    I personally think Fury's style would be too awkward for Joshua and he would frustrate and take Joshua on a points victory. How do you see it going?

    I don't think fury is nearly as good as many on here. He sure has skills and awkward moment but I think Wladimir will KO him in the rematch.....he'll throw a lot more punches next time and will catch him more... AJ will with his youth do it the same but quicker IMO.

    Fury is too awkward, unorthodox and long-range for Joshua. Fury by UD, over 12 rounds in a semi-boring fight.

    Fury uses the same tactics as the Wlad fight but Joshua clips him while Fury is running a marathon. Joshua ko.

    fury avoids this fight with all his might. just like he ducked any real challenge on his way to a title shot. he is every bit as bad as wilder.

    Joshua knocks him out. If featherfisted cruiser Steve Cunningham could put Fury on the canvas, a heavy-hitting HW such as Joshua will destroy him. Fury is out cold within 4 rounds, tops.

    How many fights has Fury had ? Not that many really...25 fights. And really apart from his boring but clear win over an old Wlad he's not really done that much. As I posted before - Wlad in the rematch probably lets his hands go a lot more and KO's him. Same with any busy live young top heavyweight...AJ has the size to never be far away from Fury. He like Wlad is more dedicated, has way more power than Fury and is a lot busier than Wlad was in their first fight....too many shots to evade over 12 rounds. Somethings gonna land and put Fury to sleep. I'm still not sold on Fury - he definitely has some good skills but people get way too carried away way too soon....he's no Ali - not even close. Against Wlad he was just a flash in the pan...after the rematch if Wlad keeps his promise to let more shots go - people will then realise after the massacre that Wlad is a different league - as most thought before he was prior to losing to Fury.

    I think should Wlad show himself to be shot and past it then Fury will cash out vs AJ or Wilder - and either will KO him.

    Fury overated
    Joshua untested
    Fury as been dropped by boxers with less of a dig than Joshua. Fury has the better movement but as soon as Joshua lands a few big ones on him i think Fury will be finished..

    I think Fury would adopt similar tactics to the Wlad fight. He'd use his height and reach and try and take Joshua's power out of the equation by simply not being there to hit. Problem he has is that Joshua isn't Wlad he knows how to lead and be aggressive.

    But I'd favour Fury at the moment to win a decision. He's proven he is currently the best heavyweight on the planet and I think Joshua will struggle with Fury's movement like he did against Savon and Dychko in the Olympics. Fury wins a competitive decision.

    But in a couple of years or so this may change. Joshua is improving and Fury is a guy who's lack of self discipline could see him decline far sooner than you'd expect.

    If Joshua can't get to fury early he will be dragged into deep water and drowned.Joshua will run out of puff in the late rnds .also I admire peoples optimism regarding vlad unfortunately wishful thinking doesn't win fights.
