Comments Thread For: Tony Bellew Backs Anthony Joshua To Beat Tyson Fury

[Zelda]

What was Tony Bellew's prediction for the Joshua-Ruiz 1 fight?

[BangEM]

Josh will spark Tyson and John Fury the same night.

I still think Josh is more skilled, accurate, stronger and has power in both hands. Fury only has an advantage when it comes to ring IQ due to experience and movement.

Fury is very clumsy and he doesn’t even know how to throw 1-2s properly. And he’s gonna eat Josh’s hooks all night long. There will also be real VADA testing, so there would be no doping, which is one of Fury’s major strengths.

Can’t wait.

Tony is wrong again.If we had not seen the blue print of how to destroy Joshua he may have had a slightly better case.If a little fat bloke can do that to Joshua then Fury who is much bigger and much better can do it even easier.The way little fat Ruiz put Joshua on the back foot and KO 'd him was embarrassing and the way Joshua ran and was frightened to trade with an even fatter Ruiz in the rematch was unforgivable .For Tony to base his opinion on these latest facts show just how far out he is.

Fury is clearly good enough to beat Joshua but using Ruiz as a reason why makes no sense because him and Fury fight nothing alike.

It's so simple minded to just say 'a fat bloke did it and Fury is better than him so Fury wins'.

Given how hard Fury found Wallin - who wasn't even a top-20 fighter. Joshua will be a handful for him.

Fury was offered an AJ fight for 3 belts in April 2019 and he turned it down at 60/40. So he obviously wasn't confident of winning.

A lot depends on how AJ recovers from his loss. If he goes in against Fury not beliveing in himself he will lose. Fury is on the up now.

Yes exactly. Styles make fights. The only person who stopped Wilder was a guy who couldn't punch. So does that mean that any random hard puncher could stop him? no it doesn't...

You are missing the obvious - that Ruiz took Joshua's best shots time and time again. Part of his strategy was to hit with Joshua because he knew he could take AJ's punches but AJ couldn;t take his.

There's probably no other top-10 boxers with a chin like Ruiz. Parker is maybe the closest and he was cautious when he felt the power

So Bellew is going with "The chin man" Anthony Joshua.

Fury is now the UK #1 HW ahead of Femi

Look at the YouTube comments, this is a sky sports upload and you'd usually see all the Matchroom FC drones sucking Hearn & AJ off, but now everyone is supporting and picking Fury to win.

So, Fury is clearly 100x more well known and popular in America, and is now more popular than Femi in the UK.

Femi might be more popular in Saudi Arabia & Nigeria i suppose, i'll give him that.

There's no heavyweight with better head movement than Fury.

He won't be taking many flush shots from Joshua.
