Tyson Fury is an overrated awkward boxer who's opportunistic

    I don't think he has the tools to even trouble Josh that much. Even against Wilder on the 22nd, he was open all night to overhand right and left hooks. A good counter puncher, which Josh is, would've punished him and reopened those cuts and probably stop him.

      Toot ten contender in 90s early 00s. Sloppy fighter if DW hurt him every hard punching heavyweight from those eras would KO him easy . Inside , outside don’t matter cause these guys were all skilled not like the **** today . Even the 3 best DW , Tyson and AJ are all crap compared to the past heavyweights.

        The gap is wider, not closer.
        I know it sounds counterintuitive but for me, I think Joshua has improved. He's more than the hyped up bodybuilder I originally pegged him for.
        I also think Ruiz is better than his physique presents and Wilder is the epitome of a manufactured and protected champion. Mickey Duff couldn't have done a better job.

          Joshua would be a tougher test but Fury looks the most skilled.A view backed up by others in the game.Another thing I think Fury has over Joshua is heart.If he is in the zone I cant see Joshua beating him.

            Fury literally does everything better than Joshua. I'm not even convinced that Joshua is a harder puncher tbh.

              I just hope he keeps proving everyone wrong. There is always going to be doubters but results change most.

                I don't think he's improved. Yeah he ran around a bit in the rematch, but it's easy to do that against an untrained heavy bag.

                We don't even know if AJ has anything left. What's he going to do when 6ft9 270 pound Fury is in his face trash talking him?

                He'll probably have another panic attack and beg Eddie to end the press conference.

                  The "others in the game" are mostly sycophants who just ride whatever wave, do the bid of whoever is paying them or just big up boxers they have a relationship with. Most of them don't study boxers and are always disingenuous.

                  Didn't these "others in the game" blow smoke all up in Wilder's arse and picked him to KO Fury? Well, I was one of the few who leaned towards Fury stopping Wilder, if he could step into his punches because I know Wilder is a protected bum with no chin and overrated power. I was also one of the few who said Ruiz was a very dangerous fight for AJ stylewise when these "others in the game" said AJ will KO the guy easily.

                  A guy with no heart wouldn't get up against Wlad and win by KO. And a guy with no heart wouldn't take an immediate rematch and win in style.

                  AJ is a terrible style for Fury and he'll stop Fury easily. The fight might end up being one of the easiest fights of AJ's career if Fury ever comes forward like he did in Fury/Wilder 2.

                    We could apply the same logic to Fury though. I mean we all agree that technically Wilder is a novice level fighter with little idea how to properly defend himself.
                    We also saw that last time Fury conquered the world he fell apart mentally.

                    If I had to bet money, I'd go with Fury but it's no foregone conclusion imho.

                      Wilder is a novice level fighter? No he's not lol. He was a 5yr unbeaten champion.
