    So lets enjoy Joshua for what he is , a young athlete with lots of potential, maybe not the real deal but exciting to watch and humble with it.
    You say Tyson is out of shape. Do you mean he doesnt have a homoerotic sculpted body? He does a decent paced 12 rounds fine.

    On the Bayloric youtube channel Peter Fury said Tyson visited the gym to spar Johnson in prep for this fight as a favour to Johnson. He was 21 stone apparently and Johnson couldnt last 30 seconds with him so Peter told him to just go home as theres no point being there.

    Tyson may not give you a stiffy with his abs and muscular arms but he moves well and fluid and can fight a fast pace over 12. If thats not being in shape what is?

    He has a good engine but he isn't in top physical shape , no athlete carrys that much fat around the waist. He may fight at an even better pace if he lost some of the fat around his waist.

    Agreed he may be even better carrying less excess but as you just admitted, its undeniable hes one of the fittest heavies around today. Stiverne and Arreola didnt get any criticism for the blubber they carry and they are in fat worse shape than Tyson, even Pulev and Povetkin carry excess.

    Im almost certain that if a fighter can get Joshua past 4 rounds he will start to look very ordinary and will visibly tire.
