Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua To Make Next Defense on November 26

[M Bison]

If Bermane can get a direct shot at Joshua for a title, why take a chance with Povtekin likely for less money?

Agreed makes no sense to fight Povetkin for no title and less cash.

joshua is good maybe even great but comparing himtolennox is apples and oranges only thing in common is both are olimpic brits completely different fighters +lewis had muscles big frame but a boxers flowing body his punches flowed naturally joshua has pauses between combos hes a little robotic where lewis combos were flowing combos 4 punches in one movement wher joshuas 4 punchcombo is a slight second pause betweenpunches and 1 secod is enough time where a boxer like wilder or a motivated fury could stop those combos with a stiff jab in between punchs lewis and joshua are apples and orange hesn a better version and more atletic of frank bruno no shame inthat do.

Lewis in his 23rd and 24th fights struggled greatly with old 6'5 Tucker and 6' 4 slow Bruno ,2 guys Joshua would have belted out of there today with little effort . Joshua would have planted Lewis if he fought with the same abilities he did then ......Holyfield was 210 pounds of aformer 190 pound naturally fighter hes not even in the discussion at his best he would still have no answer for an athletic 6'6 250 aggressive power house we both no that ,look what lazy Bowe did even though Holyfield was the better fighter .

I would give Joshua a very good chance vs the inconsistency of Lewis who went from great to sub par looking his entire career as i would give Lewis against a green Joshua ! ! Your mistake is what said doesnt work and thats using lables as referance when Joshua hss the skills and attributes to defeat anyone ,its as clear as day .

You are also severely underatting Joshuas jab ,i'll leave it at that .

You can't leave anything there....he's not beaten anybody on the same wave length as a Lennox Lewis ....don't talk f@cking wet juggers......everything your saying is pure hindsight and tucker was still better then any opponent Joshua has faced off with..Joshua will reign supreme in this era but this era is weak compared with the era of lennox lewises....Michael grant was 250lb powerhouse and look what Lewis did to him....your talking wet behind the ears and untill you start talking absolute sense ithen I will class you as a fanboy...Lewis record will go down as one the greatest heavyweight fighters of all time and Joshua has nowhere near the kind of record that will place him anywhere near that......when Joshua has dominated the divsion for 10 years and has one back his title 3 times and became undisputed champion and also literally defeated everybody he ever faced then we can talk about comparisons and rankings ...I was talking along time about how good Joshua will be and I will judge him when he's a finished article and has proved just how dominant he is ....and if he heard you saying that he was the best heavyweight to lace them up he would laugh in your face and save behave juggers......stop it ffs your sounding ridiculous son with all this unproven talk...we talk much alter when Joshua has done what he set out to do ...that's it

Im not comparing Lewis im comparing Joshua LIKE guys that Lewis struggled with ,yet you seem to ignore the better 6'6 245 /250 Joshua doesnt give Lewis a fight which is not reality .

Joshua doesnt need to dominate anything 10 years we are comparing skills not stability . Grant was knocked out in ONE round by non powerhouse McCline after Lewis fought him,does that make McCline better than Lewis ? Tucker was half of what he was an a recovering drug addict who Joshua would beat no different than he did Breazeale . Sorry but you simply don't know what i do in this situation when using real life stats and referances ,any boxing student would see Joshua ranks right up there as Lewis most dangerous opponents if they fought .

It doesnt matter what Joshua thinks ,do you think he laughs at Barry Hearn a former Lewis guy who STATES Joshua was better than Lewis was and is more gifted ? Your simply going by nostalgic points which don't really count unless we were to compare a guy with under 20 fights and talk longetivity which we are not since we are comparing how they match each other

im not saying Joshua don't give lewis a good fight lol....im saying he's unproven and has not gone to the levels of what a lennox lewis has done and seeing as you clearly stated Joshua is the greatest heavyweight to lace on a pair of gloves ...im simply correcting you with that ridiculous comment and saying to you what a load of rubbish.....greatness is earned and Joshua has nowhere near earned it for you to even be mentioned in the same breath as Lewis...yes he has potential to do it but that's way off from actually achieving it ...you should chose your words more carefully next time son.....Joshua is my favourite fighter now and I've been talking about what he can achieve a lot longer than what you have ...case closed juggers

Show me the word greatest ? Sorry but you are trying to twist words around now you said Joshua isnt near Lewis level now he gives him a good fight? Ive already gave real life evidence thru actuall matches and even opinion of a former Lewis promoter that would rank higher than anyones opinion since hes witnessed first hand what both guys bring .

What you cant comprehend is eras dont win fights or ATG lables thats noob stuff that ppl use over reality ,and the reality is 6'6 240 plus of athletic talent with actual power that Lewis NEVER faced unless you actually think "POWERHOUSE " Grant is on Joshuas caliber level which is absolutely foolish.

Morrison is his best peak level guy Lewis defeated ....next is Golota and then ironically i rank Lewis as high as i do bc of the fight i felt he would have lost against a green Vitali . Theres nothing to suggest to me any of those guys at the point Lewis fought them is better than Joshua ,if we are going to play the who defeated who game which again has nothing to do with a H2H match up here . Joshua is stronger and Lewis smothering tactics if he would find it difficult on the outside would play right into Joshuas game who has the better inside game with,Lennox needed angles and slight distance for upper cuts , Joshua does not he can stand square up and deliver while walking you down on the fly which is why its a better match than most know how to see ,bc they dont know what they are looking at .

The only clear cut punch Lewis throws better is the left hook ,grading on the total package , Joshua is the better /less seasoned fighter . When you walk outside would you ask for more evidence that the sky is blue ? Then why do you need 10 years of dominance from a highly skilled fighter when you can see his abilities right NOW ? Any SANE fan would have M.Tyson in top 5 H2H while he was under Rooney ,last time i checked that was about a THREE year time span . Anyone who at least doesnt have Joshua top 10 H2H has missed the boat or just doesn't want to give him proper status . As a long time studier and been in the ring with pros here and there i think i know what im talking about so the "son wet behind the ear " theatrics isnt going to work here stevie boy ......at the end of the day i do know what im talking about and dont expect most to rank Joshua where i do bc MOST dont ,know how to look at the overall picture ,boxing fans ive found to be the most delusional of the lott tbh . !

Because Povetkin would Knock Juicehua out ?

Everybody on this thread has said to you wooww boy don't get ahead of yourself with that ****** comment of Joshua being the best ever heavyweight in history to lace them up....who has agreed with you on that ? Give me one poster who agrees with you and I'll give you 30 who agrees with me.....no Joshua is not the best heavyweight in history to lace them up...Joshua has had one defence and is just starting on his quest to become the undisputed champion which in my view he will but untill he unifies it and then defends against equally good heavyweights and only then I will rank him....do you realise how foolish you sound with words like that...and another thing I will challenge you at boxing knowledge from any era over any weight....and we will see who knows more about boxing.....don't knock at the Devils door son because he will answer you ...your the sort of poster that will bring bad luck on Joshua and give him the kiss of death with muppet talk like that and then u will be ridiculed for that kind of talk by every poster on here.....save your best ever talk when Anthony Joshua has earned and proved it only then will I respect your opinion......juggers you must be going loopy
