He looked to me to be another Bruno who will struggle with speed and movement but can build up a nice record flattening bums. I think he goes further than Price though. Much further!

I watched that fight live,could not believe Joshua got that decision,he was totally outboxed
all night long,i was with a group of friends who are not real boxing fans,they were as surprised
as me.

Joshua should never have won that gold. He should give that back like the roy jones scenario.

I wish him success but he was completely outboxed and its a shame as it changes peoples paths and futures.
