Comments Thread For: Joshua: Fury Went Pro in 2008, Never Thought I Would Catch Up To Him

[Toffee]

Only difference is Tyson Fury has not been hammered , out thought and out fought by a massive under dog.

Two can play at that game.

The only difference is that Fury's never defended a belt.

So not the 'only difference' then?

Feel free to add some more 'only differences'.

Fury didn't buy titles or could tempt people to fight him though.... he had to work for years climbing the ranks, including a year out courtesy of David Haye. He has not had the smoothest ride.

Apples and oranges regarding their careers and paths to the top.

Wasn't aware Joshua held the WBC title or is still undefeated. Oh wait he hasn't and isn't so still behind. I liked AJ until he quit because a fat guy whooped his a$$.

WBC Champion, ended two long reigning Championship runs and still undefeated.

How did you come to that conclusion reading that ? Nowhere in the article does it suggest that ,in fact it’s the opposite of AJ saying he’s caught up to a Fury fight and was ready fights ago .

AJ is on record saying he's "not really part of Furys generation". Saying Fury was far further along in hes careers and how he's had to learn on the job quickly. Whyte and some of the Sky team have been saying something similar. I guess Foreman knocking out Moorer shouldve been expected going by this logic.

Fury has defended his lineal titles multiple times, and that's more important than any belt AJ has ever won.

This just sounds like AJ is getting his excuses ready for after Fury demolishes him

Vinyl bum fury..::::why wait for year???? Nothing please haters. AJ has d best resume of all current heavyweight. Period

[champion4ever]

Damn, this motherfucker try to act like Fury and himself are more than 20 years apart. Shit! They are only a little less than 14 months apart and one calendar year apart. Fury (08/12/1988) and Joshua (10/15/1989).

Those comparing the ages beteen the two are missing the point.

Inarguably, Joshua got into boxing late. Didn't box at all until he was 18. And when he was starting as an amateur, Fury was a pro. Hence, he viewed it as being a gap of eperience between the two. But now they are in a position to fight for all the marbles. That is all.
