    Joshua didn't gas out

    Only good thing I can say about what I just watched.

    He didn`t gas out because he fought a guy that barely threw any punch.

    Give him somebody with the pulse and he gasses out again.

      Improved and looked more comfortable as the fight went along, also didn't look hurt by any of the clean shots Franklin landed. These are all tiny victories though, overall a C performance but enough to win comfortably. Needs to get back in camp with James and keep working

        The pace wasn’t outside his comfort zone. After 2 with Usyk, this fight was downhill with the wind at his back

          He is still top 5 in the world IMO. I see him and Joyce as 50 -50 fight. Both guys barely move their heads.

            He will when he fights someone that causes more mental fatigue, that's what really causes fighters to gas.

            Any world level fighter can pretty mucn do 12 rounds without gassing if the pace is somewhat comfortable, they do it in sparring a few times a week in camp.

              Joshua will quit in that fight. He does not have the will.

                Yes , he didn’t gas out but didn’t do much more than that

                  I can't really remember the last time I didn't see AJ gas in a fight.

                  I can't remember Ruiz II so maybe that? He was very light on the scales and was boxing past a whale of a man on the night.

                  But he was massively tired vs Pulev who he beat from pillar to post.

                  He's a big muscular guy so it's not shocking but yeah I do expect him to tire a lot over a 12 round fight and I think I probably expect him to lose to a lengthening list of the top heavies today now he's not aggressive and fearless.

                  He's had a great career really but I think he reached his zenith a while ago now.

                    I like Joyce and I know they sparred lots and you would have to imagine that AJ largely got the better of him in the team GB camp.

                    So with that said...

                    It is gonna look like all other Joyce fights. He's gonna get lit up for 3-4 rounds and then with all due respect to AJ. Joyce will beat the s.hit out of him.
