    Joshua by KO.

    Be reasonable.

    How explosive was Chisora tonight?

    Now, compare that with Joshua.

    A bit of a different look Fury would need to cope with, don't you think?

    If Joshua has a chin he definitely wins, because there's no way Fury's mandible could take his power.

    This is actually a tough one.

    I think AJ has enough amateur experience that would transition well to help him beat Fury (even at this juncture). Fury makes some very bad fundamental mistakes and is relatively slow.

    Joshua would not have to lunge toward Fury like Chisora did. Fury doesn't have a very good defense and Joshua seems to be a very powerful puncher.

    Joshua is about 4 years away from being where Fury is now, which is one fight away from a world title challenge.

    By the time Joshua gets there (if), Wlad will most likely be retired and the division will be wide open.

    They are at completely different stages and neither needs one another now.

    Dunno.....Joshua is already ranked by the WBC and WBA. Probably about 18 months from an eliminator as thing he will be busy again next year.

    At the moment, Fury.

    Much more experience at the world stage. Much higher caliber opposition. And the best is yet to come, apparently.

    But i wouldn't be surprised if in the long distance Joshua came up to be better.

    He looks tremendously promising, and for sure it would be an hell of a fight.

    Joshua would brutalize Fury now IMO.

    Joshua's a proper athlete. He don't rely on height, he's blessed with good power and talent. Fury wouldn't survive the early onslaught.

    if the fight happened tomorrow fury will be favourite, long term Joshua may well turn out to be better though

    both are in their mid 20's, so theres potential for a few fights between the two assuming they have careers going into their mid 30's.

    chisora will be a good opponent for AJ, (hopefully not PPV!) aj's fights against Johnson and chisora will give a better indication of how good he can become.

    That's really funny, because Fury often times abandons his height advantage to a large degree and fights on the inside, throwing body shots, etc.

    Fury has talent, there's no denying that.

    Fury roughs Joshua up in the clinch and wears him down and stops him around the 8th round. Joshua isn't ready for this type of fight.
