My initial analysis of the Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshua vs Luke Tyson Fury contest

Wrong dead wrong.

 

Fury beat Wlad with 1 hand behind his back and could beat Ruiz with both hands tied behind his back

Meanwhile AJ flaps in the wind.

 

While it is possible I'd certainly be surprised if Aj actually managed to box well with Fury. Hell Klitschko couldn't even do it and Klitschko is a better pure boxer than Aj

 

Yeah whatever. Let him try that both hands behind his back **** with AJ and he gets clocked.

 

The thing is Klitschko is essentially a defensive cautious boxer and against Fury he was out of his element boxing against someone bigger , taller with a longer reach and Klitschko is not also the athlete AJ is.

 

Otto "Automatik Ballin'" Wallin.

 

All the more reason Aj should just march forward and put the work on Fury by means of jabbing to the body and letting his hands go, chin down hands up type of mentality. While Aj is a decent boxer. He'd make things easier for Fury by working at range, Fury is the best long range boxer i have ever seen in my life and he's comfortable at it. Aj better cut off that ring and put Fury in a position he doesn't want to be in

 

AJ’s speed is going to cause Fury problems and boxing him not fighting him but boxing him aggressively is very viable tactic. This type of fight you need to be good at range, mid range and on the inside and attacking from angles.

 

Bet he didn’t, I bet no one did lol
It’s a cure for insomnia, bloody awful Olu !

 

Well I've always said jabbing to the torso is a viable option. But like you said. If he intends to box he has to do it aggressively. No bullcrap, just march forward, cut off the ring, jab the body, box his way into close range like Wallin did and let lose those combinations. DONT throw the kitchen sink and gas, just keep a steady workrate and calmly control the pace.

Dont give Fury any breathing room, walk him down, cut the ring down, break him down round by round, put him down and TKO him. It's the only way that Aj can win imo.

But you do say that Joshuas skills will give him trouble in a boxing perspective and i can agree. Realistically speaking Aj will be the only person Fury has faced that can rival the boxing skills of Klitschko. But pure boxing wont be enough to beat him

 

TLR anyone?

 

Pure boxing then Tyson Fury will hope to fiddle his way to a points win. I agree with you aggressive boxing is key but if Tyson comes out aggressively which he has suggested he gets clocked early otherwise AJ can give him a gradual beat down and stop him in the middle to late rounds.

 

I love Fury... writes 200 words

I quite like Joshua too ... Waxes lyrical for near 700

Hmm...there is something I can't quite put my finger on...

 

Joshua is his guy. Late stoppage

 

I read it and whilst its a good article ,its exactly that

An article id expect to read in a outlet

I thought we would get a more tactical read but maybe i expected how you were going to write it differently

I do agree Fury can not fight AJ in the same manner as he did Wilder although where my view differs slightly is that he can not do that over the course of 12 rounds or however long the fight lasts

He needs to mix his style he used, say in the Chisora 2 fight and interchange at key moments back to the Kronk style he has recently implemented

That's key for me

He can earn AJ's respect if he can show him he can hurt him and not just outbox him

If he manages to achieve that then personally i cant see how AJ overcomes it
