Talk about learning on the job. This was his 19th fight. 19th! Learned more in 30 mins with Wlad than his previous eighteen. He proved his mettle and went from a boy (in fighting terms) to a man in front of everybody.
Thought he was done after the sixth. He didn't really seem hurt he just looked knackered. Less weights and more roadwork needed methinks. But he steadied himself, took a couple of rounds off, and then ended the fight. A mature rounds 6 - 11 considering he's basically a rookie.
Would look at either Pulev or Ortiz at the end of the year. Let Wilder face Parker, then have those two for all of the belts next summer. AJ wins that then hopefully Fury has sorted his shit out and you have an all british fight for the linear heavyweight championship.

Fury danced round him and barely took a shot. Joshua got floored and recovered to win by TKO - this is indisputable, so not sure how you've come to that conclusion that it would be easy.

Good post this - huge jump in company tonight and he certainly knew about it. Enjoyed it when Hearn was booed in the ring too!

Totally different fights though. This was a aj slugfest. Fury fought vlads fight and outsmarted him. If it becomes a slugfest Fury doesnt last 5 rounds. Fury didnt catch vlad once aj stunned him several times
Disagree with that like - I think mid 30's he would have dealt with him tonight. Fair play to Wlad though he lost nothing tonight and as always very respectful afterwards.

I just don't know how you can use ease in that sentence. Fury got nowhere near Wlad in the same way AJ did, it was a totally different fight. When you say ease, I presume you mean he wouldn't last a couple of rounds then? I'd love a wager on that.
There is zero chance fury goes to slug it with him man haway! He's not got remotely the KO power Wlad or AJ have. Tactics would be very similar to those he employed to win the belts.
If he gets caught then it's very possible it's Joshua who would win.

If Joshua lands he's in trouble. Can he land though?

Enjoyed it. Over the moon that Joshua won but feel a bit sorry for Klitscho, like watching rocky get older and thinking it's time to call it a day.
I'd rather see Aj fight wilder than fury, something has me thinking fury could fluke a win and I'd hate to see that as I can't stand the bloke

That is rubbish man. Fury's victory was miles more impressive and Wlad was almost 2 years younger as well.
The aim is to hit and not be hit!! Not stand there and go to war until someone drops.

The way aj came out at round 5 fury would have no answer for. Aj would dictate the tempo not fury

Not a hope in hell Fury could deal with AJ boxing like he did in round 5. I guess we'll soon find out, but not a chance I would put my mortgage on Fury winning. Presumably you would, being that he would 'win with ease'?
What?

I mean he just boxes his head off. I don't feel AJ has enough movement to even trouble fury.

Yet he put Wlad down three times?
Sorry mate, pressed reply to the wrong post.

If your that comfortable you don't need to take risks for the KO. Just win the rounds easily. AJ could have easily lost last night. Was on the brink TBH.

Exactly right mate but Joshua outboxed Vlad tonight and has more power and speed, theres every chance Fury gets hit.

There's not a chance Fury beats Joshua 'with ease'. He may beat him but no way would it be easy.
Doesn't matter anyway because there's no way that fat knacker is getting back in the ring again.

Don't think he outboxed him mind. Was getting his head jabbed off in many rounds. Also got put on his arse. WLAD couldn't get close to fury. Certainly did with AJ.
