Comments Thread For: Froch: The Only Way Joshua Beats Fury is By Stoppage, He Can't Outbox Him

[Silver Spear]

Gauge the reaction to each of them when they are hit hard. AJ has some of the worst defense of all the top HW right now. AJ may have the power advantage but we've all see what Fury can do when going up against someone with power. I expect Fury to use his long Jab and defense to tire out AJ. Not sure if he goes for the kill in the first fight so they can build up the second and really drop the hammer. The best of Fury vs the best of AJ I would say that Fury has shown better skills and overall better potential. AJ dropping the weight may have dropped some of the power needed to stop Fury. AJ will not be able to use his size as an advantage anymore and if he struggled against a 40 year old....

If he's so much better why has he been dropped more times and against weaker opposition than Joshua has? Fury moves his head and feints and people think that makes him a great fighter. Joshua is going beat the crap out of the clown, watch.

Fury is very lucky he doesn't have a loss on his record already.

He lost to McDermott and McDermott was robbed.
Most refs would have waved off the fight when he got dropped by Wilder.
Most refs would have stopped the fight when he was cut against Wallin.

He's been dropped by pillow punches like Pjakic.

Other than Wlad who is safety first and was dealing with his wife having a mental illness, who is the most skilled fighter he's fought? His resume is garbage. Little Cunningham was outboxing and dropped the clown.

I mean you could say the same about AJ only with AJ Wlad was coming off retirement and even more personal problems. AJ was dropped, looked very gassed and frankly had Wlad been a few years younger he would have KO AJ.

yes froch faced a similar problem V ward, so he's an expert on how to go about it successfully, or maybe not

[MDPopescu]

Fury can outjab Josh in a boring hugfest...

Not really Joshua's opponents are more skilled than Fury's. Wilder and Chisora are two of the lesser skilled HW's. Joshua has a far deeper resume against top 10 fighters. He's more proven.

One got dropped got up an won against a puncher,never lost confidence and destroyed him in a rematch .One got dropped by a non puncher,quit,got stopped,ran for hes life in a rematch ,completely changing style.As for McDermott, going back all them years shows how weak your argument is.Heres one,AJ was knocked out twice through a head guard.

I wasn’t impressed with what I saw in AJ v Pulev.

I was very impressed, he seems to have learnt a lot in the past year. He knows when to apply pressure and when to back down.
His close work and precision were outstanding (I don't remember anybody landing as many uppercuts in recent times).
He put on a display of all he has learned and controlled every round before inflicting a savage knockout.

I really can't see how it wasn't impressive, he's boxing better than ever.

I thought AJ looked fun shy at times as thought he wasn’t allowing the punches to flow freely.

Uppercuts? Yes he landed them but it took him twice as long to get a 39yo Pulev out of there than it did a 39yo Wlad to get a 34yo Pulev.

I honestly believe that AJ is caught between styles and Fury buries him.
