Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua Warns: I Will Walk Through Tyson Fury!

We still don't know how the kid's chin holds up. Martin landed nothing last night. For people to say only Fury has a chance to beat him in the division is silly.

Deontay Wilder is the one to test his chin. If AJ can eat a clean one from the bomber and shake it off... The division has a huge problem on it's hands.

This, Wlad is too cautious, safety first as a fighter to execute an efficient game plan in order to beat such a taller man.

Wlad can barely fight going forward, fights his hands low, doesn't really have a tight defense, throws combos of 2 punches.

He didn't have the Tools to beat such a freak like Fury yet he never was hurt.

Fury is far from being a perfect fighter.
He's a big problem to solve tough.

Wlad defense is his abilty to keep boxers at a distance, and clinch them on the inside

He couldnt do this with Fury, as Fury was taller, longer reach, and bigger.

I'd actually pick Wlad to beat Jousha, with relative ease. He has the laser like jab, a heavy right hand and quick feet. If a small guy like Whyte can rock Jousha, Wlad would put him to sleep.

If Wlad somehow beats Fury, which i doubt, i'd like to see Jousha vs Wlad.

Fury is hard to hit, and he's gotten better and better, it's easy to say Jousha will do this and do that, but when you are in the ring with Fury, he's huge, but very fast on his feet, and he has power to hurt Jousha.

It was only one fight ago Jousha looked in serious trouble, this Martin win doesnt fool me.

Before you know it, Jousha will walk onto something

I always gauge a fighter by how he reacts after eating that first big one. Martin ate one in the 1st, and his whole body language changed. It was over in the 2nd.

Fury being described as the next Ray Robinson is really starting to annoy me.

Fury masterpiece against Wlad had more to do with Wlad having a style mainly efficient against men being 6'0 to 6'5 and the Ukranian showing his age. He was horrible in his previous fight against Jennings, couldn't pull the trigger.


Don't get me wrong, Fury is a solid HW champion with his 6'9 frame and tricky style.
But I also want to see more from this guy, against a guy who can fight forward and pull the trigger. Josh might be the man.

Well when did i say he was the next SRR?

I said for a guy who is 6'9, he can actually fight well inside and is very tricky and awkward which is why he is incredibly hard to beat, even if he doesn't win in spectacular fashion.

LMAO I think you misspelled afraid.. Klitschko didn't throw jack**** period.. not because Fury was fast lmao!!!

Absolutely.

Wladimir was always a product of size. He relies on being in control of distance and his defence is stepping straight back out of range. That doesn't work against a bigger man who is also a product of size and has no intention of engaging.

Joshua has sparred Fury, he knows his style and power and he is extremely confident of winning that fight. I think he'll go right at him and put it on him.

Yeah, yeah I forgot you are right.. brits are never wrong about their fighters!

[maddad2001]

That steve cunningham fight feels like so long ago. Oh wait it was long ago, 3 years to this month... 3 years ago a certain Antony Joshua made his in ring debut and look how far he has come on. So stop using old facts it just makes you look foolish.

[hugh grant]

Josh hasn't liked fury's bullying recently so is giving some back. Everyone making great predictions for what josh could do, yet he only fovght martin and whyte.
Josh needs s proper fight next. Even wilder has stepped up.

I wonder when Joshua will hit his peak?

Man, watching that travesty of a "title-fight" last night made me wanna search out something with a little more meat on it. So, I watched 'Tyson v Berbick'. Honestly, it made me a little sad to compare the quality of champions.

Anyway, I don't think Joshua is capable of ever being as quality a champion as, say, Tyson. Mainly for lack of competition but also for lack of that special quality that marks out the greats. I don't think Joshua can improve much more... I mean, when will he hit his prime? 30?

Joshua reminds me somewhat of Federer when Federer was winning all those tennis championships simply by virtue of being the least ****, rather than being the best in a truly competitive field. Joshua can only fight who's put in front of him, sure. But it still seems doubtful to me--at least at this early stage--that he'll ever break into anyone's GOAT top-10 or anything like this. There's no reason to assume he'll keep on progressing and developing in such a tidy fashion. The amount of hype he is getting is completely unwarranted.
