Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua: I Need to Get My Fighting Spirit Back, Push Myself Again; It's Going to Be Tough

[Zelda]

...

Anthony Joshua has been the favorite in 99.9% of the fights he has ever fought, even when really he should not of been favorite I.E Fighting Wladimir Kilstchko in his 19th professional fight 'Joshua for the most part in his career, has compete under a different type of pressure ONE that I am adamant Fury does not like'.

...

There are 4 top HW fighters right now. AJ has only fought one of the other 3 and got defeated. Wilder also fought one of the other 3 and got defeated. Fury and Usyk have also fought one other guy and won. So, these guys haven't been fully tested yet and it is yet to be seen who among them will come out victorious.

Klitschko was not at that level when he fought Joshua...coming off a loss, semi-retirement, and over 40 years of age. I don't know why you would not put a young champion as the favorite over a yesteryear fighter.

Fury has a head like a bag full of cat's but seriously!?
After his Kanye part 2 moment.
At least Fury's boxed 2 world number 1s for all the belts in theyre own back yards as the underdog, so delusional no. Aj has alway's avoided the top 2 & only boxed Usyk because he had to, Eddie wouldn't stop saying Aj should dump the wbo to face yet another old man or can instead of Usyk. Aj is truly delusional. Fury's just mental.

Fury never fought Joshua and Usyk, he only fought Wilder.

Fury is WBC title holder fighting 0-0 guy next, while claiming he is stil N.1, lol.

Fury is a joke.

Just another case of uk fans going too far again... Good guy tho and to get as far as he did with little experience is a testament within itself

Why are you making things up?

You are aware that Wladimir Kiltschko never retired after being beaten by Fury 'Kiltschko initiated the rematch, and endured three back to back training camps before fighting Joshua. The reason why Kiltschko endured three back to back training camps, was because Fury kept on pulling out of their rematch'.

Wladimir Kiltschko was a Champion for close to a decade, and was unfortunately denied the opportunity to win his titles back in a rematch vs Fury 'Kiltschko never retired, was never inactive like Fury's hardcore fans and Joshua critics try and make out'.

Kiltschko by his own estimations was in better condition, more optimally prepared for Joshua than Tyson Fury 'And the time frame between both of those fights was not 2 years, it was 17 months just encase you AGAIN make more historic lies up'.

There is no way that Joshua should of been favorite vs Kiltschko in his 19th professional fight 'But he was on home turf in-front of 90'000 fans at Wembley Stadium, that is mega pressure'.

Wladimir Kiltschko statistically is one of the greatest Heavyweight Champions of all-times, Kiltschko had venom for the Joshua fight 'Kiltschko was 240 pounds vs Joshua, compared to 245 pounds vs Fury. Fury's win his in terms of historical magnitude maybe is the better win, but in my opinion Anthony Joshua beat a better version of Kiltschko than Fury'.

Note: Kiltschko was no yesteryear fighter, Fury did not beat up or knock out Kiltschko 'It was Anthony Joshua who scored the more conclusive win over Kiltschko, in the greatest Heavyweight title fight of the past 25 years'.

We are witnessing the conclusion to era, Fury currently right now just about is holding track position 'But his position is under attack, how he reacts now will determine is greatest as Champion. The competition is still between Fury, Usyk, Joshua and still Wilder 'Which one of these fighters will be the last man standing'.

Lennox Lewis was the last man standing from the 90's era, Muhammad Ali effectively was the last man standing from the 70's, we have witness these events similar before in boxing history etc.

I like Joshua`s attitude and will to fight on and top contenders still. If I had his money and his career, I would retire after two losses to Usyk.

If AJ has any pride (and I think he does), he can't go out like that. He's got something to prove to himself; that he's not just some flash in the pan. This fight with Whyte while winnable, is still a challenge, because Dillian is tough. That they dislike each other makes the fight more interesting and potentially dangerous.

WTF are babbling about here? AJ started boxing very late and has carried the division for some years. He divided his belts against his mandatories and didn't ran away from Usyk like Greedy Belly has been doing. He's tried to give us an undisputed bout twice. He might have his flaws but he's always willing to improve his craft. Unlike Wilder and Fury he's interested in legacy and has taken steps to achieve his goal. So, show the guy some respect.

I'm babbling? Usyk is a blown up cruiser, why should AJ run from him? Like he ran from Andy? He tried twice? Wilder showed him 50 mil and Eddy promise him 100 mil. He went with Eddy and got squat. The garden path.

Agreed. Ive always found the whole "he just needs to be more aggressive" (against Usyk) "hes lost his confidence. old AJ would have won easily" etc comments funny. In reality the guy has done well off of the level of talent he has. Hes a solid workmanlike fighter with a bit of size and power, not a bad fighter by any means but not some incredible talent who was somehow destined to dominate the division for years or something.

Completely agree. Joshua should focus on his strengths and embrace his flaws rather than trying to be something he clearly isn’t.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

he is less in denial than Fury, to be honest.

I know Fury is on your mind 24/7 but this thread doesn’t concern him.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Fury never fought Joshua and Usyk, he only fought Wilder.

Fury is WBC title holder fighting 0-0 guy next, while claiming he is stil N.1, lol.

Fury is a joke.

You’re so obsessed. Let it go Jake.

AJ is one of the weirder dudes in boxing. He simply cannot get out of his own head.
