    Actually, nobody in boxing ever had Joshua's size of biceps or deltoids :think

    Only Bruno and Wlad came close, but they're both smaller than Joshua
    And they were smaller than him at 26, they didn't reach those sizes until their early 30s

    let's see him in the later rounds and then we will know a lot more. everything else is paperwork.

    I would say that Briggs now or Briggs in years past had muscles that size and his stamina is terrible

    he is 6.6 and cut , he is not bigger shoulder /legs /biceps wise than loads of black heavys or yesteryear, maybe he has a smaller waist thats it.

    bruno was a lot wider and a lot thicker through the chest and arms and that slowed him, joshua looks to have a lot more fast twitch muscle, albeit in athletics that mnakes a explosive athlete and not a distance runner.

    I see that's why all modern HW s are all far better than the ones from the 70s to the 90s so David haye was better than Ali foreman was a wimp those guys went 15 rnds but aren't very fit .sprinters lift weight how would they do in a 5000 m race ? Power is fine but what happens if the fights go long ? Power is no use without stamina.
