    UK Amateur Heavyweight Anthony Joshua

    6'6" in shape and built like a brick ****house with quick powerful hands and agressive to boot

    Yesterday he beat reigning world and olympic champion Roberto Cammarelle by decision and had him on ***** street in the second and third round

    Tyson Fury has gone on record saying Joshua "beat the **** out of me" in sparring

    Only 21 years old, look for big things from this kid

    Ah nice he bet Cammarelle then? thats a real big win. Do you have any videos of the guy? i havent had chance to watch the world champs. There seems to be a few really good young fighters who will turn pro in the next few years, i think these will be the ones to take on the heavyweight titles.

      He's 18-1 as an amateur I believe. Good luck to the big man.

      Hope he works on his defence because it takes some doing to get hit with two superman punches in the space of 20secs

        No videos but they are probably out there on the youtubes

        Iv'e seen this kid live a couple of times, he's the real deal, throws some sick combos and can really move for a big guy, he's exactly the kind of guy the division needs, big, strong, mobile, athletic and skilled, plus he likes to fight a little bit too.

        He booked his spot in the olympics yesterday, another years development and my money will be on him to take gold, then comes the pro journey

        I cant say enough good things about Joshua, get on the bandwagon now

          Just watched the fight on here http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/oly...pionships.html

          He looks like he has some potential, still raw but he might turn out to be a good pro he just needs the right trainer to teach him the proper fundementals.

            Magomed Omarov also beat Camarelle this year in the European championship's final, but it seems nobody noticed.

                I watched the Camerelle-Joshua fight. I was suprised Joshua won but ive been a Joshua fan for a little while now. I do have hopes for him.

                  Is Omarov a novice though?

                    Yeah he first came onto my radar when he was caught with illegal substances will intent to sell, surprised he was so lightly let off by the ABA they must have known they had a real talent then
