    Just watched his fight and I must say, even though I'm British, he's seriously terrible. He's just raw strength and power, but he's slow as a snail.

    I don't see what you see. I see a future pro, he likes to exchange and looks to have heavy hands.

    Didn't see the fight, but thats too bad to hear. Was looking for a few prospects to come out of these Olympics, yet they continue to lack skill at all weight classes. Snooze fest so far...

    He is in no way a finished article, don't be shocked if he stays ammy for a while even if he is somehow wins gold.

    Depends on your expectations.You know that any medal prospect is going to be bullshitted to the rafters.I never thought he was a world beater,so I'm pleasantly surprised he managed the robbery tonight.

    I was honestly more impressed by Savon than by Joshua tbh.

    Savon is already Pro Level.

    Savon is a Pro at this stage. Joshua wobbled him bad in R2.

    I say pretty good performance. Savon is the clear cut #2 in the tournament, so what did you expect from a green prospect like Joshua?

    Savon clearly beats him and gets robbed what a suprise. Cuban should have won by around 8 points.

    In the Pros KO2 Savon would have been out. This is the Olympics with head gear. Joshua landed the big punches, Savon landed the faster and more flashy ones.

    If Joshua wants to do well he has to turn Pro

    If he had started boxing younger he's have a good chance of becoming a great boxer...

    but no chance.

    Could still KO alot of bums in the heavy division

    Joshua is sooooo slow!

    Big and powerful but sluggish, flat footed, slow reflexes and overhyped :deal

    Slow, plodding, flat-footed. There's only so many gift decisions he can receive before his luck runs out.
