Anthony Joshua has fought the most proven power punchers statistically in his career, compared to all of his nearest competition 'Even still compared to Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder the two fighters who have been his closest competition as a whole during is career. Anthony Joshua has been decked the least number of times'.
It is actually the opposite of what you are saying 'Anthony Joshua's durability is better than many people perceive. Joshua's durability may not been at the level of Evander Holyfield, George Foreman or Muhammad Ali. But it is a underrated attribute which he has in his game'.
Out of Daniel Dubois and Anthony Joshua 'Only one of these fighters, has been knocked out by a jab? Daniel Dubois'.
Wladimir Kiltschko is a more proven power puncher than Deontay Wilder at World and Elite level 'In my opinion the power punch which Wladimir Kiltschko landed on Anthony Joshua in their fight, was a more powerful and technical efficient punch than any punch that Deontay Wilder has ever landed on Tyson Fury'.
Anthony Joshua not only had to get up off the deck vs Wladimir Kiltschko, it was early in the fight 'So Joshua had to survive the on coming bombardment that Kiltschko was going to unleash. That type of competitive environment and situation, was pretty much testing Anthony Joshua's durability to it's maximum and beyond. And from my obversion Joshua's proved in that fight, that his durability is solid enough compared to many other Heavyweights in his boxing era'.
If Tyson Fury had fought all of Anthony Joshua's opponent's, and the exact versions of them 'There is a potential that Tyson Fury may have been decked upwards of 15 to 20 times by now seriously'.
I totally disagree with the notion that Anthony Joshua has shown poor durability vs Wladimir Kiltschko, Dillian Whyte and Andy Ruiz 'In all honesty? You must not really analyse what you are saying before you make your posts. Because once again the reasoning behind all the statements you are making is flawed'.
Note: We have seen Dillian Whyte whack many fighters completely out, with his best punch which is his left hook 'Whyte has ether decked them, or knocked them out. Fighters such as Derek Chisora suffered his first knocked out in just over 6 years, before Dillian Whyte whacked him with his left hook. Joseph Parker was decked, for the first time in his career by Whyte's left hook'.
Derek Chisora and Joseph Parker are fighters who within the boxing community, universally it is accept that they have solid proven durability 'Those two fighters and more have been way more hurt by Dillian Whyte's power than Anthony Joshua'.
Which leaves is now with Anthony Joshua's performance vs Andy Ruiz Junior 'In retrospect people have just gone along with the narrative regarding that fight. Andy Ruiz Junior vs Anthony Joshua is considered as Joshua's worst ever performance, a fight which people should not talk about if they want to rate Anthony Joshua'.
But really although it was Joshua's most serve ever loss, there are positives in that fight 'That many people overlook, or refuse to acknowledge'.
The reality of that fight, Anthony Joshua was not dominated for the entire duration of the fight 'Joshua was winning the opening rounds easy, hurt and decked Ruiz Junior. Then after Ruiz Junior responded and decked Joshua, what then happened after that point in that fight? Was that Anthony Joshua actually fought his way back into the fight, before eventually being decked again and stopped in his feet in his corner with a smile on his face'.
If that is the most brutal and worst loss, any boxer has ever suffered in the sport of boxing 'Then honestly, I don't think people know boxing history or understand competitive violence'.
This is what people don't want to talk about or acknowledge when it comes to that fight, it's not really the most brutal and serve lost to the level that many people and narratives try their best to promote'.
That is why when the rematch was made, Anthony Joshua was actually the favourite and still expected to win.
It is now 2024, and Anthony Joshua is still here 'And still dangerous, and one of premier Heavyweight fighters, still in the competition to see who will be the last man standing of this Heavyweight era'.
To conclude: I will conclude this post, with a very serious warning directed at Anthony Joshua's critic's. The days are number, YOUR days are number 'All the narratives and negative stereotype's that have been associated with Anthony Joshua, they have all been losing their intensity for sometime now on a fight by fight basis. The critics who are still hanging onto these narratives, their conviction has dramatically faded'.
This is organic process, which I warned people was potentially going to happen almost 2 years ago.
After Anthony Joshua was beaten by Oleksandr Uysk for the second time, and Tyson Fury sabotaged a fight vs Anthony Joshua in December 2022 'I stated, that the worst thing Anthony Joshua's closest competition can do, is give him time and space at this point in is career'.
Because Anthony Joshua's traits as a fighter, support him to excel in a more longitudinal aspect 'Instead of acutely in the moment'. This is because Joshua has near psychopathic work ethic, combined with very analytic and obsessive nature. What people need to understand, is that these type people and competitor's don't just disappear the worst thing their competitors can do? Is give them time and space to fight their way back'.
We are now at the point in Anthony Joshua's career, he has gone through a process 'Joshua has been searching for a way back, I have watched this man leave no stone unturned. While his critics have mocked his behaviours, due to not really understanding what his happening from a competitive perspective'.
In the past, I have compared Anthony Joshua to Batman 'If Batman is given time and space to prepare for any of his adversaires. Then Batman is going to find a way to win'.
Anthony Joshua within this era of Heavyweights, I have always stated 'That if he is given time and space, he is going to find a way to beat his closet competition'.
'Anthony Joshua is the only double jeopardy threat in the Heavyweight Division, he is the one of the most component and proven skill for skill pure boxers also? Anthony Joshua is one of the most proven power punchers in the division. No other Heavyweight in the division has that combination of attributes and level of threat at such a high level, Anthony Joshua is the only one'.
'Therefore if Joshua combines and utilizes all of his power, it is over for all of these top level Heavyweights' And that statement goes beyond fighters such Daniel Dubois, it also extends out towards both Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Uysk' etc.
