    Against someone with good movement and speed. They will catch him when he starts to gas and it's game over.

    Who is capable of doing that ?

    There isn't very many is there. As much as i can't stand him i think haye knocks him out and so does Povetkin.

    Who else ? Or what other type style will he have trouble with ?

    He has an orthodox style, and could easily be beaten by a slickster like Tyson Fury. This could happen in the next 1-2 years.

    Another type opponent who could beat him, is a big puncher. He is still young enough and hungry enough to not get caught by a shot due to complacency and loss of speed and be stopped. But if it happened twice to an ATG like Lennox Lewis it can happen to anyone.

    If you fight on long enough as a HW at the top level, you will get chinned. Its part of HW boxing reality. This is something likely to happen in the 4 years plus +

    Wilder has the power to KO anyone, he has absolutely no technique but the power is there.

    no boxers have movement like Fury (or even Wlad, who had great footwork during AJ fight) and I think AJ biggest weakness is not his chin (which I think he proved is better than people think) but is his slow feet.
    The Fury that fought Wlad would box rings round AJ, but Fury has been down to smaller punchers than AJ as well. It's am interesting fight if we ever get Fury back at his best!

    I've always said movement is his weakness. So against an agile heavyweight he'll struggle, but only a fit Fury really has a chance, not many agile heavyweights out there atm.

    But this is heavyweights, one punch could change it all, he isn't iron chinned, he can be hurt so a KO loss isn't out of the question, any big puncher will fancy their chances.

    I dont think theres anyone with a boxer style out there bar klitchko that can do it. And at this stage you,d think joshua would win the return. dont fancy fury against him...joshua puts his punches together pretty well at times. Fury will outbox a boxer no sure it would work against joshua tho. The truth is aj,s hurt everyone hes been in with. I dont think furys avoiding that attack for 12 rounds. It ll be a good puncher that beats joshua.

    Ortiz too static slow on his feet and takes punches to land his own. Not the best idea against joshua.

    Haye perfect style...but too small and too old.

    Wilder...actually got a better chance than a few of them that are actually better than him...but styles make fights. Decent reach. Big power...and if he hurts him...he,ll more than likely finish him.

    Parker...great style to beat joshua fast hands good straight puncher puts shots together well. But probably gonna be too small for aj. He ll probably end up getting punched about.

    Whyte...surprising outside chance...joshua didnt like that pressure tho.

    Plus i fancy the guy breazeale beat recently. It ll be someone like that that beats him...that throws big with every shot.

    I think he loses to someone people dont expect. Its all about getting that one punch...that will hurt him in. Maybe a good counterpuncher. Pressure fighter or a big hitter that does it. His biggest weakness is he takes too long to recover when hurt...will be his achilles heel. Dont think getting him hurt takes that much either. For me joshua starts favourite against anyone with a boxer style. Furys longer reach but its not that notable. Ajs actually pretty fast going in to exchanges. I actually think joshua gasses when he gets hit...its not through the amount of punches hes throwing. Go back to whyte it was a good pace...but aj shows no signs of tiredness till hes hit. Same with klitchko in the 5th round...klitchko hits hit with a left i think it was. Thats when the stamina starts to unravel.

    Getting KO'd like almost every HW does eventually that doesn't fight cherrypicked opposition.

    Think the difference between klitchko and joshua for fury is joshua can actually put punches together. Wlad was trying to outbox fury with single punches against a guy a good big bigger with a longer reach. Not the easiest thing in the world to do especially when furys footwork/speed although clumsy is very good. Wlads gameplan was terrible. But ajs game plan was also pretty bad against wlad himself...tried to box him for too long...as soon as he put his punches together wlad couldnt deal with it. Not sure if it was just me but did wlad learn a few tricks from fury against joshua...more feights bit more herky jerky than usual.

    I dont think that style will work...it will against single punches but not against someone that can put their punches together. Actually think fury gets beat down. Klitchko just couldnt work out his style...underestimated fury. Didnt expect not to be able to outbox him. And got stuck without figuring out he had to let his hands go and forget about trying to box him...he was too used to being able to do it against everyone.

    Against David Price, the guy is an iron chinned beast with world class stamina, Joshua won't be able to stand up to that pawing jab/magic wand impression, no one can.

    He will gas out and get hit on the face by an opponent who will not let him off the hook. Too much is being made of his win over Klitschko, if klitschko let his hands go in the 5th and 6th round, history would be completely different

    He will lose when he gets punished by the mummy jab of Pulev. Kubret will show why his loss against Wlad, was a one off. Joshua wont get past the jab, and will quit like Ustinov and Chisora.

    Many styles could pull it off.

    He's going to unload and then gas out. Then he gets crushed.
