Attempting to beat Anthony Joshua is a more stylistically difficult fight for Tyson Fury, than Oleksandr Uysk 'there is a reason why many years ago? Tyson Fury avoided Anthony Joshua, and instead chose to fight Deontay Wilder. Who was at that time deemed the more stylistically easier fight to win'.
Note: Anthony Joshua is a proven elite level super heavyweight fighter 'and in my opinion? The only heavyweight of this era, who has both elite level power, and elite level boxing ability. No other heavyweight of this era, has those attributes in combination'.
Oleksandr Uysk is a great boxer skill for skill 'but he does not have elite level punching power'.
Deontay Wilder has elite level punching power 'but he is not technically skill for skill an elite level boxer'.
Anthony Joshua when you analyse him as a fighter 'at his peak and best, is potentially a more complete fighter than Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Uysk'.
The challenge for Anthony Joshua is bringing all those attributes together on fight night 'and executing a performance'.
But when he does? You have all seen what happens 'Anthony Joshua has shared three common opponents with Tyson Fury. And those opponents are, Wladimir Kiltschko, Otto Wallin, and Francis Ngannou'.
Each time, Anthony Joshua has outperformed Tyson Fury 'and beat all of those common opponents either more impressively or conclusively'. Why? Because when Anthony Joshua unleashes his maximum potentially he is a more destructive and better fighter than Tyson Fury'.
Francis Ngannou beat Tyson Fury over 10 rounds 'Anthony Joshua obliterated Ngannou inside 2 rounds'.
Otto Wallin busted up Tyson Fury real good, and pushed him right to the line 'Joshua beat up and forced a stoppage vs. Wallin inside 5 rounds'.
Tyson Fury beat Wladimir Kiltschko in an underwhelming 12 round fight, great win historically but the action of the fight has been completely overrated '17 months later it was Anthony Joshua who stepped up, and beat Wladimir Kiltschko in the greatest heavyweight title fight of the past 25 years. Knocking him out and forcing him to retire'.
To conclude: When and if both Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua fight 'I am strongly backing Joshua to win by knockout or stoppage'.
I still would not be surprised if Tyson Fury manufactures a way to get out of this fight 'all the signs are already there, if? Joshua was such an easy fight, why is he so serious all of the sudden? Tyson Fury is apprehensive' of Anthony Joshua'.
I think Tyson Fury has been forced into this fight via public pressure 'he has not world titles anymore to use to avoid Anthony Joshua. Because that is all he done with his WBC title'.
I would not rate it as the biggest British fight of all-times in terms of historical significance, but it is still a mega fight etc.

I don't think Joshua has a lot of Boxing ability really. Not as much as he has power. He's always had a leaky defense, but he's still powerful and can Crack with both hands and that alone takes you far. No question he hits harder than Fury, but can he land as often as Fury?

They just want to get Fury v Joshua over the line while they can.

- Nobody but Turki would want Blubber vs Joshua.
AJ has made a vast fortune as a KO artist, but he never had a decent trainer not to mention his injuries in that massive traffic accident. Time for him and Usyk to retire and let the new studs sort out the titles. Hanging on past prime is a losing proposition almost every time.

In the amateur ranks, Anthony Joshua was a World Championship Silver Medallist and the 2012 Olympic Champion 'Tyson Fury's most notable, and best known achievement in the amateur ranks was being beaten by David Price. Which is no disrespect, because at the time of that fight? David Price was a highly ranked amateur fighter'.gilgamesh wrote: ↑03 Jun 2026, 16:40 I don't think Joshua has a lot of Boxing ability really. Not as much as he has power.

Note: Tyson Fury has been decked and beaten up at all levels in the professional ranks 'Anthony Joshua has only been beaten by World Champions, and decked by fighters of that calibre'.
Yes! He did have a terrible performance vs. Daniel Dubois 'in terms of making unforced errors and technical mistakes. But really in my opinion, that is the only fight where I can discredit his boxing ability'.
In the 24 rounds both Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua fought vs. Oleksandr Uysk 'Joshua from a statistical perspective, arguably performed better than Fury'.
The highest amount of punches Oleksandr Uysk was able to land on each fighter was 179 punches on Tyson Fury and 170 punches on Anthony Joshua 'But? In order to achieve this vs. Anthony Joshua he had to throw almost 300 more punches. Uysk threw over 700 + punches in his rematch vs. Joshua'.
So Oleksandr Uysk was throwing less punches vs. Tyson Fury 'but landing a higher amount as he was vs. Anthony Joshua. Those statistics suggest that Joshua is a far better boxer than many people want to give him credit for at top level'.
I don't think there is any evidence that Tyson Fury is a miles better boxer than Anthony Joshua 'that is why it is stylistically a very difficult fight for Fury. He does not have any of his so called advantages that he had vs. Oleksandr Usyk or Deontay Wilder. He does not outweighed Joshua by 40 to 60 pounds, and he is not the physically stronger fighter in terms of brute strength'.
Me personally I always believed that Oleksandr Uysk 'although he was outweighed by Fury, was still potentially the stronger fighter in terms of brute strength. And he was definitively the better athlete, which was why it was difficult for Fury to fight a big man style fight i.e. like the way Lennox Lewis, Wladimir Kiltscko and Vitali Kiltschko would do at their peak vs. classically physique Heavyweight fighters'.
Those are two attributes which Fury has relied on in his fights vs. Deontay Wilder and Oleksandr Uysk 'that dynamic does not exist in the fight vs. Anthony Joshua'.
To conclude: Anthony Joshua is a Super Heavyweight fighter 'with proven elite level power, and elite level boxing ability. If you go through his entire career, 90 to 95% of the fighters he has fought? Have been unable to win rounds vs. him consistently. Kiltschko, Ruiz I, Uysk, Dubois. Those are the only fighters who have been able to win round vs. Anthony Joshua'.
Joshua was severely concussed vs. Ruiz Junior I, and even Dubois 'and he was still able to win rounds, and stay in the fight'.
We have seen Tyson Fury get pushed right to the line at domestic level, European level, and World level time and time again 'but people want to overlook it''.
He was beaten by Francis Ngannou in a boxing match 'he was pushed to the line by Otto Wallin in a boxing match. He has been decked and beating up, at domestic, European and World level. Those are the facts'.
In my opinion Anthony Joshua has always been stylistically the most difficult fight for Tyson Fury at heavyweight during his career 'Tyson Fury and his team know this, that is why they are preparing with another fight before than collide with Anthony Joshua' etc.
