    AJ will lose the fight in the build up, he'll be constantly teary eyed when he runs out of rehearsed woke catch phrases to reply to the wittiest boxer since Ali, and might revert to his Watford roadman act.

    Then he'll be chewing around with his gumshield when he's faced with 6'9, 270 lbs of flabby gypsy fury across the ring.

    What tosh.

    Canelo has fought many styles, comes in with different game plans per opponent, and adapts mid fight.

    He must have tried to fight mayweather about 4 different ways throughout the fight and it was what, 7 years ago?

    He attacked ggg two different ways.

    His style has also changed to favour his attributes as he moves up in weights.

    Hes also one of the few boxers who works the body. Like other great body punchers it wears down the opponents for easier picking later rounds.

    Honestly?

    He was unable to adapt anything in the first GGG fight. Still to this day its laughable that his Boxrec looks like this when it comes to GGG:
    Green = Win
    Red = Loss
    Blue = Draw

    His Boxrec vs GGG:

    In reality it should looked like this:

    So or so he should have an

    Fury only adapted once during a fight: Cunningham. First he tried to box him and fool him around, after the KD he became offensive and beat him down with pure strenght and his mass. Cunningham was the only Boxer he´d ever faced who was more skilled as himself.

    Fury is one of the most versatile fighters of all time. He makes even great pro's look one-dimensional, because most boxers have one set style of fighting they can only switch up their gameplan.

    After 2 months with Sugar Hill he came out with a full-bodied jab which he has never shown before and thew it with great success, a from the hip stiff-arm battering ram. You know how rare that is to see from a veteran boxer? never mind a heavyweight. It's almost unheard of.

    It's a shame his power punch right hand is his let down & always will be, he has to turn it into an overhand punch to get any leverage on it. The beauty of Fury is he tends to be able to throw from all distances and angles. He throws many sneaky shots on the inside opponents don't see whilst they are busy trying to wrestle him.

    You have me misunderstood. I didn't say he won or lost, I said he attacked him two different ways.

    1st fight he concentrated on not standing in front of him, making sure to pivot away from the right hand.

    2nd fight he stayed in the centre and traded.

    You make excellent points, which is why I made sure to mention Canelo’s obvious skill, don’t mean to diminish his greatness as a fighter at all. My point, at least part of it, was that he had all the tools to win as far as physical and mental toughness, and he is a very smart fighter but, he never figured Mayweather out. Fury is similar to Mayweather with ring IQ, both had gloves on before they could walk.

    I’m a little surprised with how tough Canelo is mentally, he doesn’t see Joshua’s weakness there, and I don’t mean that Joshua is weak mentally, just not on the same level as Canelo or Fury.

    My main point though, I think he’s wrong about Joshua beating Fury. Whether my justifications are sound or not won’t change said belief. I do appreciate your input on Canelo though, he has my respect and I don’t want to come across otherwise.

    The way I see it, AJ has to land the all-important upper-cut for a chance to win, although even then, Fury's powers of recovery are quite remarkable and there's a good chance he gets back up. Moreover, Fury's size and speed will certainly cause problems for AJ, who isn't used to being the smaller man and will need to risk taking the fight to Fury if he's to have any hope of winning because he certainly won't be able to outbox 2Fast. This is just my opinion of course and I'd be the first to admit my predictions are not always on point.

    AJ wishes he could have done Wlad like Fury did

    Now AJ fights scared trying to stay long but is straight up bad at it. All because one little fat man rolled him over.

    The only thing Joshua is superior to Fury is admiring himself in the mirror

    The real question is, will you be here, after Fury gets the *** kicking of a lifetime ???? Or you will gone into hiding like that Dillian Whyte fan, who gone missing, after Povetkin shatter that chin of Whyte with that holy uppercut !!!
    Same thing going to happen to that hypejob Fury.
    I just hope people on here finally give Joshua the credits he deserved.
