    I think Joshua will win, and do give credit to what he has achieved and how hard he has worked.

    I can never like the man though , I can barely type Bellews words “the second coming of Mike Tyson “ that he constantly used without shuddering.

    You don’t have to like the man just give credit where it’s due.
    If you read some of the threads on here you’d think he was the black David price.

    That has to be measured in perspective though, does he have the best chin ? No but he is certainly no Frank Bruno. I mean he got through klitschko knockdown and for the whole 41 year old thing you can tell he still had the same power.

    Does he have the best gas tank ? No but again he is certainly no David Price. Again he went the full 12 with Joseph parker if he had no tank he wouldn't have.

    I dont think he is one if the best ever but he is certainly one of the best in the world in his division atm.

    Agreed mate. But no arguing that AJ fought the more motivated and prepared version of Klitschko

    Agreed.

    That Wlad didn't want to "pass the torch" or be brought in for the slaughter. He fought his arse off and was in great shape.

    The Fury fanboys never allow a fighter to have an off night. It’s impossible.

    Except when it’s Tyson in fairness. Or Saunders strangely enough.

    I agree, I genuinley think he thought fury was just an idiot who would be easy work. He was proper keyed in for AJ though

    But that doesn't fit the narrative

    Unless you’re a fanatical Fury fanboy.

    Klitschko’s personal issues at the time were well documented. Only someone with a very obvious agenda would make the comment you just made.

    Joshua harem member getting nervous. If Joshua beats the fat SMW, all it proves is that he beat a guy Parker beat and a guy he is naturally a couple of divisions bigger than. It doesn't mean he's now no.1 and better than Wilder or Fury because he corrects an upset, that's laughable. Fury would beat Ruiz with ease, Wilder would probably KO him and I'm sure other HWs would beat Ruiz just as Parker did.

    That’s right mate - every fighter is identically prepared for every fight. They’re always in identical condition. They are never affected by anything.

    Wlad struggles against boxers who move and that's why he had issues with Jennings. There is no way Klitschko wanted to 'pass the torch' over to Fury if you remember in the build up Fury completely humiliated him on several occasions and got to him mentally. Wlad could not cope with his movement and feints (as well as having his trademark spongy ring pulled at the last minute). Wlad and Joshua are very good at what they do but technically Fury is miles ahead of both. He is simply the better boxer of the three.

    To state that a 41 year old man who had been inactive for 18 months since his last loss would be a better version of that one 18 months ago, makes no sense. Common sense tells us the opposite.

    Better boxer who’s dropped by Pajkic and Cunningham and laid out twice by Wilder who’s a crude banger. Wallin hit him plenty as well.

    The narrative keeps changing with Tyson. Post Klitschko he’s the literally unhittable heavyweight Mayweather. Then post Wilder he’s the guy with the iron chin. Make your minds up.

    That’s right mate, fighters never improve, they literally never have a bad camp or have things happening in their personal lives which affect them. This literally never happens.

    I just wanna know who these fanatical Fury fanboys are that keeps being bought up by these AJ/Matchroom diehards. I like the guy and rate him but he was terrible in his last fight against Wallin and I had the fight a draw. I could barely give him a round in the first 6 he was that bad, the worst he's been in a long time. I'm personally hoping as a BOXING FAN that it's the wakeup call that Fury's camp needs and that they try and make the Wilder rematch next instead of fluffing around with these lesser opponents. Same goes for Wilder's camp should he get past Ortiz.
