Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua: It's A Lot Of Pressure; I Can't Afford to Lose

[OldTerry]

I don't know how this fight is playing out to the UK boxing fans. Outside of the UK the interest is casual to non-existing. I wonder how this makes Joshua feel?

A second-round knockout win for Povetkin at 101:1 on a betting site.

I'm almost tempted.

whats the minimum bet?

Oliver McCall pulled it off, so did Rahman....Hopefully we will see it again. Just to humble Hearns.

Meh. Got no interest in this one at the moment. We'll see how I feel at the weekend.

Enough lack of interest to post - moron

Outside of the UK, there isn't a lot of interest in Wilder vs Fury.

But AJ vs Povetkin is going down in front of 90k fans at Wembley, will sell around 1million PPVs on Sky and be watched by more viewers in Russia and throughout Europe than all of Wilder's fights combined.

I wonder how that makes Deontay feel?

Good chance of an upset here, Povetkin is being underestimated by most. I got Povetkin via stoppage in 4-5 rounds.

Unloved and wondering why Finkel kept him away from all the big fights all those years ?

Joshua feels good, another big fight and big gate. Povetkin is the number 3 heavy weight, if you cannot fight Wilder or Fury then he is fighting the best out there. How did Wilder feel having so many fights and making so little.

I’m just concerned about the United Kingdom. There were a lot of suicides when GGG lost.

Joshua wins easy if he fights behind the jab.

But I definitely think he is going to have more aggressive moments in the fight to see if he can open Povetkin up and hurt him. He knows the fans expect excitement.

Povetkin has a chance to use that to his advantage and land something heavy.
