    London was tough and rugged, but AJ outguns him in every department.

    Too big, too strong, too fast and too powerful.

    I can remember as a nipper, watching Joe Bugner handing him an early round stoppage which I think was his last fight. He must have had the best part of 20 losses in his career. As Furey said, a tough, rough house of a man, brave too, but up against Jerry Quarry, Patterson, Cooper X 3, he was always going to be on the rough end of things.

    London was extremely game and would fight anyone anywhere.
    He was also a fiery character his dad was ex British heavyweight champion, and they were probably more suited to fighting in the street as this shows!

    Joshua wins this easily.

    Too big. Too brown.

    Thoughts? No, I literally have never given this any thought, nor am I likely to.
