    and also the dychko gift was over shadowed by the savon and cammerelle robberies:lol:

    exactly his footwork and movement is at best basic and on the slow side. his strengths are he is a big guy with good power who is very strong and quiet explosive. id also add he does seem like a good finisher, however a flurry of arm punches will cause a british stoppage

    brits wont ever get on the fury bandwagon ,he is an irish traveller and hated for it:lol: i think its hilarious when joshua has an MBE for a robbed olympic medal, Carl Frampton got an MBE before even the Quigg fight and the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world with a win over a 10 year reigning dominant champion (imo in the top 5 best wins ever by a british boxer) doesnt get an recognition:lol: he is not seen as being really british by a lot of the public more of an outsider

    then again jimmy saville was knighted and fury is quiet outspoken about his hate for kiddie fiddlers, maybe the royal family doesnt like that

    Well, he does look better shadow boxing than in actual fights. In the fights I've seen Martin in his footwork is a mess and he throws mostly pawing weak jabs begging to be countered and weak arm punches, when he actually tries to put some weight behind his punches he often loses his footing and balance, looking like a clumsy mess in the process.

    Funny because in their last fights AJ looked to have better combinations while Martin looked like a stiff. It's much different against a live opponent than shadow boxing

    If Martin can survive the early onslaught I think he can outbox AJ or possibly stop him late.

    Nah brah. AJ going to light that dude up. One reservation I had on his was chin but the dillian fight showed he can take a crack. Also stamina with a guy that big. AJ is basic but very strong.

    They aren't even trying.

    But Joshua's arms keeps getting bigger every month that passes, it's insane, he's already by FAR the most muscular HW EVER!

    :good

    Pretty good comparison. Tim showed up out of shape looking like his training camp was located next to a Burger King, but he really whipped Bruno that night. One of my favourite KOs.

    Yes he does remind me of Frank .Bruno was a good fighter with real KO power but would have done even better if he was more fluid .if Joshua can be as good as Frank remains to be seen but I would like to see him less bulked up he is huge which is fine until he fights someone who takes him into the late rnds.l would like to see him looking more like lewis or maybe Holmes rather than the hulk.

    It's crazy to give awards like MBEs to young guys who are still active. Lenox Lewis should have a knighthood by now what more could he do ?.I think lots British people like fury he is a nutter that's a very British thing and he isn't a yes man got he's own ideas fair play to him and he has bottle that's what I like about him.PS I wonder if the American users of this forum know who Jimmy saville is? That might take some explaing
