    This is boxing. Inside the top 5, you shouldn't really be shocked by one man beating another.

    Depends on how it happens.
    If AJ nails him and follows up with a combo which results in a brit stoppage, annoyed but not surprised.

    If he outboxes Fury on the backfoot and cruises to a decision, very surprised.

    I'd expect Joshua to win. Unlike Wilder he's big enough to deal with Fury's sheer size, in terms of power he's not that far behind and his technique is on a completely different level.

    I’d be surprised for sure but not oh my god surprised. AJ is still a very good fighter and a very physically gifted man, he’s 6’6” 240 lbs, and he’s not a stupid man by any means. But for me Fury has the tools, will, and boxing iq to beat him. Either way I’ll be tuning in when those 2 meet in the ring.

    Klitschko was landing his jab? What 2 jabs a round? Actually look at the punch stats. Poor wlad holds the record for least punches thrown in a 12 round title fight against fury. Fury threw and landed much more

    No, it didn't. I was annoyed, and bitched about the quasi rabbit punch that ****ed up Wilder's equilibrium for the rest of the fight.

    That he's the best Heavyweight since Lennox Lewis.

    That of course is if AJ wins by stoppage or a legit points win, dodgy scorecards and it won't mean much except there'll be calls for a rematch and we'll have to wait another 6 months for a conclusion.

    Just so everyone is aware I've now reported this thread as a hate crime under the Malicious Communications Act 1988 UK. Charges will be brought forward against all who are deemed in contravention of stated law.

    I will head the civil and criminal legal proceedings as the plaintiff

    Please could the ESB mods get in touch as we may be able to resolve this out of court for only a small fortune
