    Opponent is Dillian Whyte, who Joshua has been having twitter arguements with.

    Isn't that Anthony Joshua's second ever amateur fight in 2008 or so?
    Does not mean a thing, right?

    exactly. Joshua has an iron jaw.

    Well, if you put it that way! :lol:

    Ok I just checked, seems to be his 5th fight or so, when he was 20?
    Yeah he looks bad there, but it has been a while has it not? Anyone
    can go down being hit flush like that. I don't believe is the once down
    always suspect theory on chins.

    Not that I am in any way partial towards Joshua btw. But cut him some
    slack, he has definitely improved a whole lot since 2009.

    I thought Joshua looked troubled at times during the Olympic final

    The guy was gifted a Gold medal with blatant hometown cooking, he's likely comprised of British glass.

    Some but he has a pair of stones. Joshua was lucky to beat Savon in an early Olympic draw. But he does fight back when hit.

    He was a total novice back then. Whyte might have been too but Joshua has improved tremendously since then. The stoppage loss against the Romanian Nistor in the 2011 European championships was more worrying, but even then he did get cracked with a couple of peaches of shots. And his chin did hold up well against big punchers like Cammarelle (x2), Savon and Medzhidov.
