Absolutely, especially under that pressure.
He's well groomed, the wheels of the British boxing industry are turning with this one.
Definitely.

Can't imagine the hype around him fighting a Fury. I hope Fury fights first though comimg straight in after this lay off would be a huge mistake.

He's not and he rolled back the years tonight. Was light on his feet, threw plenty, but still ' couldn't pull the trigger' when the time came.
He's had an entire career of looking like he can knock out anyone he wants, but mysteriously not doing it

Fury was far more mobile than Joshua was.

Wlad should call it a day, he's in his forties now and let's face it Hemingway would struggle to write a better swansong for a proud old champ than that. What better way to say goodbye to a sport that you have graced for 2 decades?

Joshua fvcks up Fury. Said it before and today doesn't change my mind at all. Probably makes me more certain.

Joshua hardly looked unbeatable.

I don't think that Wilder would have lost too much confidence after tonight's fight.

Fury will be a lot more harder to land on though. On the flipside though, Fury isnt really a puncher and Joshua might be able to walk through his punches.

Exactly my point. On the other hand, Wilder should fancy his chances of one-punch ko; Joshua has proved to have a decent chin but is still very vulnerable..

Agreed, walking away after a memorable and epic battle against the new star of the show is as good a time as any to walk away.

It also makes Haye — at 6'1" or so in reality — look better.

Wilder gets destroyed by Joshua and Fury beats him when he loses 5 stone

Wilder is the most over rated fighter in the world

Yeah. For me, its either Fury outboxes Joshua over 12 or Joshua walks through Fury's arsenal.

I agree.
What makes you (both) so sure ?
Fury is bigger, more experienced and better fundamentals.
Josh has a puncher's chance against anyone ever, but Fury (IF fit) must start favourite.
Can't wait :box:

Wilder is probably underrated at this point.

People say he is rubbish left, right and centre.
