Tyson is quite frankly a freak, the world has never seen a 6 foot 9 giant move like he does. I think he makes easy work of Joshua, his skill set is on another level to Anthony Joshua's.

Not to mention he has the genius that is Peter Fury in his corner, the man who came up with the masterplan that Tyson used to beat Wlad. And he executed it to perfection.

Don't for one second think that Tyson Fury can't also box on the inside and have a tear up, you look back over the years he's proved he can certainly stand toe to toe with a man. I'm fascinated to see what Joshua's team do with him, you come in built like that and you're going to be blowing after 3 rounds. (Like he was). They surely can't be happy to just rely on Joshua to catch every opponent he faces flush on the chin and stop them, you have to be ready for 12 rounds every time you get in there.

Fury beats Joshua for me, I thought that before saturday and now I'm even more convinced of it.
Fury got sat on his arse by Steve Cunningham ffs <laugh>

He admitted whilst in training camp last year that an unknown sparring partner had floored him 3 times as well.

His record is largely against bums, he's had one great fight when he out foxed Vlad when he was a shadow of the real fighter that we saw on Saturday night.

Joshua will spark him, that's assuming he gets his licence back and sheds about 7 stone lol.

Making a prime chisora quit on his stool is not an easy thing.

How did the Cunningham fight end? Oh yeahTyson knocked him out.

I think you're getting argro about Fury because he constantly pokes fun at Tony 'I've got the powwah' Bellew.

<laugh> Yeah he wasn't absolutely ****ed at the end of the 5th or anything, he was simply pacing himself...

How would it be for the good of boxing for a convicted drug dealer to beat the lineal heavyweight champion of the world?

Ah yes the recreational drug and PED user that was stripped of all his belts? Such a role model. Joshua has turned his life around and should serve as an inspiration to millions of kids that could yet make bad choices in their lives. Fury is a clown that's still making a fool of himself.

Fury is a smart and tricky fighter but he couldn't handle the power of Joshua, his only hope would be to avoid him and edge each round by tapping him with soft jabs, like he did with Vlad. If Joshua gets on the inside then Fury is done, especially now Joshua has shown he can take a punch, Vlad hit him harder than Fury ever could and he got back up.

At the end of the day Joshua is a more entertaining fighter and makes the heavy weight division worth watching again, Fury may be 'entertaining' for those immature enough to think costumes and casual homophobia/sexism is funny but I don't, I know who I'd rather have representing the sport.

The best thing about this is and should they meet is the natural taking of hero and villain roles. Sport is always at it's best with a rivalry - whether it's genuine or contrived - and you couldn't get much better than a seemingly wholesome (these days), well spoken, publicly well mannered Olympic hero up against a gypsy who shoots from the mouth without first engaging his brain and has upset vast swathes of the population with his ill considered views.

It's so perfect that it's almost contrived and broadcasters, media outlets, their respective camps and - indeed - both fighters - will be rubbing their hands in glee.

You're spot on here, it couldn't have been set up any better if it had been scripted.

Yes he did, by one of the most perfect overhand rights you will ever see, and he got up and knocked him out.

Just to confirm, had Joshua beaten anything but bums before saturday night? An out of shape, injured Dillian Whyte was his best win.

To say Fury beat a shadow of the fighter we saw on saturday is quite simply pathetic, he made him look like a shadow of that fighter, that's the top and bottom of it.

He will get his license back and he will shed 7 stone, like he has done a million times before.

Edit: And did you not know that he was joking when he said he got dropped in sparring 3 times? He did a video saying it was a wind up, keep up.

So you're saying that Vlad we saw at Wembley with that aggressive front foot style was the same taylors dummy that we saw hiding behind the jab for 12 crap rounds against Fury? Behave ffs.

He had issues away from the ring before that fight, his wife had severe PND, and I don't think he ever thought Fury was a serious challenger to him.

The man we saw on Saturday knew he was facing the biggest test of his career, a top drawer heavyweight who could damage him and end his career. He was incredibly well prepared, physically, tactically and mentally for that fight, and he put in a performance that I didn't think was possible, he was superb.

If you genuinely think that he was the same man when in the ring with Fury then you need to go give your head a wobble.

Fury's lost 7 stone a million times before? Ok mate x

Do you not realise that the reason why he fought like that against Fury was because he simply couldn't deal with the style and movement of Fury?

Klitschko doesn't throw the right hand unless he can land the jab, and Joshua doesn't move his head or his feet so Klitschko was able to get his right hand off.

If you believe issues away from the ring is one of the reasons he lost to Fury you're just as deluded as I thought.

If you believe that the fighter we saw on Saturday was as well prepared and focused for the Fury fight, then you're living on another planet pal.

Fury may never get the chance to get in the ring with Joshua, as he's currently a complete mess, minus a licence. If it ever does happen, then Joshua's speed, power and fierce combinations will completely wipe out Fury, and I'll happily have a wager with you come the time :)

You're making a fool of yourself here, its quite clear that Vlad was a completely different prospect on Saturday than when he fought Fury.

Fury did well in that fight but he was boxing a shadow of the man that took to the ring against Joshua.
