Anthony Joshua vs Evander Holyfield

Jury is still out. AJ looks very impressive but it's still too early.

 

Far too early to be matching Joshua against this type of fighter.

He might be the next dominant champion, or he might be a colossal disappointment.

 

Tua and Byrd were just young prospects when Ibeabuchi beat them though. They were not anybody yet. For all we know two characters Joshua has already beat could go on to be the next Tua and Bryd?

 

I cant see it to be honest. Maybe, just maybe Dillian goes on to do something. Charles Martin? I don't think were ever going to see him again.

 

So far, all I can see is power, what happens if/when someone gets past that?

Along with his chin, I still need answers regarding his will to win/heart and stamina in a competitive fight.

Its all good when you're the one giving, I want to see what he's like when he's on the receiving end.

 

Tua was the Intnl WBC champ and had beaten Ruiz& Maskaev he was 27-0-0 .
Byrd was 26-0-0 and had beaten Thunder,Jackson,Ribalta and Cooper.

 

I think he showed heart and the willing to win when he was hurt in the Whyte fight....

 

This.

And Whyte's best win was shot Brian Minto, while Martin won vs Glazkov via injury.

Joshua looks very impressive and has tools, but his opposition wasn't good so far. Whyte was his best opponent and we don't know much about Whyte yet.

 

Joseph Parker has just got by Carlos Takam,when/if Joshua takes on and beats such opponents we will know more.:good

 

evander outhustles him over 12 rounds.

 

To Even compare a AJ to the Real Deal is insulting, Evander would have ate this mug for breakfast, all you Joshua groupies are going to be gutted when he faces a live opponent, because AJ is going down.

 

Yes and I agree. But I do think that in addition to power he's quite mobile for a man his size and has decent boxing skills. But the stamina, heart, chin, fortitude, etc still need to be proven. For right now he's at least fighting and beating better comp than most guys do in their first 16 bouts even if it isn't stellar.

 

He took two punches from a guy he was meant to beat and did a funny dance and then beat him up.

Id hardly give him a bravery medal for that to be honest.

But, it was the only time someone touched his chin, that and when Cornish stunned him with a jab.

 

He's definitely better than David Price who was quite hyped.

He's got the size and seems to show some IQ, but i want more.

Charles Martin I never want to see again.

 

Who has picked Joshua?:huh
