Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua Latest Target Of Tyson Fury Twitter Rants

[Roy Jones Jnr]

Fury is just a big oaf who wears undersized opponents out my lying on them the whole fight (Cunningham). I can't wait until he finally lands a big fight and get's exposed for the hype-job he truly is.

What hype? From where is the hype coming from?

90% of the laughing stocks that are so called Boxing fans still think he's crap because they've seen a youtube vid of him punching himself.

Get exposed? What you mean by losing a fight?

You're a ****ing joke, son. This is Boxing, he may well lose a fight but that doesn't mean he'll be exposed. That'll mean he'll have lost a fight, uh like 99.9% of boxers have all done in their careers.

You're a pathetic excuse of a boxing fan, as a certain Roger once said, ''you don't know **** about Boxing, son''.

This will be very interesting in a year or so...Chisora, Fury and Joshua. Three heavyweights that are/will be in each others paths.

If things pan out well then the UK's heavyweight scene will receive a fair bit of attention. No doubt Haye will desperately try and squeeze himself in that mix too. Maybe the UK heavyweight scene will get pretty interesting soon.

I think Joshua's a great guy but I worry about his defence. He reminds me a little of David Price (huge puncher, impressive physique, but potentially leaky defence). I always knew Price would come unstuck and I bet he'd lose to Tony Thompson having seen Matt Skelton get through at times (before being KO'd).

Joshua needs to be progressed carefully. Massive potential but one step at at time.

[Wicky]

We don't know much about Joshua yet – other than he's obviously got potential – but we know plenty about Fury. He's a reasonable but limited fighter that lacks finesse. He thinks being undefeated proves something, but he hasn't got the confidence to step up against a top tier fighter. He fights his battles on Twitter.... such a pu55y!

[Ravens Fan]

They mentioned his name first as was described in the article.

Not only that, Joshua is a prodigy, no shame in calling him out. At least somebody is calling someone out. I like it.

Fury should be calling out a decent top ten fighter or two. But no, instead he is fighting a retread in Chisora while calling out a novice. With that said, if his fans are okay with his choices who am I to question the big doofy a$$wipe?

[gmc_rfc_06]

Joshua is still learning the game.

With that said, I'd still pick him to spark Fury right now.

Fury is the future of the heavyweight division, and arguably the future of boxing itself.

lololololol

LOOOL Oh Fury

Lol I'm a HUGE *wink wink yeah that also * Fury fan for real. I honestly believe he can beat not only Joshua but anyone in the division. I ride with Fury till the end. WAR FURYYYYY!!!!!

I used to like Fury but he is way too annoying these days, although I like his, fight anybody attitude. Tonnes of guys in boxing could learn from that.

Chisora is all but done, this fight is his last shot at glory and I don't think he'll win it. AJ may well get him in a years time and by then he'll be all but shot.

The second point you make, I don't see the heavyweight scene here making that big a splash just cos we've been ****ing on about it for so long. As long as 4 years ago, people were talking about heavyweight boxing exploding in the UK but it hasn't. Yes Haye is a big name but since his loss to Wlad all he's done is KO Chisora and skip out on a Fury fight 2 times, for various reasons.

Chisora is a good, solid pro who can **** at the world level but he just doesn't have enough to win consistently.

Fury on the other hand, just can't seem to capture the public's imagination like a lot of promoters and channels were hoping he would and how he hopes he can. He is loud anf brash but hasn't fought in ages, obviously no fault of his own.

Whereas Price is already a has-been.

The real strength of heavyweight division lies in eastern europe and the former soviet states.

I was there when these two sparred back in 2010.

Fury later said that Joshua beat him up but this wasn't the case, tbh.

They boxed 6 rounds and there wasn't much in it...more holding and grappling with Fury woofing like a small dog on occasions trying to unsettle and unnerve the less experienced Joshua.

I think its a 50/50 match up if they fought now. In a year or so, Joshua will KO him.

Yea I heard an interview where he said Joshua hit like a mule and he would have been asleep for a month if he had the chin of David Price lol. So you think he was overstating?

He was definitely exaggerating, Joshua used to look very uncomfortable and limited in the ring. His learning curve has been incredible, I thought he was very lucky to get gold at the olympics but now he is starting to look quite spectacular.
