What would yall say are Aj’s best abilities versus his weaknesses ?

chin like a rock, humble, mobile and loose eh oh wait reverse that -
so true. To be fair to AJ, if he didn’t have the massive PR machine behind him and the media training, and just came up under the radar - then everyone would rate him more highly. I think people just get irritated with his image and especially when he was touted to be the best in the world early on, people are going try and pick holes.

Strength = Unapparelled work ethic and attention to detail 'His humility and willingness to learn'. Tyson Fury for example? Wanted a pat on the back for cutting out diet cokes during his last training camp 'This shows to me deeply concerning flaws in his mentality when it comes to training and dedication'. These flaws are there because deep down 'That is who he is, that is Tyson Fury's nature'. All this NEW desire to dedicate and train is a big effort for him, where as it is instinctual for Anthony Joshua.
People may overlook this variable in their match up, but I think it could be a game changing variable. Anthony Joshua is not as gifted as Tyson Fury inside of a boxing ring 'I have once described Tyson Fury as the boxing version of George Best or Paul Gascoigne' Tyson Fury is touched with that same kind of greatness.
Anthony Joshua is a mountain of raw materials, as athlete that is how I would describe him 'In my opinion he has not really be touched by greatness' not on the level of Tyson Fury. But Anthony Joshua has a innate virtue, humility and a intense desire to learn. When you combine that with his raw materials, he can achieve great things.
Tyson Fury for me looks at the lifestyle of a fighter as a choir, it is a burden to him in some ways. Fury trains to keep fit, he is not pushing the boundaries of his being in my opinion 'Because to achieve such things you have to go into levels of Asceticism that he has never shown' I am not going to say he is not capable but, by the looks of it? 'I don't think he wants to go there'.
Don't mistake my estimation of Tyson Fury as being somebody who is undedicated 'There are just levels of dedication, and Joshua by instinct is levels above Tyson Fury'.
Anthony Joshua is like batman, he may not have all these weird mystical super-powers like Tyson Fury. But he has been plotting and observing Tyson Fury for a long time 'This fight between them started a long time ago in Anthony Joshua's mind'.Last edited by PRINCEKOOL; 07-03-2020, 01:51 PM.Comment

Humble, a free thinker, not racist, endurance like a marathon runner, granite chin and fluid, rhythmic technique.
A naturally gifted boxer blessed with deep wisdom, sharp intellect and the ability to raise boxing to another level.Comment

To be fair he has got up from a huge right hand from klitschko to win as well as making a Whyte hit become a small obstacle. Many others have fallen to those.
Humble is definitely right - compare him to wilder or fury for example - it’s the making of his alternative boxing image which has created such a buzz in the uk.
Mobile he isn’t known for but he proved in ruiz2 he does have the capability.
One of his real strengths in my view, as well as his obvious power - is his versatility and ability to change tactics.
We obviously want to see him against fury, Ortiz, wilder, usyk , etc but he has fought Povetkin, Takam, Parker, Whyte, klitschko etc already.
For sure he has shown that he can be slow and is catchable but for me I would still put him favourite against every other current fighter, including Fury.Comment
