Anthony Joshua has become very, very underrated recently.

[Marchegiano]

I agree, Joshua's a better boxer than his fans deserve. He needs to find a way to attract worth a **** diehards.

All there are here is dumb****s with the emotional fortitude of a mouse. Say something ****** then freak out whenever called for it. ****ing lame. Leaves Josh with no half decent representation.

[PRINCEKOOL]

So these negotiations were apparently, really straight forward 'Just a few minor details to sort out etc'.

But still no agreement has been finalized.

Or maybe Eddie Hearn is waiting to announce the fight in the new year?

24 hours to 1 week, was all they needed to make this fight '2 weeks ago'.

Note: Afew days back, I was discussing the negotiations on another thread 'I cannot locate that thread, so I will just post this here'.

Thank god some body like you is here with your purple writing to label all Joshua fans on here in the way that you do. Clearly ppl on here don't say ridiculous salty crap about Josbua on here to wind them up and feel the need to defend him and his accomplishments?

What was impressive about Joshua beating Ruiz? He should have did that in the 1st fight. Being the taller guy, why would he even try to trade on the inside with Ruiz instead of boxing him from the outside?

[The plunger man]

Look to fury and how he performed against wallin....yeah he beat wilder but wilder really was an accident waiting to happen.
Joshua can fight on the inside , has a left and right and great combination puncher and his footwork is getting better and better and one of the best finishers now in boxing
I wonder what the excuses will be when Joshua knocks fury out and end this silly hype talk.
I think losing to Ruiz was a godsend because he was starting to think he could walk through anybody and paid the price...I don’t think we will see that kind of recklessness in his future fights.

Joshua is best at mid range, I don't think he has developed 'A strong inside game as of yet'.

Tyson Fury does have a inside game, but it is extremely messy 'It is the reason why he has spent 80% of his career being ****** by most of the fighters he faced'.

Anyone who is honest, people who have watched Fury's entire career will know? That he was bashed about routinely in his early career.

Note: Tyson Fury's inside game is still a mess 'Fury fought Wilder on the inside, because Wilder has zero inside game'. There are no real heavyweights about these days, that can fight on the inside 'I disagree with the notion, that Tyson Fury is a complete fighter'.

Fair enough Tyson Fury gives it a go on the inside 'But no way, is he on the level of Rid**** Bowe, Lennox Lewis I.E Big guys who could fight on the inside etc.

He hasn’t looked great in the 2 fights since? He’s taken on two top ten...

The first he completely outboxed and won 12 rounds.

The second fight he knocked a man down four times, won every round again and got a knockout of the year contender - against a man who had only lost one previous fight.

But he’s not looked great since right? Please explain what you expected to happen instead then... because I’ll point you to wilder and fury fights and many of them - that they haven’t achieved what your asking for!

He doesnt look good mentally hes not willing to take one to give one or counter in punching range,whenever a punch sciffs past his face he fills his shorts with smelly sludge

You can tell he panics and doesnt keep his composure when someones throwing or landing on him,something which doesnt look good if hes to go in against someone whos going to give him a few slaps

Joshuas lost his trading ability which is vital for elite boxers

Wlad lost his trading ability and look what happened the first time he came up against someone similar in size who can box at a further range
He bottled it against fury and his only chance was too take one to give one and he just didnt have that anymore

Same with aj things really dont look good for his chances against fury

[soul_survivor]

This website is ****e so duh!

But real boxing fans know AJ fought all the champions around him and Wilder now even admits to turning down the fight otherwise AJ would already be undisputed...but yeah he apparently hasnt fought anyone AND he wanted to duck Wilder lol

Heck, I can't remember if it was the Good Morning interview or somewhere else but Fury claimed he has been calling AJ out since 2015...the same 2015 in which Fury got depressed, didn't box again for 3 years and AJ started the year on his 11th fight lol

But I guarantee if this sites "journalists" got a hold of the interview or the usual racists posters on here they'd say "see, AJ been ducking Fury for 5 years" lol

He’s not willing to “take one to give one” - are you sure your a boxing fan? Clearly you don’t know boxing very well if that is your expectation. The aim of boxing is to hit and not to be hit; have you seen any of the top heavyweights ever aim to do that? Smaller class fighters eg Carl froch - can do that - but not at heavyweight class. Fury and wilder both can’t and don’t do that technique either.

“Counter in punching range” - ok you really are just a hater. Go watch the Ruiz rematch and even more so the Pulev match and you will see regular counter punches. His first knockdown all started from a right hand counter punch

I think Lennox was more mid range...bowe and Holyfield were both good at close quarters.....what I mean by Joshua is he can hurt you when he is close and has developed that uppercut nicely and can land that at ease.
Joshua is better mid range as most big men are.
If fury chooses to get in close with Joshua he gets hurt ..he might have the size but for 270lb man his punching power is weak.
Joshua can hurt you close up or from a distance and we saw that with klitchcko and pulev.
Of course he is not on the level of who we mentioned but he will be dangerous for fury for sure.
Mercer was another great inside fighter but I think it’s the size really that helps the inside game.
