Comments Thread For: Joshua: Tyson Fury Has Surprised Me, But Every Fighter Needs Time To Develop

[Boxviewer]

Anthony Joshua has never beat a prime #1. or #2. HW champion. Wladimir Klitschko was out of the sport for almost two years, coming off a loss and retired again after his defeat vs. Joshua.

Deontay Wilder and the Gypsy-Bum were the clear best two in the HW division when they fought. Anthony Joshua had been defeated by a massive underdog, Josh had to demand that Ruiz defend his titles in a 22 foot-ring for the rematch, this was a considerable advantage for Joshua -- who ran like chicken all night.

A.J is a paper-champ.

Fury was out of the picture when AJ became a champ and meantime Wilder has been a champ but never had the ball to unify anything but fighting bums.

In contrast, AJ became champ and started unifying the division and is currently targeting Fury for the undisputed champion. Your Wilder has been washed and hung out to dry. These are facts.

Wilder is lucky that the virus came along.
He wasn't remotely ready for a rematch.
Have to hope for his sake that he's taken stock of why he lost and can figure out a plan.
I doubt it though. He seems pretty ******.

Yeah he's got way too 'preachy.' I think the Klitschko win went to his head a little. All this talk of 'legacy' and referring to himself in the third person while playing 'the guru' card is enough to boil anyone's pi**

Shame really because when he burst on the scene after the Olympics I thought he was a breath of fresh air. Then Hearn made the Whyte card a PPV event and it all went downhill from there

He is ambitious and works very hard to accomplish his dream of becoming an undisputed champion. There is nothing preachy or fake about that. And he has been fighting the mandatory accordingly.

Fake is the one who just managed to become a champion of one of the abc and got protected since then with zero ambition to unify the division. Fortunately, he eventually got exposed for what he's truly is, paper-champion.

The #1. fought the #2., TWO times ; make it THREE in the trilogy. When is Joshua going to step up?

Damn bro, i might have you give some you green. Straight up FACTS!!

I'm kinda thinking the same way. Tyson has developed into a better fighter than I thought he had the potential to be.

Agreed. Just shows that talent alone is not enough, focus and work ethics are just as essential.

He’s obviously trying to play a role that’s been mapped out for him by his handlers to endear him to his target fan base in order to set him apart from fighters who people have paid to see lose. He does come off as trying to be some sort of sage or medicine man and it’s truly boring

Again, I love how Fury gets one good win, and now all of a sudden he is unbeatable hahaha. When he wasn't picked to beat Wilder in the rematch because of how bad he looked against Wallin. You guys need to slow down on Fury. He hasn't even defended a belt yet or fought most of the guys in the top 30. Plus, remember, he is a steroid cheat, there is always a chance that will happen again.

Dahejki Dipshit, you are only being nice to me because you believe that Wilder is finished. KISS MY ASS! BOMBSQUAD!!!

AJ never seems to have anything insightful to say

Sounding like an idiot as usual.

Isn't Fury the same guy who uppercut himself and got battered in the amateurs by Pricey? And isn't he the same guy who got battered by McDermott?

Most Brits who have followed Fury from the beginning never thought he would end up being this good. And there's a reason why no one gave him a chance against Wlad. Loads of Brits actually thought Haye had a chance against Wlad despite how average Haye was. But no one gave Fury a chance and there's a reason for that.

That's basically what Josh is saying. Reading/comprehension isn't everyone's forte but don't blame the messenger if you can't comprehend something as simple as that.
