    Tua chin held up to a whole lot more power than what AJ has to offer.

    Relax kid.

    For future reference: There are 2.2 pounds in a kilogram.

    112.9 kilograms x 2.2 = 248.4 pounds.

    Thank you, I know but as I’ve stated earlier in the thread the video clearly states 17st 2lbs which equates to 240lbs. I know that’s at odds with what appears on the scales but I chose to believe the voice rather than the numbers on the scale.

    Sorry but that is backwards. The scales don't lie. Even 249lbs fully clothed is a lot lighter than his 254lbs for Takam. Hopefully comes in around 245lbs but we'll see, either way he has too much for Parker.

    He will need the speed and stamina.. Maybe he can punch a little bit faster than last time. Be more lose, he looked kinda stiffy to me last time

    Why would anyone get on scales and then not believe what the reading is? If the scales aren't accurate why would he use them? Totally illogical to think otherwise.

    Correct. The scales don't lie, and even if they did, why use them? If there was something wrong with the scales you would get rid of them and replace them with an accurate set of scales.

    112.9 kg is, I think, his second-highest weight.

    Why people are agog about it is beyond me.

    Joshua is special, I back that and as usual I'll be proven right.

    I'll be proven right BC there hasn't been a giant counter puncher with his abilities...


    Hard news for haters of boxing BC unlike other combat sports they bring down their own sport...


    If not for Joshua...guess what???

    They WOULD focus on Wilder and how poor the sport is....

    So is the way of follow stupid off the cliff BC Stupid says its safe....

    This is your boxing community...:yikes:

    You might be right. He might turn out to be special. As of right now he still has areas to improve and experience to gain. He's doing a great job so far though.
