Anthony "HYPE" Joshua won't make it outside UK

Anthony Joshua has to be the most manufactured and protected fighter in boxing.

Is best win is against a 41 year old Wladimir Klitschko

I just watched a highlight reel of all twenty one of his knockouts and the first 18 guys in there nobody ever heard of before

Okay Kevin Johnson and Carlos Takam and Joseph Parker

Surely you don't count Charles Martin?

Really poor competition. I mean really poor and had his record padded like the gossamer and fluffy padding under the rear end of an 18th century French princess

He might be something in his own little Arena but the moment he steps out of that and tries to fight abroad you will see who he really is and that is a really overhyped and manufactured and protected fighter.

You could say the same for Tyson Fury.

The Whyte win is decent. Parker was an unbeaten title holder.

Nothing special, but the whole division is pretty lacking.

If AJ is a hype job wtf is Wilder then??

AJ, Fury and Wilder all have 1 marquee win. No one has separated themselves from the pack as yet.

Brock I have to assume you're joking?

well no I did a very careful analysis I'm not exactly a Howard Cosell or a Bernie Madoff or whoever the heck the British guys are but I know a thing or two about boxing and I watch that highlight reel for about 1 hour today over and over and over and Anthony Joshua has very poor flexibility he is an extremely rigid fighter and extremely upright and rigid fighter only slightly better than Frank Bruno in that regard and he is going to get sparked the minute somebody in there is a little bit more snakey and oily and flexible and unorthodox like it just like a guy like Wilder.

I mean seriously Mike Tyson would spark Anthony Joshua in about 2 rounds

Another bloody wind up from someone with too much time on his hands, go out and have a megaburger with double fries or something.

Nah AJ takes that tat from Mike's face, like a trophy.

oh so you're talking about the Mike Tyson who is well into the Twilight of his career when he got that ridiculous tattoo on his eye. I'm talking about the Mike Tyson from 1985 to 1989 that nobody could touch

Oh you mean prime Tyson? Sorry wasn't stated so went with the present 😉

1987 Tyson..... AJ would be ~rocked~ like a fucking sailboat in a typhoon

I hope everyone will forgive AJ for the last year of nonsense when he eventually fights Wilder. All that matters is the fights. When we get them we should let the rest go

True.

I agree with Brock. He is Amir Khan without the fun style or funny way with a phrase. All business and milking the stadiums for what he can get. His biggest win is life and death with a 41 year old who has always been chinny and safety first. It will be very amusing when Wilder batters him down. Unless someone gets there first of course. Wilder won't let him off the hook. He is awkward, odd and is athletic and can let his hands go. Wlad couldn't as he had stamina issues even in his 20's.
