Re: Boxing/MMA

Brilliant stuff but it had to go longer, he's literally taken nothing away from that fight. It's another early stoppage and big questions are still going to exist. He has the power but does he have a chin? does he have the 12 round stamina? Thankfully Charles Martin had absolutely nothing about him. Looked beaten from the first bell.

Massive ceiling, don't waste it on early fights with Haye or Wilder, he doesn't need those fights. I'm sick of seeing tragedy with upcoming British prospects, neither of them are worth the risk. He's going to be around a lot longer after they're gone. Get him a 12 round bash about otherwise that chin will crumble when someone hits it.

So, staying away from big punchers, Fury is my logical choice. I think that could be a knockout win for AJ or a points win for Fury.. He could drag AJ out into uncharted waters. I do think he could knockout anyone including Haye and Wilder but he just could not take the onslaught those fighters would throw back just now. Whyte rocked him and he went through this barely taking a shot again. What happens if Haye or Wilder land right hands? a relatively untested shaky chin can just fall away. Haye and Wilder are two fighters that can knock anyone out if they land. Haye is a bit more dangerous because he's a lot more quicker. Wilder is a terrible boxer, he truly is dire and I think he'll get his at some point but he's a knockout pony, he has that one punch ending in him.

So for me, Fury if they're hell bent on pushing the big money fights. Stay away from Haye, he'll be long gone by the time Joshua can comfortably bang with him. Wilder though, a few more fights away? desperately needs a good slugging bout in him though.

Either way, forget about Lennox Lewis, this guy can be better.
