Lmao @ 41-year old Klischko knocking AJ out.

When was the last time Vlad Klischko knocked out anyone taller than 6'4 with almost the same reach reach as him? I'm sure you know Vlad and Vitale are two different Klischkos, no? Better don't waste your money on that type of bet because it's never going to happen.

Both have almost the same reach and height. Both had great amateur careers with Olympics medals...so they can both box. However, AJ has the advantage in age, agility, power, hunger, and raw strength - while Vlad has experience to his advantage.

Don't expect AJ to fight him the same way he fought Dillian Whyte due to emotions and wanting to shut the guy up. He's going to box him, take away the highly effective jabs, and wear him down with speed and pot shots. The 41-year old wouldn't be able to deal with what's going to hit him once it's past the 6th round. If Klischko is going to have a chance - he has to do it from round 1-3. After that, his chin and old legs would have to come up big. Put your money on AJ...he's in his best shape ever and he's hungry.


Good analysis bruv.

Truth is the match can go either way.

Klitschko really wants the win badly so that he can retire from boxing on a high.

[quote author=ednut1 post=56038697] wrong. klitschos advantage is height and reach. punching smaller guys from afar. AJ is tall and fast. Klitscho going down bro[/quotEE]Exactly why Fury was able to beat him...most Klitschko's fights were against shorter Opponents hence he was able to knock out SP

It's one thing to want it badly so as to leave on a high. However, it's another thing for the body to have what it takes to deliver due to age. And he doesn't have his brother, Vitali's punching power.

Look at his last three fights with half-decent heavyweight boxers: Fury, Povetkin, and Jennings. He lost to Fury because he couldn't use the height/reach advantage for his effective jabs, while he won via UD against both Povetkin and Jennings who're 6'2 and 6'3 respectively. And none of the three has AJ's speed, power, and amateur pedigree.

Picture what Mike Tyson did to Larry Holmes...that's what's gonna happen tonight. Just give me props when it happens lol.

I want Joshua to win but something tells me Klitschko still has one last great day to offer.

But who has update about the money involved? Did they get close to the Mayweather vs Pachiao fight?

He has gone past the 6th round twice in his career. He knocked out both Dillian Whyte and Dominic Breazeale in the 7th round. And when you look at both fights, he boxed for most of the rounds: Dillian (round 3-7 after he got rocked by a wild swing for being careless) and Breazeale (from round 1-7).

Have you seen the guy train and what he does? He'll never run out of gas due to his training style and what he does. You can't be fitter than that guy.

I honestly do not see AJ winning this fight.

Klischko has the advantage of experience over him.

It's too early in his career to take on such an experienced and much older fighter. I think he's doing this fight solely for the paycheck.

For AJ, it's £16million in earnings just from one night.

My prediction : AJ is knocked out in the 10th round and Klischko retires from professional boxing after this.
Well we can't say who exactly will win. Klitschko lost in his own backyard to Tyson fury and fury was the same age with little experience as AJ. Yes, this is going to be the biggest match of Joshua's life. To fight klitschko no be beans ask Samuel Peters..

BTW klitschko ain't retiring after this match because he has a rematch with fury.

I had a bet with someone that aj will KO vlad in 5 rounds tonight.

The fight is more or less a passing of touch like someone said on this forum. Ending of klitsco era and the begining of Anthony joshua's.

His mum is always scared whenever he's in ring. So it's understandable why she was banned from watching him to save her the stress/duress that may come with it. At the end of the day, she's proud of what her son has achieved and how he had been able to turn his life around from being caught up in the street - to boxing - with help of his brother, (G)benga whose boxing career has hit a snag. He's also her only son (he has half-brothers...his dad has about 8-10 kids).

You just have to root for him. Heavyweight boxing has been dud for over a decade since Lennox Lewis retired. And AJ has brought excitement back to the division. Heck, you can even make an argument that boxing hasn't been that interesting since Mayweather retired. And if AJ and all the other heavyweight prospects like Joseph Parker and Deontay Wilder can bring the excitement back, since that's historically the most interesting division in boxing - he deserves all the support in the world. Then you've Lawrence Okolie who's still green but on the come-up as well in the cruiser weight division and he should also move to heavyweight if he can clean out that division because he has always been a big kid and he should be too big for that division in 4-5 years.

Anthony Joshua should capitalise on his age, he should be precise and not all out in attack. This is same mistake Samuel Peter did and got him beaten.

He is of Nigerian descent. I hope the beating of Samuel Peters is not his portion

Joshua v Wladimir Klitschko: WBA heavyweight Fight sat 29th April 2017




Boxing returns to Wembley Stadium connected by EE in 2017 for a heavyweight bout of titanic proportions.

On Saturday 29 April 2017 Anthony Joshua will face Wladimir Klitschko under the arch for the IBF, IBO and WBA Super Heavyweight Championships of the world.

It will be the second time in three years Matchroom Boxing have partnered with the national stadium to bring boxing to an enormous stadium audience.

In 2014 a packed house saw Carl Froch knock out George Groves in a highly anticipated rematch.

Joshua was the opening fight of that memorable night as he despatched Matt Legg inside a mere 86 seconds.

No doubt the current IBF World Heavyweight Champion would love a repeat of that performance on 29 April!
