The Boxing Thread

Glad I stayed up for this now.

 

Think Wilder will fancy his chances of knocking Ruiz out.

 

Wilder booked a fight already though, Fury is still free.

Fury would outclass this guy after 8 pints and a kebab, could probably fight him at any point.

 

Remember AJ easily beating Fury ?

Yasssss. * AJ

 

Joshua wi the fake smile

 

AJ still trying to patronise him 'enjoy this moment,' I think he'd do him again.

 

Fury got lucky tonight

 

Watching the replays again there, he knocked the * out of him that last round, superb.

 

AJ can't box. Been outboxed numerous times. And Fury being the best boxer out there will clown him

 

Aw aye..

Think Hearn will have a rematch clause in the contract. Probably to fight over in England as well.

 

Fury would beat Joshua, I think Fury would fight him at any point but Joshua would never risk fighting him. (He might now he's lost so he has no charade that he's quality any more).

Thats where you have to say fair play to Wilder who was willing to fight him, Joshua would probably never fight wilder either, Joshua only seems to fight guys who are under 6ft 2 and not in great shape, guys he probably thinks are punch bags and that even though some of them are better boxers than him he's too tall and fit enough he can avoid being caught too much.

Problem for Joshua with Fury and Wilder is they're the same size as him, quicker than him and Fury is far better technically. Wilder isn't really average more a weird style but probably also slicker than Joshua.

 

Hopefully they never had the brass neck to include that and will be *.

Ruiz deserves the big pay days of Fury or Wilder now, he knocked * out of Joshua as well not like it was 1 lucky punch or Joshua picked up an injury, was a no excuses skelping.

Fury to beat Ruiz then fight Wilder next year for the big one as a decider would be perfect the they both retire and let Joshua fight all the dafties.

 

I'm sure @Bigbrute just said Wilder was avoiding Joshua, now you're saying it's AJ who was shiteing it from him?

 

Fair play to Ruiz. Incredible timing and counter punching.

 

He was a voluntary challenger, obviously there’s a rematch clause

 

Is this maybe more Joshua being lazy in his preparedness and underestimating Ruiz? When he came out he looked totally uninterested as if it was a foregone conclusion.

 

Why would Wilder have avoided Joshua though if he fought Fury, Fury is for sure the top heavyweight - if Wilder wasn't worried about facing him then he won't be worried about Joshua.

Joshua has struggled even against guys like Parker, Whyte and Ruiz and I think one or two toehrs who wouldn't get laying a glove on Fury. Even Klitchschko when he was I think 2 years older than when Fury beat him was comfortably outboxing Joshua but just never had the legs any more, the Klitschko of the Fury fight would likely have also beat Joshua.

Joshua would also likely struggle against that big slug Ortiz as Ortiz is probably the 2nd best technical boxer after Fury at that level and even though he's probably about 50 year old he'd catch Joshua for fun.

For me Joshua has never fought Fury, Wilder or even Ortiz as he probably thinks they'd beat him and if he loses he loses all his hype and a lot of money. As long as he has the brass neck to claim they are avoiding him he could continue to rake in the money from fighting all the other guys who just aren't that good but even still when watching him you can tell the other guys are often more skilled than Joshua.

 

Wilder was offered 100million for 3 fight deal, 2 of the fights being AJ. Said no.
Won't entertain discussions, literally won't discuss them.
He ducked AJ. Absolutley wanted no part of him.

 

Well it wasn't me who said Wilder was hiding, I was just wondering why AJ's not fought anyone decent apart from Klitschko.

I've not seen Fury fight anyone apart from Klitschko and he didn't overwhelm me with skills, in fact Klitschko rallied at the end of that fight and caused enough damage to make me think if he'd done it two rounds earlier Fury would have been *.

I'm not believing a 50 year old is beating Joshua.

Even though I loved Ruiz winning that I think AJ will be back stronger after the experience, he's had too many easy fights, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
