    If you are on forums saying this kind of thing, you need to pump your breaks a bit and ask yourself why you are a fan of the sport.

    It was a very valid comment. I see tons of Fury fans saying AJ is mentally weak all over social media but they ignore that their man has jacked it at the top by retiring and going on a drug binge.

    You won’t ever see Joshua doing that. I don’t think Fury is this mentally tough gladiator his fans make him out to be. He actually can’t take criticism well at all, he lost his head at Johnny Nelson because he said AJ has more boxing ability than him. When people talk s**t about Joshua he stays quiet and decides to prove them wrong in the ring, Fury goes mental and does rants.

    He can’t handle it at the top I don’t think. The mental pressure of having to constantly defend your title and win against good opponents, I’m not sure he has it in him, that’s why he cherrypicks so often.

    Cool hope he does that. He's probably going to get torn up, but either way it will be an exciting fight.

    He won’t do it. Fury and his team know he doesn’t take uppercuts too well just like Whyte. He said a 210 lb 20 year old amateur AJ buzzed him very badly and nearly knocked him down in sparring when he landed an uppercut at the bottom of his chin.

    Whyte went for the KO as the others but at a certain point he did worse: he started to mock Joshua :facepalm:

    He might actually do it. he's been saying the same thing for months and he's been working with sugar hill Steward. I used to think it was mind games but now im not so sure. We'll wait and see though.

    I’d love to see him try that Kronk s**t on AJ. AJ’s chances of winning then go up.

    Fury looked Tommy Hearns esque as he ran through Wilder with the jab. That was after just one camp in the Kronk Boxing Dojo

    If that Fury turns up again Joshua is getting took out

    AJ being a good inside fighter is a myth

    Fury having power and an iron chin is a complete myth.

    Fury has been talking too much IMO. I think AJ got under his skin a bit with those promoter comments he made. I don’t know maybe I’m reading too much into this I usually find Fury funny to listen to but I don’t know it’s getting a bit boring all the stuff he’s coming out with recently.

    i think its a good idea, if he boxes on the outside he lets joshua build confidence and get comfortable. Wilder was kept in the first fight and was allowed to nearly KO Fury who didnt sufficiently press Wilder. In the rematch he came right after him and wore him down

    Joshua likes to fight at a comfortable pace where he can dictate the range. Fights that get physical or force him to exchange result in him tiring like he did vs Wlad and Ruiz. I think If Fury presses Joshua he can wear him down and stop him. If he fools around with Joshua and moves around and throws 15 punches a round he is going to allow Joshua to comfortably stay in the fight and have chances to keep it close on the cards and maybe even stop him later on in the fight

    AJ is a lot more solid than Wilder. I think this will be a competitive fight early then Fury will find his groove after the 4th round and take over. I am picking Fury by decision I do think AJ will get desperate and try to go for it at some stage but he will back off if Fury catches him with a solid counter and will be content to lose a decision.
