Will 'Big Baby' Miller be able to walk through Anthony Joshua's power?

Wach was a selected opponent and you could argue all his opponents were of the same ilk with limited power.
I’d be surprised if he could walk through AJs punches and he’ll have that uppercut in the back of his mind.

 

And why would anyone want to,be smart and avoid the big shots should be the plan.

 

Joshua will need perfect timing for his punches to be effective against Miller. Otherwise they will be absorbed short like pushes and Joshua will gass out mid rounds against the much heavier enforcer.

 

Either winning wouldn't be a big surprise. I know everyone wanted Joshua v Wilder/Fury (so do I), but this is not the mismatch some people are proclaiming it to be.

just want to post that I think Miller will win... not sure how people think AJ is better boxer but to each their own. AJ is too stiff IMO...I think Miller has what it tkaes more than any HW (maybe nto Fury) to beat him. Just want it on record so i can whip my di.ck out in June and swing it around

 

Nobody walks throughout Joshua’s power. He may not be the most skilful, elegant boxer but he definitely can bang

 

The way some people talk about Joshua on here, I could swear blind that he is a mix between the worst aspects of Nikolai Valuev, David Price and Gerald Washington combined.

If he is as bad as you think he is, he wouldn't have even got past Kevin Johnson, let alone won 3 of the 4 World Titles.

 

No...Miller isn't all that, which will be pretty clear after the fight.

 

It was round 7 for both Whyte and Breazeale. It might seem petty mentioning that, but it’s the finer details that you seem to have washed over for your argument.

I concede that I think Miller will be stronger in the clinch, and has the physical capacities to man handle Joshua. However, your references to both Parker and Takam have little foundation here.

Firstly, both fighters are technically a level above Miller, and are certainly slicker, especially when fighting in defensive mode. This brings me onto my second point. Both fighters were on the back foot. Should Miller take that approach I haven’t seen anything to suggest he can be elusive, causing Joshua to regularly miss. Should he come forward, which I think he will, I haven’t seen enough of Miller to think he can absorb Joshua’s power.

I think for Miller the latter part is what’s intriguing for most; can Miller come through Joshua’s power. Because if he can, it’s then about can Joshua keep up with whatever pace Miller sets.

 

I've no problem with the round correction regarding Whyte and Breazale, I couldn't remember if they were round 7 or 8 by memory, It's been a while since I watched both so .

I do believe Takam is "technically" in terms of craft at a higher level, I have in the past and continue to dispute that Parker is technically gifted at all. And you are correct, both did fight defensively against Joshua. Miller, my position is that he has had no need to be elusive because he's walked through everything, it's simply his style. Miller is huge and I can't see him being pushed around by anyone. It just doesn't seem likely. I see him pushing Joshua more than the opposite.

I agree that there is a question mark how much he can take from Joshua, but thus far he's done it against others so I've no reason to dispute it, yet. I personally feel that Miller has the ability to get inside and stay inside and lay on Joshua potentially nullifying Joshua's ability to throw. I've seen Miller do excellent work on the inside. If and I admit, it is a big if, he can walk through Joshua's shots, the fight is gonna be very interesting because to date Miller's engine (despite his size) has been excellent.

 

miller looks like he has a good chin
he is big thickset both in legs/body neck
and has walked through wach /duhaupus/ dinu/washington/adamek punches
but these are his best opposition and the comparison between walking through a wach/duhapus/washington pun h and walking through a joshua punch is chalk and chese

aslo these 5 opponents were all going backwrds most of the fight / not sitting down on anything and not geiving miller anything to feel he has to get out of the way off.

if miller empoys the same lack of head movement and negligeance to defense v aj
then aj is going to be able to step in with full power and put full body weight and power befind left hooks /uppercuts and straight rights and hit the button most times.

and IMO even if he does not ko miller with them he will get millers respect and make miller unwilling to walk through the aj power and that would end his chance of winning by attrition.

 

Chisora would beat fat slob Miller

 

Ooh Christian Hammer, scary, you're right Wach must have Foreman like power because he KO'ed a novice Christian fricken Hammer who had only 8 fights to Wach's 21 and yes I used Boxrec to look that up, calling someone out on using Boxrec is that meant to be an insult, lol, try harder.
