with so little delivered.

                  As it was Barry Hearn regarding this article I'll quote him ....pre Joshua being destroyed , hammered and humiliated by Ruiz ...Barry Hearn I quote ' if we don't fight Wilder for the next ten years then I'll take that' ... the man that controlled Joshua and still has a say, no doubt...They knew what would happen to Joshua just as they knew recently when he was offered £40m and everything else v Fury .Joshua and his weak chin and fans are tiresome.

                    I think that's a non-sequitur comment. Whether AJ ducked Wilder or not doesn't necessarily make it a good win for Fury.

                      But we all know 'they' were good wins against a guy that had knocked out everyone he'd faced. Lets cut to the chase here , you state Joshua's best wins are Wlad, Whyte and Parker ...I've said I agree Wlad was nearly three years older than when he fought Fury and couldn't pull the trigger when he had Joshua hurt , Whyte has proven to be just the equal of the status Parker has , just down from the big boys Fury and Joyce and of course Usyk. Hearn has done a spectacular job making Joshua a business man and the money that comes with it but you must know and I've read your posts , I think you do, that Joshua has avoided the big fights Wilder and Fury and saw Usyk as a name from cruiser that would not have turned out the way it did. Joshua's main game now is to fight weak 'warm up (why a warm up...more easy money?) and then go fight Whyte who looked shyte recently ,at Wembley Stadium for his 'big fight' against a guy who is on the down and he has already ko'd . I agree with Jonny Nelson here AJ should take a year out and sniff around the American gyms and learn and get his head straight , I personally thought he looked as good as he can last time out even though he lost and should maybe have stuck with Garcia and go over there ...one of the two. Anyway enough of Joshua ....I'm bored.
