    This type of tactics will lead to Fury being clipped earlier which might happen anyway irrespective.

    He will not walk down Joshua.. Joshua has a jab and a straight right hand. Wilder can't box for ****.

    I believe he can come forward on Joshua at different moments in the fight, but he is much better served boxing on the outside like Joseph Parker did.

    Whatever tactics he choose, won`t work. Joshua is just superior. Some say Joshua is another Klitschko, like this is some bad thing. Klitschko ruined the division for 10 straight years fighting the best infront of him and not ducking anyone, and face his mandatories at times, unlike Wilder or Fury.
    All the props to Fury for beating Klitschko, but that was 100% way past prime Klitschko, 3 months from being 40 years old.
    You know where Fury will be at that age? Long retired or fighting D level bus drivers. Not to mention Klitschko wasn`t with his trainer that made him so good, but with this pretender to be a coach - Banks.
    And Fury really did nothing in that fight. Klitschko actually didn`t do anything as well. Bad day at the office and Fury knew that, and run twice from a 40 years old .....
    This Joshua version is like 10x time superior to the Klitschko version that Fury barely beats(he just landed a few arm punches more in most rounds).
    Fury can`t keep Joshua at distance. He doesn`t have that power jab to hurt and make Joshua think twice to push him. Unlike what people think here, Joshua now have very good footwork and is young, explosive and super fast, he won`t have a problem to cut the distance and he ain`t Wider to just throw a right hand, and even a 35 years old terrible looking Wilder(in the fight 2) landed his right hand many times on Fury, tho he didn`t hurt him.
    Joshua is landing combos. Fury ain`t Ali, he will clinch and there it goes, Joshua is super explosive and doesn`t allow you to tied him up, and he will explode and either a hooks or uppercuts will land, and its game over for Fury.
    Sorry to ruin your dreams, but right now Joshua is on top on his game, and very special fighter is required to beat him.

    Fury is a smart fighter, he figured Wilder out and knew that Wilder couldn't box and could only fight at distance so he crowded him and took away everything he had to work with. However, Joshua knows how to box and if he crowds Joshua, he will receive a proper boxing response in the form of vicious uppercuts and body shots. He needs to box Joshua from a distance.

    It is impossible to get a logical answer from a Fury fan. Especially when it comes to Fury fighting AJ because most Fury fans hate AJ. But the Wilder rematch, was a one-off fight, not the usual for Fury. Usual fights of his look like the Wallin fight or the Klitschko figh . Boring, no KO and almost impossible to rewatch. To think that Fury will all of a sudden beat everybody by KO, is insane. But then again, his cult like fans will believe anything he says so why argue? I mean, it's not like Fury has defended a belt, never took steroids, never kissed men in the ring, fought more than 2 guys in the current top 30 or more than one guy in the WBC top 15. Right???

    Has anyone ever seen AJ fighting going backwards? Except for Ruiz, that is?

    Well, Ruiz had no choice since he couldn't fight the much bigger AJ o the outside. Fury definitely has that choice and it seems fighting fire with fire is a risk he doesn't have to take.

    A belt is a physical representation of a title, totally superfluous only used for marketing purposes.

    Fury has defended his lineal title 6 times

    Wlad, AJ And Wilder all have defended their plastic belts a million times but still got rolled by two fat men who can fight.

    Mauricio Sulaiman has announced Tyistall will be receiving the diamond-encrusted WBC forum dosser belt of the year award if he keeps up his nonsense.

    Ortiz walked Wilder down and had some success doing so.

    Wilder turned down 100 mil to face Joshua. Joshua signed, Wilder didn't. That's all that needs to be said about that.

    AJ likes coming forward, always has and always will. If he respects you he will hold his feet or as with Ruiz try to box moving away which he looked stiff doing.

    It's a style that should do him well against fury with the right tactics. His gas tank can't hold up to Fury's pace though. When he wants to take a break and hold his feet Fury will punish him.

    & when he is getting driven backwards the fight will be over.

    He can't fight going backwards with a big man coming after him.

    Wilder could take a step backwards against smaller men and counter, Fury upset that rhythm though.

    I'm sure AJ can do half a step backwards also, Fury will just press him.

    It's going to be an easy night.

    AJ will try the boxing match with Fury...then he'll lose composure as he tires and throw caution to the wind and lay it on the line bowling forward, then his entire tank will drain and Fury will punish him.

    If AJ starts ring circling away despite losing the boxing match and giving up the ghost then it will be a sad sight to behold.

    If they watch the Otto Wallin fight hoping to take confidence from it they are in for a shock.

    Povetkin and Pulev ??? Aj can go backwards and box but that would be ridiculous to do against Fury

    I expect both fighters to be quite respectful of the other in their approach (once the bell rings if not in the pressers leading up!). I think we'll see some close early rounds where neither gambles much and there is little engagement other than trying to establish the jab and gain centre of the ring. I really think that the styles make a great fight here and we're in for a treat. I think sometimes, as fans, we often show one of each (depending on our favourite) less respect than they'll show each other. I am struggling to pick a winner here. I am so looking forward to it though and sense that we'll see a great event with a deserved and undisputed champion either way

    Fury hasnt fast hands like Ruiz to surprise Joshua. Wrong gameplan.
