Is Anthony Joshua the best combination puncher since Mike Tyson ?

Anthony Joshua is the most overrated heavyweight in recent history.

The best to do it since Mike Tyson is Evander. Holyfields ability to put together shots eclipses Joshua's offense ten fold.

It would be a delight to watch Holyfield destroy Joshua's wafer chin and he'd make the bodybuilder quit in a round

 

I don't think he's that over rated tbh. He's got clear ability.

He's not an ATG, but definitely HOF.

 

Certainly up there as one of the best combination puncher at HW since Tyson.

 

Predictable combinations are not good combinations

Fury throwing single shots from awkward angles or not telegraphed (bodywork on Whyte) is much more impressive

Landing a combination is also what counts. Landing a 3 punch combination against a high level unhurt opponent is impressive but not many do it...good luck finding examples. Ruiz laying up on AJ is one.

Boxing is about being dynamic and unpredictable and AJ is not that. He is quick though handspeed. Footspeed not much.

 

Is that why Fury is dead set keen on avoiding Usyk but has no issue with calling out AJ?
All this talk about how he will come out of retirement if AJ wins, but if Usyk wins... it needs to be 500 million+ (which he knows won't happen).

Must be all that slickness and awkward angles that have the big gypsy man running for the hills...

 

I like his combination punching, good speed and power

 

For a SHW he is One of the best all time yes.

 

Stop hijacking the thread to make it about Fury. I know you love him but that's not on.

 

Omigod lmaooooooooooooooo

/Thread

 

You are the one that is keep doing this, and i'm sorry, but you should have been on a vacation long time ago, because of all of this trolling and spamming every single thread with Fury nonsenses.

Like for example:

As far as the thread goes, AJ is the best combination puncher by far since Tyson. No one even come close. His punches just flow so good.

This fight early on AJ career is a great example. And while Kevin Johnson is not a good opponent by any means and he was one old fart in here, AJ was the first to stop him.

BS

 

Great timetamp there. He puts punches together well, the problem with AJ is he doesn't have the stamina to throw combinations as much as he could. But when he does, they are beautiful to watch.

 

Enlighten us, who is a better combination puncher puncher than him ? I'm listening.

 

Lewis and Holyfield also had great combinations but I consider them contemporaries of Tyson.
