    Savarese is my all time fav fighter. Big and strong and always came to fight would he have too much for the robotic but skilled Joshua

    Post your thoughts guys

    I have a feeling this poll will not go well for ya. Savarese was pretty good but I don't think he beats Joshua.

    Hi thanks for getting back. Would be interested in hearing your breakdown on the fight if you would be willing

    Was hoping for some responses not sure why these other guys are being weird. Internet forums are not what they used to be I remember the one on AOL boards back in about 2000 and it was awesome

    Joshua is one of my fav to watch present day because hes got power in both hands and has some nice skills but he is stiff and i do think he has stamina problems. I wonder if my guy Savarese would be able to work his body too Big Lou loved his body shots

    Please don't speak Lou Savarese's name in the same breathe as Anthony Joshua ever again.

    But you are ok with Joshua having title defences against bums like molina breazeale takam, winning belts off martin etc.

    it must have been ok to speak these guys name in same breath as you put it

    if you have nothing to contribute go to another thread

    Joshua is slightly better than a 44 year old evander holyfield, so i believe AJ pulls out a win by UD.
    Sometimes, Savarase showed heart, especially in the holyfield fight...if we bring that version of savarese to the ring, i think he will be a very spicy opponent. Still favor AJ though.
    The thing that i don't understand is the fact lou is your fav fighter. How so?

    A indication of Savarese's own limitations was shown in three specific defeats: a points loss to the geriatric George Foreman, a fifth-round knockout beneath the moderate fists of David Izon and a comprehensive beating from Michael Grant.

    After ten rounds against Grant, who went on to be knocked out inside four minutes by Lewis, Lou was done.

    So he can’t outpoint an old Foreman, can’t handle a boxer like Lewis or Tyson, can’t out last Grant and didn’t have the chin to stand up to... David Izon?

    Joshua can therefore out box him, out punch him or win at range on a comfortable points UD like he did against Ruiz jr in their rematch.

    That's a good post but you have to remember Savarese was one mean guy and he would not go down without fighting he had it all and loved to hit to the body and soften opponents up

    Something tells me joshua dont like being hit up and down the body and Savarese would punish the body but as you say maybe he would get knocked out before he could do it

    it would be a cool fight much better than breazeale etc Savarase beats that bum up good

    great post stiches yarn

    Savarese is my favourite due to his charisma he was 6 foot 5 inches and although he was a baby next to me at 6 foot 8 and 400 pounds he was athletic and had a big heart and would not go down without laying it all on that bloody canvas I have watched him twice in person i told him im his biggest fan and he put his arm around me the guys my hero

    Savarese would hit up and down the body make yoghurt out of that body of opponents. I hate how judges go blind to the body if body punching counted on the cards Savarese would had had a better career he still gave it his all and his fans love him for it

    the guys my hero lou if you read this your always my hero man

    well look at the results joshua has more votes but savarese has a few too so this is a discussion that should be had Savarese was big strong and hit up and down the body and had stamina Joshua has faced worse

    I understand this is kind of a joke thread. Joshua destroys Savarese.

    The odd thing about it, however, is that he might beat Wilder. Think about it. Savarese is probably better than anybody Wilder has fought outside of Fury.
