    He was obviously being helped by someone on the left side of the bar plus the spotter grabbed it from him and he didn't go down all the way. That's why everyone is laughing their asses off lol

    Physical strength plays a really big part in fighting, also on the psychological side. If you fight a guy and feel that he is strong as a bull you are getting intimidated.
    Wlad and especially vitali were famous for being physically strong. You could see it in the clinches. Fury and joshua are also physically very strong as also whyte.
    Wlad was very impressed of Joshua's strength. Fury is a very big man with farmer boy strength. Joshua vs fury will be a burner fight.

    Strong physical fighters:
    Fury, joshua, whyte, pulev
    Gassiev
    Beterbiev, ward
    GGG, canelo
    Spence
    Garcia
    Tank
    Inoue

    Look at how Holyfield manhandled Tyson in their two fights, and he was the lighter man.
