    AJ is not a good boxer/tactician, and never will be.

    Anybody who raves about AJ's "boxing skillz" based off of that fight DKSAB. There was nothing spectacular last night. AJ did box, but it wasn't without a lot of holes. He still got caught, still looked bad up close, still showed robotic head movement, got away with way too much clinching up close. Andy Ruiz went from being an also-ran, to being talked of like an elite killer. He turned up morbidly obese and offered very, very little. He still managed to catch Joshua a couple of times and make him look uncomfortable. Still had him complaining to the ref and pulling funny faces when Ruiz would try to work in the clinches.

    The approach that worked against Andy Ruiz who put in zero effort, would not work against Tyson Fury or Deontay Wilder. Doubt it would work against any top 10 Heavyweight who actually put in the effort in training.

        I actually give him more chance now against Fury and Wilder. He is a quick learner, didn’t think he was capable of doing what he did last night. He was mentally phucked and had a lot of pressure against him last night.

          Yea and that is the problem. Idiots will think that running around pawing the jab and clinching an even fatter Andy Ruiz was some kind of boxing masterclass.

              Try and tear Joshua down to build Fury up. When is Fury going to fight someone who can box even a little? It's been 4 ****ing years now. We still don't know how good Fury is, his fights since his return have told us nothing.

                  C'mon now lad. When Fury legit put on masterclasses you AJ fanboys say he stunk out the place, has no power, boring as hell, etc etc. What AJ tried to do last night was like a really bad impersonation of Tyson Fury, without the finesse and classy boxing, with a limited ring IQ. You can't slate Fury's boxing style if you think what AJ done last night was good! AJ's "boxing masterclass" was like driving a Lada compared to Fury's Rolls-Royce masterclasses.

                    Only idiots would not give him a chance against those two, this is HW boxing, and styles make fight. Fury is not going in there to stop Joshua, he would do what Joshua just did, box and box. Fury isn’t taking any chances of getting hit, if Joshua fight him like that then I give him more chance.

                    Wilder can be outbox, if Joshua sticks to his gameplan and doesn’t take anything big from the right hand then he has a better chance to win.

                    Like I said only idiots would think the way you think
