    How is Anthony Joshua incredibility fast?

    I've been watching his bagwork and padwork and amazed how someone with huge muscles have that much speed?

    His speed is underestimated. He has speed.

    Genetics: muscle composition. fast twitch fibers. Also neural recruitment plays a role, how rapidly and effectively the motor cortex can stimulate bunches of muscle fibers contemporary, and is from genetic predisposition too. Muscles fibers are activated in bunches from the motor cortex and each bunch have a different activation treshold. If you are trained and predisposed to activate more bunches simultaneously, you have explosiveness and speed.

      AJ is big, strong & packs a punch but he is NOT fast.

          For a 250 pounds man Joshua is very fast.He has a lot of power too that's right.

            Genetics ,and LEAN muscle is more explosive in movements . No one honestly watches his fights if they say he isnt fast . Were those counter rights vs Martin (whos fast himself )SLOW ?how dumb are we as FANS ? WATCH the fights sober lol

            Go watch the Sprott fight where he throws a 10/15 punch combo in under 3 seconds ! Then get back too me !

                Its not really hard to look fast at heavyweight, a lot of them are over 30 years old and 'Big-Baby' Miller weighed 300 pounds for his last fight. Now Deontay 'Bronze-Bomber' Wilder is the 'Flash' of the HW's, people dont give him enough credit for that speed.

                    I thought Wlad was faster in spots, prime Wlad was worlds faster than any version of Joshua.


                    Id say AJ is average for his size.
