    Anthony Joshua "I would mess Deontay Wilder up!"

    Anyone else hear this on the Nov 12th Ringside Toe2Toe Podcast?

    Co host Spencer Fearon was saying that although A.J'S persona in the media is 'Stay hungry, stay humble', they were at a r'n'b concert and Wilder's name came up in convo. Joshua got all animated saying "I would mess him up!"

    Probably just bants off camera. He is confident so I'm sure he thinks he is capable of beating most HW's. Having said that, AJ is clearly focused and knows he has to stay away from believing his own hype too much.

      Joshua is clearly very well trained by Eddie Hearn and Matchroom to say all the right things to the media but occasionally, he lets his wig slip.

      I remember he got properly pissed off when Kugan Cassius reminded him that Dillian Whyte beat him in the amateurs. He said something like "I'll knock your ***in head off".

        Joshua is supposed to be a nasty piece of work irl. Like Diggler says, he's been media trained, but as the hype goes on, he's started to talk more.

        Give it a year and he'll be trash talking like all the rest.

                Any good heavyweight his own size with power and a good right hand knocks him out.

                Joshua still only has like 11 fights, give him time to season. This is the problem when guys win a gold medal and then get put on a pedestal, Johnson is a good fight for him to get some rounds in but hopefully Hearn doesn't get carrried away and rush him too quickly.

                  This is the truth. He's shown it on a few occasions. At the end of the day, he's a little bit of a thug from Watford right? There's a reason he was banned from the town. His friends look like some kind of people as well.

                  He's probably a nice guy, but I like him being a little mean. And his idol is Mike Tyson so hopefully some of that will come out.

                    i'm trying to find this. Just found the November 12th toe2toe and nothing about Joshua came up? Is it the youtube version or the skysports.com version?
