This form, I'm sure ALL the same is so enamoured with power and chin. It's funny because the posters addicted to both the most aren't capable of determining if a fighter has a bad or good chin, same with power. Seems power is the determining factor in who's better than who, wtf
Joshua's power is not as good as advertised. Good power, but not great. Has bad stamina and can be hit.................he would knock Wilder out without a doubt though as Wilder is a fraud!
Depends on who is rating it. Anyone who thought AJ was the puncher of the two in the Wlad fight was way overrating it. I think anyone suggesting he doesn't have decent power is underrating it. Takam is a tough dude and fights low with his chin tucked away. Not shaking him up with one shot is no big deal really.
Joshua is definitely not feather fisted. His power is probably comparable to prime Vladimir Klitschko. I think people are judging too much from the Takam fight.
Don't be silly. He doesn't hit harder than prime Klitschko. Joshua has never rendered any fighter unconscious with one punch or ko'd them where they are left motionless on the canvas. He beats his opponents with an accumulation of punches and they usually get back up before being waved off. There is no doubt he hits hard which comes from predominately focusing on strength and plyometric raining which helps give him the explosive power and speed behind his punches along with his formidable size which gives the impression that every single punch is devastating out of this world knock out worthy.
I think their power is comparable but Klitschko could turn somebody's lights out because he was better at setting up his punches and catching them with punches they didn't see.
Props to Takham for making it to the 10th. I think Joshua is deffinately overrated especially by the bookies 1/50 for this fight. I thought Joshua was missing more than I expected him to. He also looked quite stiff and robotic. He has a big heart though and the will of a champion and I think the headbutt might have been a big factor but then the cut to Takhan evened things up IMO. Going forward I think Joshua will be able to defend his title for many fights. I see him beating Parker and Wilder but if Tyson Fury comes back I can see Tyson boxing rings around him and playing with him. One last thing. TO ALL THOSE who make any more threads comparing Joshua to MIKE Tyson and ALI. After thins performance I hope you have come to your senses. Please stop making threads like that before you boy gets KOD.
He often gets light knockdowns and british stoppages, nothing like the devastating bronze bomber and russian vityaz who put people to sleep!
