Comments Thread For: Canelo Backs Joshua To Overcome Fury in The Late Rounds

[Gamboal00]

First thing that Hearn will do is ensure Fury is not PED'd up to his eyeballs and is not allowed to tamper with his gloves. This will make it easier for Joshua to knock the cheating scumbag out.

Surprising how you guys think Joshua is dumb and cannot read Fury very well. You think Fury is not a man and that his intelligence is from another planet, right? Guys, this is boxing, HW boxing!!!! Anything can happen any damn time within 12. I have followed this sport long enough to know that. 2Pac knows better in his song, "anything can happen". What Joshua knocks Fury out in 3.

Sometimes a overlooked ability, great fighters have is? How to read a fight, how to anticipate a match up. That is why sometimes, a fighter's perception and opinion matters 'Canelo Alvarez, may be perceiving something that many people cannot detect at this time'.

Tyson Fury right now, has all the momentum and I also make him favorite 'I was not all that impressed with Joshua's last performance, there are area's where he needs to improve'.

Fury is all wrong for Joshua

Fury is all right for AJ

fury stinks the place out in most of his fights, did his fight with Wallen impress you?

If Fury ever defended his belts against other top 10 guys he would equally not impress you either.

His performance against Wallin was terrible (so terrible that he won a unanimous decision on points, but I digress...)

But his performance afterwards was what has everyone rating him so I'm not entirely sure of the point you're making.

I can see this happening but i can also see a wide variety if things happening and different outcomes.

I do think AJs power will be more impactful than what wilders is. AJ will land more power shots especially on the inside. Wilder just throws one punch and catches unskilled boxers. He also caught an over confident fury in the first fight.

Furys best bet imo is to throw everything at AJ. Box him, stay away with the jab, switch to southpaw, crowd and pound on him and lay his body on him like in the wilder fight... Wear him down

I don't think AJ will win the first fight. He still has that timidness about him when he gets hit.

Weren’t most expecting Wilder to win the rematch though?

I could be way wrong (and I'm sure I will have a bunch of people tell me such) but I always thought it was kind of a rocks, paper, scissors style matchup between Wilder, Fury and AJ. Wilder's concussive power would make him dangerous against AJ's chin, Fury's mind games and unconventional boxing give Deontay problems all day and Fury struggling against the size, power and conventional boxing skills of AJ.

Close to how I see it. Except I always had AJ/Wilder as a 50/50 short fight.

Fury beats Wilder however he wants, but there aren't many routes to victory over AJ for him.

As a boxer (Klitschko or Wilder 1 type performance) he needs to not get hit for 36 minutes. A limited boxer in Wilder got to him twice, AJ likely gets to him more.

As a brawler (Wilder 2 type performance) I think he loses quickly. It's easy to get past Wilder, not so AJ.

I think he needs to be a boxer/puncher in this fight. Be patient, fight from range and then commit to damaging when his chance comes. We haven't seen that from him at any kind of level, and it's doubtful to me that he can do it. Even if he can, he's effectively fighting AJ's style of fight... what chance he does it better?

best would be usyk refuses the stepaside and faces Joyce and AJ does Fury, so we have two nice fights comin. Wheres the issue? Yeah I know the money has to be earned
