Who's walking out champ? I'm not up to speed on this fighter, is he anything or just another nobody for AJ to bang around the ring? The odds suggest he's ****ing useless. Looks physically built like Tyson Fury, but that doesn't mean he's crap. Gotta be worth a cheeky tenner at 12/1 surely? please log in to view this image
Anthony Joshua, UK Olympic Gold medalist 2012, IBF heavyweight champion of the world. Not sure who the other guy is
Looking at his record he's never lost but I haven't heard of any of his opponents or him for that matter, granted I'm a very casual boxing fan but you'd think at the age of 30 if he was much cop I'd have heard of him at least. Sounds like a patsy to me.
Breazedale lost every round last fight and was down, before his 42 year old journeyman opponent somehow managed to nearly bite his own tongue off. It's made for AJ to blast the guy out.
Toyed with him by all accounts then as soon as Breazeale landed one on Joshua's beak and drew blood, AJ stopped the playing and just come out to send the boy to sleep. Tough opponent, in terms of being able to take a hiding and stay on his feet but ultimately, I'd say he's finished now. Haye next maybe, for AJ. Haye is a joke of a boxer now, talking himself up like he's still a top fighter... I'd be surprised if AJ gives him that fight. I think Fury/Wlad next for AJ.
I disagree mate and believe that he is an excellent boxer. having said that, I also believe he is not a natural heavyweight and will always struggle with the really top boys at that level.
How can you judge that now after his exile? He's back for money and he's fought two guys who I'd fancy my chances with. He's in good shape still, but he should be tested properly first. Maybe Briggs will deal with him. He used to be a clever, quick cruiser weight, but not now IMOOC.
Just my opinion mate...I think he was and still could be the best at cruiserweight, but just comes up short against the very best heavyweights
We'll see, he certainly hasn't earned a shot at AJ anyway. I hope Haye fights Bellew to be honest but again, he hasn't earned that fight either.
He does look more like a heavyweight these days, but as you say, it will be interesting when he comes up against a worthy opponent.
