    I will say he's much better at using his reach from what I've seen.

    Really?

    Joshua is very good, but he doesn't fight big, and when he does he looks awkward and timid.

    Despite his recent misfortunes, he has done enough to be a clear favorite over Buddy Baer, but I am seeing similar strengths and weakness.

    Baer knocks him out. Joshua still has a lot of improvements to make before I could see him beating Baer. Joshua’s lack of head movement would result in him eating a lot of leather against Baer and Baer also had a better jab than Joshua and could fight better on the inside better.
