Sticky: Joshua v Breazeale

[Batman]

Question on the Bunce article, what is it with the rice?

Big Anthony Joshua should be back in the gym today throwing handfuls of rice in preparation for the day he fights a man that can move, avoid a punch and counter.

On Saturday night he would have needed a bag of rice to touch Fury, a sack of rice to get anywhere near Wladimir Klitschko

Is this some boxing term or is Buncey just talking out of his arse saying random words?

Youve never heard the term "he couldnt hit him with a handfull of rice"?

It means that Fury moves so much Joshua would struggle to hit him by throwing a handfull of rice which would obviously spread like shot from a shot gun.

....Gotta admit I've not heard that one before, there is another lad that I work with who is well into his boxing and he asked about the rice thing when I sent him the article as well

I dont know who said it but it was about Willie Pep. "You couldnt hit him on the ass with a handfull of rice".
