Anthony Joshua vs. Manuel Charr

For all of his flaws, Charr has one of the best body attacks in the division today... If he could make it out of the first few rounds he could definitely trouble Joshua... Not sure I see that happening though, unless Charr is extremely cautious early and somehow improves his defense. He gets hit way too easily, and often for me to think he can take this one into deep waters.

 

You really think hes making huge money fighting on undercards of matchroom events?

 

Joshua aint stepping down to this level of competition anytime soon.

 

he runs in moronically with his head down.

this is not a body attack.

 

Joshua but it's going to be a tough fight

 

Well he aint fighting for free and what he gets now is better and more consistent than the drug money he was recieving from other peoples misery.

 

Yes he does, that's called bad defense. What does that have to do with his body punching ability? :think

 

Yes Charr has a high guard, decent chin and power but he's awfully slow with little footwork and by covering up it will invite AJ to open up. I can see this being stopped in the second maybe the first round.

 

This fight has the potential to be very, very interesting. Depending on how well Charr protects himself as he pressures AJ (and he WILL try to pressure him), we might see what kind of stamina AJ has.

I don't think Charr wins this fight because he doesn't have the footwork or defense -- AJ should be able to turn and batter him en route to a stoppage. I do wonder what happens if Charr makes it out of the first six rounds.

 

That's a very good point. Prior to the Povetkin loss, I don't think I'd be favoring AJ to actually stop him either. :think

But the way things are currently, I get the impression that AJ has more power than Povetkin for some reason.

It's hard to see how Charr is going to put in enough work vs AJ without taking some good shots in there. If AJ is as good as people think he is, he beats Manuel Charr up.

Now I want to see this fight. I wonder if it happens any time soon.

 

If Charr isnt shot and comes to fight aj is in trouble.

Jk. Aj will catch him with something big and going down going down.

 

bad defense?

mhua! he has no defence. he absorbs shots with his head as he comes in,

that's not boxing.
