Official Anthony Joshua vs Wladimir Klitschko thread

[*TonyMontana*]

That's what I'm talkin about, man. If Wlad put even half an effort into the Fury fight, he'd likely have taken it. I think the coddling they've done with AJ has left him green. He has built confidence, but no experience dealing with adversity. If Wlad has his head together, he's got it, because he's the more talented fighter.

Personally I think Tyson's weird style is just wrong for wlad
He struggled every round
Never got his jab off cos fury was constantly on the move
Wlad won't have that problem with Joshua
Dudes got no footwork

I've got nothing against Joshua but wouldn't it be brilliant to watch him knocked clean out in front of a packed Wembley stadium full of people who don't even watch boxing, just to see the look on everyones face.

Hearns face alone would be priceless
Haye would storm out
Then you would see Tyson in the crowd with his big dirty grin
Yeah I'm down to see this

I remember Kovalev vs Stevenson being confirmed for June 2016 in the ring after the Bute/DeGale fight...

So many things can go wrong ...

Exactly.

I've been saying people are reading too much into the Fury loss. Obviously Wlad isn't what he was, he's in his 40's now. However i believe Tyson Fury would have given even a prime Wlad a hard night, maybe he wouldn't have always beaten him but his style is just wrong for Wlad as you say.

Joshua will be stood right infront of Wlad. Wlad is still a great athlete for his age and with all that experience, i think a flat footed very orthodox fighter like Joshua might be bread and butter for Wlad, no matter how powerful Joshua is.

Even at 41, i don't think a strong powerful fighter is anything Wlad needs to worry about, it's more awkwardness that will bother him and Joshua definitely doesn't bring that to the table.

Yup
Klitschko's notorious for injuries

What a load of nonsense. Vlad has been dominating for years because the heavyweight scene has been atrocious. His skills aren't anything special.
