Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: I Still Favor Tyson Fury To Beat Anthony Joshua Easily

[Noelanthony]

I’m confident he does, within 6.

Joshua has quit once in the ring and will do it again against Fury.

Lol He never quit , he was concussed so badly his brain was scrambled.so is reactionary time to simple instructions were not as it Should be. Let a fat bird sit on your face for an hour or allow a fat snicker eating fast twitch fibre Mexican punch you in your temple and let’s see if you have your wits about you.

Fury looked like dog S#hit against Wallin . That fighter loses to Wilder in trilogy seeing that we are talking about previous fights

UD Fury 8 - 4

with one of hearn's 'banker' judges having it a draw

Where do you guys get this confidence from that Fury will beat AJ? This is boxing and only one tap can make a difference. AJ is a dangerous fight for Fury considering the oppositions he has had compared to Fury.

Joshua fans should be thankful that he's in a genuine 50/50 against a legit champion.......and has the oppurtinity to beat a prime #1.

He's not been in a fight with a real champ before...... will be a good test for the unified champ

Boxing knowledge..... 3 decades of following the sport, 10 years of following Fury.

That means nothing...... it just gives confidence in my prediction.

Khan really has a way with words rubs it in.
You can just say 100% you feel fury wins and we'd get message. But you say easily? And Josh is robotic like Bruno lol.

Easily is what it should be.

It's funny but also understandable, the vast majority of you still can't comprehend how special, and great of a fighter Fury is. One day, one day gents.

“If that same Fury goes into a fight with Anthony Joshua, it's always going to be Fury that wins that.”

I never understood this way of thinking for fight predictions.

I think Fury beats Joshua too, but it has to do with a lot more than just how Fury looked in one night versus one guy.

You can’t just say if “Fighter A goes into a fight with Fighter B looking like he did vs Fighter C, he will beat Fighter B easily.”

Or the good ol:

“If he fought the version of this fighter who beat that fighter...he wouldn’t have stood a chance!”

Boxing does not work that way at all and it’s disappointing to see that from a professional boxer who does it for a living and has extensive experience in the sport.

Would Terence Crawford have beaten the “version“ of Amir Khan that showed to fight Maidana? Or maybe the version that fought Prescott would have shown up? Or how about the Khan fought DSG? Or the Khan that fought Malignaggi maybe?

A fighter will look different based on who he fights. Can’t just mix and match. “If Hearns fought the version of Duran that beat SRL, he would have lost”...No, no he wouldn’t have. Styles make fights.

100% agree here. Good post.

Eh, I've got Fury too in a potential AJ - Fury matchup. Although I think he'd be best off mixing his styles against AJ, TBH. Try his defensive maneuvers for a couple of rounds first, to let AJ gas a bit and slow down, especially should he try to hunt him down (and if he tries to box, out-jab him, haha) and then do that pressuring thing he's been developing with Steward, wobble him a couple of times with one-twos and then finish up with uppercuts and overhands.

Fury could win but it won’t be easy, same with AJ.
