Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury I - Official Prediction and discussion thread

Honestly I dont understand how anyone can pick Fury by KO/TKO. AJ will not be troubled by Fury's "power", if Fury doesn't engage then he wins a wide points decision but if tries to bully and fight Joshua inside then he goes quick and brutal

 

You reckon he'll turn down that amount of money? Never in a million years.

 

If Ruiz can stop him Fury can too.

 

I think i agree with all of that

 

A.J didn't had 270 lbs dude with Fury size in the ring for fight.

Will see.
Fury might clinche too, for A.J looks that he loves to box and isn't boxer - clincher by character.

 

Ruiz is a bigger puncher than Fury

 

details are a bit hazy but didn’t he get striped for signing on to the Wlad rematch? I know he also kinda had a mental breakdown dealing with K2 around that time but fact still remains.. Joshua never beat the man for real Fury been the real champ Joshua just keeping the belts warm

 

You mean after Fury ducked 40 years old Klitschko twice, right?

 

Is he? I'd say when Fury sits down on his punches there's probably not much in it. Neither has ferocious 1 punch KO power.

 

Well, Purrity, Sanders and Brewster certainly trashed Wlad. But he is still considered Fury's best win.

And yes Povetkin was old but clearly still good. As was Wlad. I don't think it's that implausible that the Wlad that AJ beat was better than the one Fury beat.

And judging from how totally nuts people have gone over Fury's win over Wilder, I can't see why they wouldn't be excited by one over AJ. Not least since it will be Fury's first defence ever.

I do agree, though, that beating Fury would be impressive, And as for talk of rust the Fury camp doesn't seem too concerned since they have gotten a tune-up, But it will of course still be something they point to if he loses. Which means that they will call themselves incompetent, in essence.

 

Okay you are on.
Forever ban and don`t come here with different acc.
But i allow you to come here in the next few days after the fight, so i can laugh my *** on you. I will do the same, and then gone forever.

 

I suppose it depends how you judge it, Fury has clubbing power but 100% Ruiz has more "pop"

 

Well, 38 y.o Wlad then had belt, 41.y.o Wlad did not had belt and was old.

Old.

People love Fury because he fought in U.S vs Wilder and in Germany vs Wlad.
Wilder is not old.

 

I mean did you watch the first fight? Even if it was boring Fury comprehensively outboxed and embarrassed Wlad who at that point was still on his decade long reign, by comparison you have who for long stretches was getting outboxed and even dropped by an even older Wlad before managing to land that big shot.
I know styles make fights and it’s not useful to make direct correlations but Fury in his biggest fights have clowned his opponents in and out the ring

 

Let me breakdown this .....
First Fury inactivity its all on him. He could have fight by now already. He had a fight scheduled in November/December, but he decide to stay on his lazy fat ****. Not to mention that he could have an easy tune up in January, February and even March, and still have a full camp and be 100% ready for Joshua. I wanted to clear that out.

Now on to the fight and both fighters. Fury is hugely overrated. The guy is a proven cheat, PED user, and a huge ducker. He run twice from rematch with Klitschko. But somehow people on here are just riding the strong of the day and forget everything. If that was Joshua, he would have been smashed to the ground.
Fury not taking care for his body and health its going to hurt him finally. He was lucky a few times, but that luck ain`t last forever.

As far as the fight with Joshua, its exactly the opposite as people trying to make it. Joshua is all wrong for Fury. Joshua is a prime fighter, unlike Klitschko, and its not limited and terrible boxer and a cherry picker like Wilder.
I don`t care what everyone on here say, its quite obvious most people don`t know s**** about boxing and can`t see clear as light things.
Joshua is faster, stronger, more powerful, the better technical fighter, way better combination puncher, as way as well better on the inside.
Joshua footwork improved tremendously in the last few years. So Fury can`t offer anything to stop Joshua or outpoints him.
If he try to run for 12 rounds, he will be caught and KOed. I mean Fury got a good footwork, but when you get close, Fury just clinch, instead of moving away with his feet, and this ain`t going to work against Joshua. Joshua is also a big man and know how to get in a position to land his punches, and he have the speed, the explosiveness to do it.
If Fury decide to take the approach as he did with Wilder 2, he will be KTFO even faster. Joshua will find him very quick and will KO him.
People on here also loves to talk about the gas tank. But Fury cardio is nothing to talk about. The guy is throwing not so much punches per round, and they are mostly arm punches. Good luck with that against Joshua.
Joshua cardio is way better compare to what it was before, and he know how to not overspend himself. But he throw way more punches, and goes way more for the KO, and throws a lot of combination, of course that will drain your gas tank.
While i rate Fury high i still think the guy is hugely overrated on here. He ain`t nothing special, and Joshua will prove just that.
I expect a 100% one side beating.
I backed my words with a Lifetime ban already.
Lets see who is right.
