Just saw the post fight American review by Tim Bradley and Andre Ward, very interesting that neither of them think Joshua has a chance of beating Fury.
Fury really has people convinced he is the man.
Calling Jimanuel Boogustus "another hard done by black boy" is being racist, trying to justify the murders by a white supremacist in New Zealand is another.
Beanz exposed you numerous times which is why you try and ban him.
If you want the subject closed don't start making stuff up in your bigoted head.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
I thought Joshua looked pretty good after 12 months out of the ring.
Pulev was just about an identikit perfect opponent for him. Smaller, older, a decent but unexceptional technician, carrying very little power in his punches ... but brave and with an excellent chin.
Joshua clearly is, and always has been, and excellent trainer. He looked a lot more fluid than I've seen him before, though some of the exchanges were messy.We all know he can punch, and his signature blow is turning out to be the uppercut, which he uses very well. His chin held up OK, though Pulev didn't really land any properly forceful blows.
Great workout for Joshua, he could try stuff out, mix up his tactics, satisfy himself that his stamina and chin were OK, all while being confident that Pulev wasn't a big hitter.
All in all, a good night's work for him.
If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?
I thought it was a really good performance. Dominant front hand, powerful backhand. Strong, fluid, good movement. As X said perfect opponent for him to put things in to practice and try things out.
I’ve always thought Joshua beats Fury. Nothings changed on that front. Great win battering Wilder no doubting that. But Joshuas a far better fighter than Wilder and every bit as powerful.
I quite liked his refusal to talk about Fury. How many times can someone say yes I want the fight? It gets just as boring for them I’m sure. The amount of people that have taken Fury’s Instagram post as cast iron proof that he wants the fight is slightly worrying. Similarly Joshua saying I can’t be fucked talking about it is proof he doesn’t want it. Madness.
When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough

Josh can bang anyone out if he lands clean but I'd still lean towards Fury to toy with him every single round for the reasons above.
90% of the advantages are massively with Fury here let's get it right.
I wouldn't even mind a £200 baseline cheapo ticket price hike if it meant this stayed where it should in London at Wembley.
I'd happily pay that just to sit with binoculars with 90k other boisterous pissed up fans bring some real noise.
Great match up of styles and the rematch clause could easily turn into a Trilogy 😎
