Anthony Joshua vs Corrie Sanders of the Wlad fight

Rahman couldn't beat John Ruiz, old Holyfield or fat Toney and got knocked out by Maskaev both times. He has a puncher's chance, like he had with Lewis, but that only worked 50% of the time then.

 

The AJ disrespect is crazy hes not gonna just stand their with his chin out. Hes way more consistent than Sanders who outside of the Wlad win was a never was. Also I dont like the trend of pitting the more consistent fighters worse version up against the inconsistent fighters best version, that doesn't truly reflect reality to me.

 

I will say this for Sanders he was really good at beating up old Crusierweights.

 

Also Sanders gastank is notoriously **** the longer the fight goes on Sanders chances of winning falls like a stone.

 

Sanders detonates on that Glass Jaw.

 

Sanders got 1 shotted by the unremarkable Nate Tubbs so people talking about Joshua's chin atleast Joshua has got up from multiple knockdowns and kept trying.

Sanders was done after 1 knockdown vs Nate Tubbs.

Don't get me wrong I like Sanders he was talented and I think he's more of a natural fighter than Joshua. But his resume outside of the Wladimir fight is non existent really.

Could Sanders blitz Joshua early ? Absolutely.

But Joshua could also land a right hand bomb on Sanders and put him to sleep.

 

Sanders was 225 pounds vs Rahman which is a good weight for him infact it's the same exact weight that he weighed vs Wladimir which is considered his best win.

This just seems like excuses to me Sanders was fine in the fight it was a back and forth slugfest and Rahman just dug a little deeper simple as that.

 

I'm just telling you the facts.

 

The facts are he weighed 225 pounds vs Rahman which was the exact same weight vs Wladimir which is considered his best win.

So the 225 pounds does not suggest Sanders was overweight vs Rahman.

And everything else is just hearsay and excuses Sanders lost fair and square to Rahman end of.

 

Yes, Sanders was inconsistent from one fight to another, but the OP specifically asked using the "Wlad" version.

 

... he was overweight against Wlad too. Just that he had a better camp vs Wlad.

It's the truth. Cry harder.

 

You're the one making excuses for Sanders losing to Rahman so I think you're the one that's crying about it and can't accept a loss.

 

Great question and hard to predict .

Both fighters had the potential to hurt each other so it might boil down who scores the first hard hit . When it goes to the distance i see sanders gassing first and joshua dominating . My poll is joshua late ko but i would not bet on it . When sanders connects on aj,s chin early joshua goes down.

What can be said : both of these athletes have put wlad to sleep.

 

Sanders's win was way more comprehensive

 

Doubtful Joshua nor Fury could beat any of them consistently either. They certainly don't have the victories over prime, quality opponents to make their case.
