Re: Who is next for Anthony Joshua?
Well that was brutal wasn't it. The old back leg won't get out from underneath me KO is as iconic as going down face first. No one tends to get up from those. Whatever shade people want to throw at this, and they will. Joshua has just steamrolled someone that pushed Tyson Fury all the way and looked very capable in doing so. Ngannou defends straight punches like George Clooney in O Brother where art thou. Joshua's extra firepower ploughed straight through the glaring hole that Fury couldn't. Regardless of how well Fury was or wasn't prepared for Ngannou, Ngannou looked like he belonged in there. He looked out of his depth tonight. I don't like the word exposed in boxing parlance. But this was exposed.
This doesn't automatically mean that he's going to beat the Fury Usyk winner of course. I think he's in a far better place to do so though.
