Tony Thompson confirms that Joshua is next, no date announced yet

rubbish!
people on here were calling for wilder vs thompson!:hi:

 

everyone's an expert these days. Lets just relax, sit back, and see what kind of fighter AJ really is. How deep is his desire to fight like there is no tomorrow? Its about time we let some of these fighters out of their vages and find out what they are really made of aint it!???!!!deal:deal

 

Even at 44 Thompson is still a decent test. He is 3 and 2 in his last fight having fought decent competition. Good test for Joushua I thought they might have saved Thompson for early next year or very end of this one

 

Thompsons success against current contenders says more about how terrible the heavyweight division rather than how good Thompson is. If Joshua is as good as billed then he should be beating a fat, 44 Thompson, even this early in his career.

 

Thompson is old, soon he will be 44. If it was prime Tiger i would bet for him for sure, but now Joshua probably stops him.

 

Joshua ends Thompson's career.

 

I'll take TT, he went the distance with Takam, is Joshua better than Takam?

 

Dangerous fight to take at this early stage for Joshua. Thompson has shown twice against Price and against Solis he isn't to be taken lightly.

We need to see how Joshua will cope with the cagey Johnson first which in itself is a step up. If he struggles there in any way I doubt he'll jump in with TT just yet.

If AJ beats Johnson convincingly then he would have to be favoured over Thompson as Thompson looked very old against a very fat Solis. He's slowed considerably since the Price fights. Which is maybe why Joshua is now being steered his way. If AJ wins then it would be a solid win and firmly place AJ as contender.

I think AJ would stop Thompson but it wouldn't shock me if TT pulled off another upset, Thompson is far better than anyone else AJ has fought so far.

 

Not even the biggest AJ hater could talk down this fight, he would be Tyson furys best opponent Thompson would be !

 

:good:good:good

 

It's depends on how he handles his power.I think they are even.

 

Thompson is going to knock Joshua out. Joshua has no Chin and no stamina.

 

I think you mixed something up here.. Ist about Joshua.. Anthony Joshua ... its not about China chinned and arm punching Tyson Fury.. Ist about the one who can box and not about the one who just can talk and duck every half live contender :deal

Joshua = talented young boxer with power and skills
Fury= 2,06 hypejob that can ran his mouth and even run faster if he get called out

 

So long as he beats Johnson, then it's another good step up. TT owned Price, so it is certainly a marker.

I'd back AJ, have a good feeling about him

 

Voted Thompson KO. Its more of a wishful thinking than anything but damn it, Tiger is just such al likeable guy.

I just don't see how anyone can root against him.
