    Fury hits the canvas from a Waldo jab...

    so Waldo has to be tender with Fury
    once he gets up so he can give him a
    Pizza Face without knocking him out
    accidently... of course once the desired
    Pizza Face is complete then Waldo can
    begin sending Fury to the canvas until
    he stays there face down...

    :dead :yep

    Right now - hard to pick (don't know much about Joshua' stamina). But AJ improves quickly

    In 12-18 months - Joshua by KO

    You've pretty much milked this for all its worth, which at this stage is basically nothing. And its worth nothing for reasons people have explained to you many, many times. Reasons you simply refuse to acknowledge. So there is no point in responding.

    Yes, but Jennings looked more effective against him than Povetkin did.

    I'm not saying definitively Povetkin can't beat a taller fighter with power, I'm just saying he hasn't proven he can yet, that's why you can't see he'd 100% beat Joshua.

    Bottom line, you can't automatically give a guy a win over a fighter who is unlike anything he's faced before.

    I hate the hype around Joshua, the man has done nothing but shown he has unbelievable power and the perfect body :)lol:). There's so much more to it than that and I hope Whyte exposes this.

    People talk on here like Povetkins unbeatable, when he's far from it. Joshua stops him

    He is also an Olympic gold medalist boxer. I'm not really a Joshua fan, but don't act like there is not some reason for the hype around him. He has a lot to prove but there is no question he has awesome potential.

    Agreed. Povetkin is good, don't get me wrong, but people act like he is Mike Tyson in his prime. He doesn't have anywhere near that kind of speed to get inside like he could on taller powerful fighters like Wilder or Joshua, and until he proves that you can't give him guys like that.

    Lets face it, Russian fighters have been a tad overrated ever since Ivan Drago. Many people thought Valuev was unbeateable too.
