Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua Drops Kubrat Pulev Four Times, Knocks Him Out in Ninth

[_Rexy_]

I don’t know I saw no threat in Pulev yet every time he threw a punch at AJ I would panic. AJ threw some lovely shots today but he is giving a lot of real estate to his opponents. He allows himself to be pushed back who was never the case

He was also keeping his head straight up in the later rounds, like he forgot that his face needed protection?

Mind you, uppercut is easier to land on the big guys, so can't evade it for 12 rounds.

Is it easy to land on a southpaw/switch-hitter? and someone 25 lbl's heavier and 3" taller?

Joshua is going into a fight with genuine disadvantages for the first time....... and going from what he has been saying, he knows it.

Good for him going in like a challenger and keeping that mentality but we all know Joshua is creasing himself having to beat a young, fit champion..

Aj looked good but still vulnerable.

[Noelanthony]

No but he might add an extra one on himself to the tally.

Lololololol

If I’m fury and Usyk. I’m licking my lips at getting Joshua next. That was one Pi$$ poor Performance. Same fundamental mistakes as the Ruiz rematch. Slipped two punches and thought he was Ali. Took 10 rounds to end a 40 year old stiff idiot, who funnily enough, could only last 5 with Wlad 6 years ago 😂😂 bruh. Joshua didn’t wanna say I want fury next. It was all “ask my promoter” or “road to my next fight, not road to undisputed” lmfao. Ego on this kid is something else. Cannot wait for Gipsy king to take his soul and rid boxing of Anthony the fraud Joshua👍🏾💯

Fury just demanded the Joshua fight on IG, called AJ a bum and said he would KO him in 3 rounds.

AJ wouldn't mention Furys name after the fight.

Sounds like AJ might be quacking tbh.

All that ***** is old antics of the 90's. If you want to fight, come to the round table and negotiate terms and conditions. No body gives a fcccck about tweeter and Instagram call outs.
Its all for the gram.

decent performance , not spectacular. Joshua’s fighting more of a counter puncher style now ,still a good combination puncher clean upper cuts and combinations dropped old pulev who doesn’t have a good defense serval times, Joshua did what he was supposed to do ,Joshua was never a one clean punch knock out power puncher like wilder or klitschko.
But his defense still has holes ,ate some right hands from pulev while leaning back not moving back&blocking like klitschko fighting a little bit like klitschko but he’s no klitschko, or caught while just stiffing there ,but that’s expected from Joshua.

I don't know about that. He knocked Whyte and Povetkin silly with one punch. He can definitely get a fighter out or at least hurt them badly with one punch. I'm not saying he punches as hard as Wilder or Klitschko though.

Pulev is so bad

Like wallin lol

Fury smokes ajuice at this stage,hes lost his killer instinct and when punches come his way he panics,hes finished when he gets back in with someone with a pulse

Aj is an old man slayer ,fury isnt an old man

Yo I said the exact same thing about panic. He literally just runs away. Backs up in straight lines. Main thing I noticed is, he’s either defending or attacking. He can’t sit in the pocket, slip and ride shots AND Return with his own. It’s either one or the other with him. I cannot believe the difference in skill between a man like Fury (Born to Fight) to Joshua. It’s as if the Gulf in class Increases with each fight. Eddie Hearn isn’t silly. He knows that Joshua loses to fury. That’s why he will give it a week, then say fury never took it quick enough, we have to fight Usyk now.

But on this showing, as long as Usyk doesn’t lapse in focus, he EASILY Out points AJ. No way can AJ box in same manner.

[Boxviewer]

Fury beats AJ badly. Now I am even more sure about that.

AJ won`t be able to deal with Fury`s speed and combinations.

Fury's speed and combinations?😂😂😂😂
