Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshua vs. Daniel Raphael Dubois & Anthony Cacace vs. Josh Warrington RBR.

Usky just figures it out and adapts... and keeps coming, expressionless and inexorably.

He's just like The Borg from the '90s Star Trek.

 

When.DDD got rocked I thought the.worst. No way would AJ pull ot out of his arse. Luckily AJs brain.was so rattled from the 18 knock downs in 3 rounds he left himself ridiculosuly wide open to a counter right by a man who's brain was just beginning to come back online.

That was one of the funnier KOs - he was genuinely out cold for a few seconds there. Something not done before to him. I'm putting this in the.KTFO column

 

100%. I predicted Dubois to win but I wasn't expecting such a classy finish, honestly didn't think he had that in his locker.

 

Agreed, to be fair to Joshua, it was a total bomb he got caught with in the 1st round - and whilst he shouldn't have got caught with it - he really paid the price as he never seemed to have his legs under him after it. I was surprised he got up as I thought it was lights out

 

He didn't even see the jab. I was concerned from the very first one that landed.

 

He took a hard punch, but this is boxing. He wasn't rocked. And had enough senses to time a perfect counter.

You're clutching at straws to make excuses for AJ.

 

DDD lost to Joyce, but I think he cracked the granite chin. Look at results since that fight.

 

I think AJ is shot to bits mate. I even think Parker beats him now.
Looking vulnerable is a thing for HW's when in against punches ( even none punches if you can call a 6f 3+ guy a none puncher )
Aj just dosn't have the confidence to fight a puncher on the back foot. The blue print to beat AJ is there pressure him get him backing up and he will fold like a deck chair.
Hearn's rematch clauses just prove he doesn't care about anything other than money but we all know this anyway.

 

Lennox Lewis would brutally knock out Dubois. You gotta appreciate just how brutally he took care of the likes of Razor Ruddock, or Micheal Grant. He showed up, and he showed up damn determined.

Joshua demanded respect during the face of, but not in the ring.

 

Put down the crack pipe lad.

 

Marquez pacman? Springs to mind sure there's been way more similar fights

 

You can´t name them? Not a single top 10 opponent Fury fought?

Alright, I´l do it for you.
Here is Joshua´s resume.

Martin - IBF champ, top 10.
*Klitschko - one fight removed from being the nr 1 in the division. Still widely considered in the top 10, but inactive so the *
Parker - WBO champ, top 10.
Povetkin - top 10, but old. WBA mandatory.
Ruiz - top 10, the rematch.
Pulev - top 10, but old. IBF mandatory.
Usyk - fought him twice, like Ruiz. Funny how a protected fighter would rematch with guys who clearly beat him.
Wallin - top 10

Then there are Takam, Whyte and Franklin. Heck, Whyte was later on widely considered to be in the top 10.
So that´s 7/8 top contenders. Well, you could now add Dubois to it.

Fury:
Klitschko - THE champion.
Wilder
Whyte
Usyk

And then there are: Wallin; who later on was widely considered to be top 10, Cunningham and Chisora.

Joshua has fought twice as many top contenders. Fury is going to have his 8th title fight, Joshua just had his 13th.

 

Roger Mayweather said something about people like you.

 

Disagree. This was as one sided as boxing gets at this level. That south African cruiser gave Dubois a tougher fight.

Dubois was stronger, had faster hands, better fundamentals, out jabbed him, out worked him, out manned him. Joshua looked like the 40 year old men he used to dine out on.

 

A broken clock is correct twice a day. I thought AJ would probably win this, but not surprised that DDD sparks him out with AJ's chin and DDD's power.
