Joshua stops Fury easy, both beat a weak 40 year old fake soviet so it doesn't really matter, Joshua is more fit and has better combo's, he will get Fury on the ropes and unleash a combo and end the fight, Allah is with Joshua and that is why he will win

A little education for everyone on actual skills in the defense area .

First advanced defense is the art of not getting hit while being in range to hit back . Fury does not do this bc he avoids engaging out of range from long distance ,his footwork is the exact opposite bc it moves him away from the opponent .

Joshua is almost always in range to counter punch after slipping or blocking an opponents strike . His footwork puts him position to land direct strikes from mid to close range .

The Fury fanatics must be thinking but why does Fury get hit less ?

Well he doesn't as a matter of fact statistics show he gets hit more per fight which he shouldn't bc his style is EASIER to avoid punches . Further proof anyone claiming Joshua defense game is weak continue to watch with beer goggles on ,in fact hes the number 2 least hit HW .

Offense is self explainatory ,one is limited to power the other is a faster power puncher capable of throwing viscious combos and throws ANY punch better .

Both have decent ring IQ but only one showed he can adjust to more diverse styles ( Joshua ) .

No one who really studies boxing thinks Fury is a more skilled fighter , unless you are related to him or what is known as a denium !

Nice troll thread.

Anyway, to answer the question, it's called the eye test.

Anyone who understands boxing knows that Tyson Fury has more boxing skills than Anthony Joshua. Far more.

How is it a 'troll thread'?

Also, how does the supposed 'eye test' prove anything?

Can you actually back your statement up about Tyson Fury being the more skilled boxer because I have. My position is backed up by actual facts as to why and how Anthony Joshua is the more skilled boxer without any shadow of a doubt.

A fully fit Fury is more skilled than Joshua and i don't believe it is close.

Fury can box effectively on the back foot, something I am yet to see Joshua do and can back his opponents up. This is due to Fury's superior footwork. Joshua is much stiffer and looked out of his depth when he was being backed up by Klitschko.

Fury is also the more active boxer in the clinch and is great at roughing his opponents up. Fury also posses and amazing engine and could comfortably fight 15 rounds (when fit). More often than not, Joshua uses the clinch to catch his breath.

From top to bottom, Fury is the more fluid boxer and moves amazing well for a big man. However there is no question that Joshua posses the great equaliser, punch power.

Because fury outlanded wlad by 34 punches according to compubox. Aj did by 13

Fury has far superior movement and footwork, can fight on the front foot or the back, can fight inside and out, can switch stances with ease. Joshua is just your basic plodder who has a hard punch.

1) It took Tyson Fury 25 fights to face Wladimir Klitschko and beat him whilst it took only 19 fights for Joshua to face Wladimir Klitschko and beat him?

2) Tyson Fury never came close to dropping, never mind stopping Wladimir Klitschko in their bout (inferior offensive skills) whilst Anthony Joshua dropped Wladimir Klitschko multiple times and stopped him (superior offensive skills)?

3) Tyson Fury landed fewer effective punches on Wladimir Klitschko (punches that had the most effect on Wlad) than Anthony Joshua did (displaying inferior offensive skills again) where both Fury and Wladimir Klitschko arguably landed the same number of effective punches on each other whilst Joshua landed more effective punches on Wladimir Klitschko (displaying superior offensive skills)?

4) Tyson Fury was dropped in his 21st fight against a natural feather fisted cruiserweight in Steve Cunningham whilst Anthony Joshua was only dropped in his 19th bout by the most powerful puncher in heavyweight boxing history in Wladimir Klitschko?

5) Tyson Fury went 12 rounds against Kevin Johnson to win via decision whilst Anthony Joshua stopped Kevin Johnson in 2 rounds whilst barely getting hit (showing superior offensive + defensive skills)?

6) Anthony Joshua has a superior heavyweight record overall in just 20 bouts compared to Fury after he had 25 bouts?

7) Anthony Joshua is an Olympic gold medalist whilst Tyson Fury isn't?

AJ FANBOY ALERT!!!!
AJ went life and death with Wlad 18 months after Fury embarrassed him in his own backyard. Styles make fights moron. Earnie Shavers blitzed Kenny Norton, Holmes and Ali only beat him on points. Does that make Shavers the more skilled fighter?
You've just been schooled the same way Wlad was by Fury.🥊
