Joshua has post KO syndrome

[MDPopescu]

He never showed any killer instinct even the kind of instinct where he went at wlad after getting dropped and finishing it.

It’s completely gone reminds me of Roy post tarver 2. This man can never beat fury or wilder with this new found caution it’s almost a joke he’s a champion right now.

... I keep repeating this here: AJ had a poor upper body and head movement... and he couldn't change that in his last fight...

translation: the guy definitely can run, but he can't hide from huge straight rights (Wilder's type...)

[asgarth]

I would wait until after his next fight to make a proper assessment.
There was a lot of pressure on this fight. He had to come back from a KO, he had to change up his style somewhat and couldnt test it against a lesser opponent first and his future career would have suffered massively if he had been stopped two times in a row by ruiz.

It was the right decision to play it safe imo.

Pac after his ko to jmm was cautious. It took a while to get mojo back.
Even though Pac was winning against rios, Bradley etc etc he wasn't himself. Even against floyd.
It's taken to nearly up to thurman fight to see something resembling Pac of old

...
aj will have to prove his greatness and adaptability against the other big two.

Fury will slap him into submission... and Wilder will KO him cold...

This fight was massively important for his legacy. Win and he's in the company of Floyd Patterson, Muhammed Ali and Lennox Lewis as the only heavyweights who have won immediate rematches in history. Lose and his legacy is tarnished forever and will never be ranked among the greats. Taking very little risk in a fight of this magnitude was the smart thing to do.

I wouldnt be so sure...he will give both big problems, if you cant see that then you dont know boxing

... I din't say that he will NOT give both big problems...

... I only said what it is quoted above...

... (and, of course, I don't know boxing whatsoever...)

Well it comes across like you're not giving him any chance from what is written, but maybe you have a language barrier (I don't know)

He will make a better job of walking Fury down then Wilder did. Wilder doesnt put his punches together or close distance well, his style is to wait on openings and shoot his power, hes unpredictable and very fast, so it's more about concentration but I think Joshua will cause Fury more problems stylistically and he still carries fight ending power.

And he has got dynamite in his hands also, not like Wilder, but he would be the biggest puncher that Wilder has faced...everyone puts hands on Wilder so both fights are very intriguing stylistically and need to be fought

I see a lot of posters very sure that he doesnt beat both...I'm not very sure, how can you be? He has the tools to do both jobs, his chin may let him down, it may not.

I thought that Joshua added additional dimensions, elements and wrinkles to his game in the Andy Ruiz, Jr rematch. There's no way a true boxing fan can walk away from that type of performance and not be impressed.

He showed us a side of his fight game that we have never witnessed before.

He's become Wlad. But, I don't think he'll ever have that same level of talent prime Wlad had.
