Is it just me or does Anthony Joshua have a very loserish fanbase?

The thing is to be an elite sportsman in boxing, you have to beat real proper champions that had a real reign. AJ hasn’t.

He’s just a belt collector picking them up in easier fights, a bit like Ricky Burns or something.

Fury is the one that took them from recognised champs.

So Fury is not a real champion because he's defended 0 times. Meanwhile Joshua has many times which would make him a real champion. Thanks.

Big deal, he defended belts that he never took from any long reigning champ, Generally defending them against 40-year-olds and lost them once to a fat bum

In the past 5 years, since 2016, Joshua has only fought 2 fighters under the age of about 37 and lost to one of them lol. They cherry picker old men.

It's your definition of a real champion. By your own definition Fury isn't and Joshua is. You just made out title defences are important by having a reign but you're now trying to downplay the importance of them. You want to flip flop and change the standard when it suits you. Doesn't work like that, that makes you a hypocrite.

I just want to know who's the best between Josh and fury not gossip about fans or boxers personality

Just laughing at the energy that people are putting into this.

He does indeed, this is a picture of the average Anthony Joshua fan aka Robbie Barrett

Wow, I dont think a picture could better encapsulate what I'm talking about

For some reason, people are su****ious of a guy who has made becoming 'Undisputed' his life's work and has an appeal that isn't based on trash talking or flashing money.

Basically, he's just a proper sportsman.

For me, you can keep your Wilders and your Furys. I'll support the elite sportsman.

And I'll never understand how people could dislike him so much. But maybe it's just me.

Problem is this is talk. We've heard him talk about undisputed for years and have yet to see it materialise. Sorry, but I just dislike talkers in general. I feel Joshua was dead serious about undisputed it would've happened already. This is how I know you're full of ****, they had a chance to aim fro undisputed when Wilder was champion back in 2018. They then offered him a ****ing 12.5m flat fee. Is that really the behaviour of a guy who wants to be undisputed? It isn't.

Problem is, the only other mainstream fighters who have sat upon a similar stature in recent years is maybe Canelo and McGregor. The issue there is, both fighters have taken a whole bunch of HoF famer opponents...with Joshua, he peaked at Wlad four years ago, but has gone onto to do nothing of significance since. I just feel that if this was the case for either Canelo or McGregor, their audience would have waned. In fact, for the latter mentioned, that is exactly what has happened.

Again, lets for arguments sake say Fury and Wilder were both ducking. Why exactly am I still being bombarded by idiots on social media about how wonderful this all is? Surely we should be demanding better opponents. If Joshua had continued to up the ante the way someone like Canelo does then it would make sense. But It just seems very engineered to me.

When you say narcissistic clause like “I’m a big guy" (It's the internet, no one cares if you're a big guy or a midget). That’s enough to show your own insecurities. Is that why you can't stand the guy cos you wished you're the "big guy" that he's?

Since I’ve been here, I noticed you mostly post on Joshua threads to hate on the guy.

So you might just be as "loserish" as those you're accusing.

I doubt you're older than 12 based on the amount of nonsense you spam the forum with.

2018 Wilder was barely a name. $12.5M represented an overpayment for his title. The offer then increased to a $15M guarantee and 65/35 split. You're talking about nearly ten times what he'd earned previously, unless you count his win in court against Povetkin.

In comparison a fat Fury for less money was jumped on.

He's the one who has gone out and got the belts. Made good offers for the remaining belt. Of course he's chasing Undisputed. And he's the only one.

So its about the money then after all?
