    No, I said Joshua would beat all of Haye's wins. Which he would.

    Which Chisora? Name me one Chisora, from any fight, that could trouble Joshua.

    No that's not at all what I said. I said Klitschko is the only guy I would pick for dead certain over Joshua at heavyweight.

    Of course there are threats out there, Fury, Haye, Povetkin, Wilder as I mentioned in my post. But I wouldn't be sure that they'd beat Joshua, even at this point.

      Haye in shape and hungry could take Joshua out IMO.

      Joshua has that robotic style and Haye can break rhythm with his explosive attacks - he hits like a mule and is accurate.

      The few times Joshua has been caught with hard hooks you can see he panics.

      Chisora is just not motivated enough these days, but Haye - that would be interesting.

          Since he turned pro he's knocked guys out with straight rights, uppercuts, left hooks. He's mixing up single shots and combinations. Showed he could even fight a little bit off the back foot vs Skelton.

          He threw a great counterpunch vs Cornish. Late in his amateur career, he dodged and ducked punches. Even slipping shots as well, as has he done as a pro. Go and watch the Olympic final for instance.

          He's even proven to be a decent body puncher too.

          How is that limited exactly? For a guy with 15 fights.
          Well yeah that does kind of give me the impression he's limited.

          I don't know he's limited because thus far he's fought window cleaners and milkmen for the most part but why I said he seems limited is because again he hasn't shown me anything thus far that suggests otherwise. He seems stiff, doesn't seem very fluid at all. Moves in straight lines, doesn't seem to move his head that well etc.

          Hard to judge because like I said he's working a punching bag basically where nearly anyone could look like they're not limited but thus far he seems it. Time will tell when I believe he will be I inevitably knocked out.

            You have a strange habbit of making up things when you aren't getting your way

            I can honestly say that I haven't seen another heavyweight with that kind of game come on the scene since an early Wladimir Klitschko and that includes Povetkin, Wilder and those kind of guys and it definitely includes Price.

              Nearly all heavyweights get knocked out at one stage or another. Hardly anything to judge by. It happened to the best of them.

              I don't agree with him moving in straight lines and I don't know why people say he's stiff. It's like you want him to be David Price.

                I'm not saying that's not what you said, it still just as ridiculous. You would pick Joshua over every Heavyweight outside of Wladimir.

                Ok. I hope you're right cos you're going to look a proper tit if Joshua doesn't deliver.

                  He did do the chicken dance in that video above and that was with head gear.

                  The signs aren't great to be honest.

                  If big Dillian Whyte lands on his chin, Femi is going to sleep.

                    Femi Joshua is the white David Price.

                      I don't think Joshua's as **** as I knew David Price would be.

                      But weren't you also singing Price's praises before he got proven to be a plumber after all?

                      I guess some people don't learn.
