Anthony Joshua: assessment
Re: Anthony Joshua: assessment
Alright, I have another question. Do you think he'll end up being as good or better than Wlad and Vitali? The reason I ask that is that the pair of them *more so Wlad* get a lot of stick for their fighting styles/ opponents but yet Wlad in particular holds 3 of the 4 belts on offer and has pretty much dominated everyone he's fought aside from the slip ups here and there.

I am interested to see how he deals with Darch especially in Wales I expect the crowd to give him some stick and boo.

All good signs currently both in the ring and out the ring. Not sure how far he will go until we sit him hit on the chin by a real contender. Hard to fault him currently.
If I were gambling on if he would be more successful than the klits, i'd have to say no. A lot will obviously depend on the talent pool of heavyweight fighters around to compete with.

So far going according to plan - he is a top lad - but we will not find out how good he really is until he is hit and can fight back!!columbo wrote:What are your thoughts on him? I think he's talented for sure but i'm still not convinced on this second coming of Lennox hyperbole. I think he has a very good jab, he can punch and he's got a good boxing brain *You kind of have to, to be a olympic gold medalist* but I still think his movement looks quite rigid/ stiff. I dont know if it's because he's carrying too much muscle or what. Anyway, I know there's a lot that really rate him so I wanted to hear the fellow forum members thoughts on him.
I think he made an excellent move going to Matchroom.

The lad lost two fights at the Olympics yet gets the gift and now has it made. At least Audey earned his medal.Spud wrote:So far going according to plan - he is a top lad - but we will not find out how good he really is until he is hit and can fight back!!columbo wrote:What are your thoughts on him?

I need to stop that pissing me off and get behind him though
