    Yeah, they take everyone for idiots, even though everyone knows there's no mountains in Wembley. Typical Joshua bullshit.

    Height and reach and far better skills and movement are going to do it for Fury. Joshua has the edge with power but Fury has the chin and his powder puff punches fucked Wilder up in no time. I think he'll fight the same way against Joshua that he did against Wilder.

    Very possibly Kirkland - Joshua is so used to controlling the centre of the ring, stalking and pressing his opponent and therefore controlling the distance in which the fight takes place. I have absolutely no idea how well Joshua can fight on the back foot.

    Its how Fury surprised Wilder, and itbwas genius to be honest. However, having seen that fight, I bet Joshua will be prepared for it?

    You can prepare for it but when you've got a six foot nine inch pikey in front of you that you can't land cleanly on and he's bashing you with a jab you can't get out of the way of, body shots, you name it, it's a different matter.

    Fair question though... and I'll be the only one to probably ask it. Memories of Fury-Wlad are still fresh on my mind. Worst HW title fight in boxing history, in which Fury used head games to completely psyche out Wlad and in the fight itself I've seen elementary school dustups with more punches thrown than that fight. Wlad was scared of Fury... and it seemed like viceversa. Fury's resume isn't all that long and impressive, and we're making a hell of a lot of assumptions off of two fights with someone that everyone spent a hell of a lot of time dissing as to his lack of boxing ability. Joshua is presumably quite a bit the better boxer between himself and Wilder so.....

    You see my point. Is Fury really going to press the issue? Is he going to move Joshua back and engage? Wilder was fairly simple to outbox. He has a huge right hand, but the rest of the toolbox is rather empty. Joshua isn't Otto, or Pianeta, or Schwartz... or any of those other bums Fury has faced in between his fights with Wilder and back when he fought Wlad. Joshua can box AND he can punch.

    Question is: Which Fury will show up for Joshua? "Wilder" Fury? Or "Wlad" Fury?

    And Joshua can lose against a taller, faster, heavier better fighter, easy money for Fury, just has to negotiate the right mix so he gets one wilder and two joshuas before retiring and saying fuck U to all the experts.

    The same Fury that had difficulty with Otto?

    AJ is just as chinny as Fury.

    AJ is the best boxer and fighter that Fury has ever fought.

    We don’t know what fights Fury legitimately won in his career due to the 2 year ban for PEDS.

    Same with Mosley and many other cheaters.

    So we can let Fury of the hook but we can’t let Canelo?
