Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua?

Joshua is ranked because he has the immense british hype machine behind him.
Only the american hype machine is stronger, and not by much.

 

Enjoy the hype machine. We all heard the same said about the robotic Price two years ago.

 

There are still more than a dozen guys out there I would favour over Joshua. Hearn knows this, too, so keep the hype bubble inflating pump at a time, it's a very fragile bubble and can burst. Find a guy with some ko losses, or a passive style, with the best rank. Pump it up as a real challenge etc.. Chisora must now be a Joshua opponent in 2015 methinks.

 

Which is exactly why he will be offered in 2015, and not Price who is more dangerous.

 

Come on.

This is far too vague a question.

Fury's game might not be as aesthetically pleasing as Joshuas, but he is a COMPLETE fighter.
His problem is that he doesnt really excel in any one category.

But, with his sheer size, and complete game, he could easily become a dominant champion.

One problem lies in the fact that I don't think anyone is gonna beat Wladimir and scoop up all them belts.

He finally fought a toe to toe war, with an iron chinned Pulev, and took solid punches from Pulev as well, and tore Pulev down.

So the theory that Wlad's gonna get starched as he ages goes out the window.

That said......he's going to retire in 2 yrs without another loss. He probably won't get a crack at the green belt, but he's still gonna toss 4 belts into the wind, and it's gonna be 10 or more yrs before someone can collect them all and become a DOMINANT Champion as the OP suggests.

I'll say this......

If Tyson is smart, he'll go after that GREEN belt. He's clearly a top WBC contender, so no reason for him to chase the WBO title and all that comes with that, including a 12 rd beatdown.

He can beat Stiverne, Jennings, Wilder or Arreola and win that WBC belt. His only trouble would be Ptvekin, but let's face it....the jab and grab made Potvetkin look worse than Chisora. And I think Fury could effectively implement it and beat Sasha.

Joshua....2-3 yrs time, and I think we'll know more as to if he has any ch1nks in his armour. As of now....tough to tell cuz of his Wilder=esque power. I think Joshua's gonna have similar stamina problems as Wlad and should never fight 47 y/o Ollie McCall, 40 y/o Dominic Guinn, or 53 y/o Ross Purrity.:yep

 

Easy wins are no good to him in my view, he needs solid C class or higher opponents. Sprott is not solid any more as Meehan proved, and this Zarate guy is another journeyman. I would give Price a decent chance vs Joshua because if he can land a bomb it might be enough.

 

Right now?
Fury.

3-5 years, Big Josh
