I reckon Joshua would be gassed if that went on any longer, it was a bit of a hail mary, seen it last time with Klitschko too starts solid, tires around round 5/6 takes a couple of rounds off, recovers a bit then goes for an attack and ends up finishing it, obviously it's worked well for him, but I'm very interested to see what Joshua looks like on the other side of this after his second wind has faded again.

 

anyway I still doubt takam would have had enough to finish him, but aj would have certainly been very vulnerable, and obviously sky/matchroom can't allow that.

 

I might be overly skeptical but even the extra minute or so the ref had takam seeing the doc was for Joshua's benefit, either hoping the doc stops it or to give Joshua a bit longer to catch his breath.

That’s exactly the way I seen it all aswell.

I think that’s a bit harsh. He’s had 20 fights and is already a multiple world champion as well as an Olympic gold medalist.

 

It’s much more than any of us will ever achieve so you have to respect it.

 

He’s over-hyped though, definitely, and I think he’s letting it get to his head a bit as well.

 

Its not the least bit harsh, its because the division is shit. If there was any competition around he'd be an also ran.
 
As for the "more than any of us will achieve", you could apply that thinking to any one of the f**tballers who regularly get given down the banks on the FF.

He will dominate it like Klitschko did. Fat cunts don't want to box these days.... unless you fancy it?

Got beat twice in the olympics and done well from there. Good luck to him beating bums.who has he beat?

Well who is there to beat?

 

Tyson Fury can fight, but he has personal issues and is indisposed.

 

Ortiz and Povetkin are decent, but juiced to the gills.

 

The other title holders are Wilder and Parker; both shit and both being lined up for the next 7 months.

I reckon Wilder stops him. I don't see what all the fuss is about.

The same Wilder Eric Molina rocked when they fought? Joshua has too much power for Wilder. Gotta laugh you call Joshua a Frank Bruno on Steroids, then big up Wilder. Who has Wilder actually fought.. He's basically done a Billy joe saunders with his belt. Keeps running from the big fights. He's even pricing himself out of a fight with Dillon Whyte because hes scared.

 

If Molina can rock Wilder, then Joshua will knock his bloody head off. Joshua has shown he can get knocked down and get up again. I think Wilder takes one big hit from Joshua he stays down counting stars.

Yeah, the same Wilder that got rocked by Eric Molina. All heavyweights get rocked. Joshua got rocked by Whyte and was scrambling on the floor against Wlad.  I say he's Frank Bruno on steroids, not really as an insult, more that he looks like Frank Bruno on steroids when he fights. It's an accurate description. He's not as one dimensional as Frank, but he is cumbersome and static.

 

I think Wilder beats him. Obviously Wilder doesn't have the better resume but what resume did Sor Rungvisai have when he beat Gonzalez? Some fighters are just tailor-made for others. You might be right. He might take Wilders head off with the first big shot he lands. I just personally think Wilder has his number.
