Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury: Joshua is Fighting a Bum, Eddie Hearn at it Again

[kafkod]

This is a great pick by Eddie hearn in his quest to sell AJ as the Ultimate Fighter to the very lucrative, Sky Sports watching UK casual fan market.

Breazeale is big, young, black, undefeated, and American. That's exactly what the average casual Brit boxing fan thinks a heavyweight dangerman should look like and sound like!

When young Anthony walks out and smashes him like he did Martin, the roars and chants of AJ .. AJ .. will reverberate from Lands End to John O'Groats!

He's not wrong.

Hahahahahahahaha Fury trolling AJ hard. You've gotta admit, he knows how to build interest / fights.

Whichever of AJ / Wilder / Haye etc. he fights next, assuming he gets through the Klitschko rematch, is gonna be a grudge match because he baits everybody!

I would like to see what he comes up with to insult Povetkin if he defeats Wilder. Any suggestions? My guess is something to do with that crap 'bowl' haircut :-)

Lol. Fury has referred to Povetkin as a Russian midget on steroids a couple of times. I wouldn't be surprised if he latched on to the pudding bowl haircut too.

Who is Joshua supposed to be fighting at this point?

Stiverne would've been a good name, and maybe even a test. Even Molina, who proved his durability against Wilder, would've been a better choice than this Brazilnut guy.

Stiverne looked like crap in his last fight and Molina isn't anything great either. They're all around the same level imo, people just want to moan.

This is Joshua's first title defense, so why not face someone who is of similar experience? It'll be good experience against someone very tall, and Breazeale's undefeated.

Stiverne can take anything you throw at him, so that's a test for AJ. Molina can knock the **** out of you with a sneaky powerful right, and can take a beating so that's also a test for AJ.

Breazeale's style isn't going to test him at all imo. Too slow, too poor defense. Joshua gets him outta there by the 4th. And the only reason I give him that many, is because of Breazeale's heart.

This is what everyone was afraid, Joshua would win the belt and then face lower tier opposition because he's not ready for top five comp yet. Although Breazeale is a step up from Martin.

I wasn't afraid of this. It seems perfectly reasonable- Joshua is incredibly green.

Stiverne was dropped by rossy and arreola koed molina in one round
