Anderson was exposed like most of today's heavyweights. He's flawed and bound lose his fair share of bouts at the higher level.

He definitely has work to do but overall that Martin fight was probably a valuable experience for him. At 23 hes probably still 4-5 years off of entering his prime so theres plenty of time to work on things. Martin is not a bad level of opposition at all for a 23 year old.Comment

Martin made him go into his bag, and now I know he has a bag too! I didn't know he could switch to southpaw, and wasn't sure if he could take a punch either! He showed me a lot, but he showed me he's not ready for a Top 5 HW fighter too! I hope he wins Saturday, and fights the winner of the co-main event too!Comment

On his last fight vs Charles Martin, Jared realized that he was not ready for top opponents.
In my opoinion he has no chance against big punchers like Zhang, Joyce, Hrgovic, Sanchez, Bakole.....and especially against Fury, Usyk, Joshua and WilderComment

I don't mind when a prospect is brought along slowly. I absolutely hate hyperbole that starts before the first bell rings.
Anderson and Nico Ali-Walsh have been force fed to us for years and they still haven't shown me a darn thing other than the fact they can't be tested. Talk about special treatment.Comment

I would agree. Top guys destroy him at this point.Comment

I thought that initially but seeing how he dealt with getting hurt in the Martin fight showed me something. Hell, most fighters should likely have an exit strategy.
I still hate how he pulls back from punches without taking his feet with him. It will likely be his downfall.Comment
