Chukzyfcb: Yes. He's the real deal - support the real. The heavyweight division has never seen anyone with his type of physique and IQ combined. They always have one of the two - Frank Bruno for the former cos Bruno had zero IQ, and Ali for the latter cos Ali had a very high boxing IQ. He can also box and he packs a lot of power in his right hand. Even his jabs. At this stage of his career, he has already beaten more quality opponents than Mike Tyson did when he was coming up. If he can make the perfect transition and improve, then he won't have a problem being an all time great. Mike Tyson for example never made that transition and the only half-decent opponent he beat was Michael Spinks (40 year-old Larry Holmes doesn't count). And he lost to all the quality and decent boxers he faced: Lennox Lewis, Holyfield Twice, and Buster Douglas. That's why no serious boxing head will ever put Mike Tyson on the top-10 greatest heavyweight boxers ever. Once you pick the trio of Ali, Frazier, and Foreman...the duo of Lennox Lewis and Evander Holyfield...and old school champions like, Jack Johnson and Joe Louis. Then a prime Larry Holmes (you can also throw Sonny Liston, Rocky et al around). You'll see why Mike Tyson was all about excitement than actual boxing skills and who he fought. And I'm a big Mike Tyson fan. Anthony Joshua can surpass that in achievements. Support the real deal. 1 Like 1 Share |

SirShymexx: Luis Ortiz is a beast. I would like to see AJ fight Ortiz later this year. I also think Wilder is overrated, he only has power. If Wilder can even get past Povetkin, I'd like to see AJ end Wilder's hype train. |

Ritchiee: Another monkey African: Nigerian-born = born in Nigeria --------------------To be Nigerian-born means that the person is by BIRTH a Nigerian = place of birth!!! Nigerian-descent = of Nigerian ancestry or parentage. --------------the origin or background of a person in terms of family or nationality. synonyms: ancestry, parentage, ancestors, family... He is British-born What a mumu like you should say is, British-Nigerian or British of Nigerian descent. 1 Like 1 Share |

Nigerians are claiming him but refused to claim Adegbola the butcher [/quote] No, we claim them too.They are still yorubas but we did not support what they did.., On the afternoon of 22 May 2013, a British Army soldier, Fusilier Lee Rigby of the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, was attacked and killed by Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale near the Royal Artillery Barracks in Woolwich, southeast London. Rigby was off duty and walking along Wellington Street when he was attacked.[9] Adebolajo and Adebowale ran him down with a car, then used knives and a cleaver to stab and hack him to death.The men dragged Rigby's body into the road and remained at the scene until police arrived. They told passers-by that they had killed a soldier to avenge the killing of Muslims by the British armed forces. Unarmed police arrived at the scene nine minutes after an emergency call was received and set up a cordon. Armed police officers arrived five minutes later. The assailants, armed with a cleaver and brandishing a gun, charged at the police, who fired shots that wounded them both. They were apprehended and taken to separate hospitals. Adebolajo and Adebowale are British of Nigerian descent, were raised as Christians, and converted to Islam. On 19 December 2013, both of the attackers were found guilty of Rigby's murder. On 26 February 2014, they were sentenced to life imprisonment, with Adebolajo given a whole life order and Adebowale ordered to serve at least 45 years. The attack was condemned by political and Muslim leaders in the United Kingdom and in the international press. |

dejavski: Who are you? Are you into boxing too? This is another Nigerian..a citizen of Britain...making us proud too: Abubaker "Bob" Ajisafe (born 13 April 1985) is a British professional boxer. He is the current Commonwealth light-heavyweight champion, having previously held the British and English light-heavyweight titles. Professional career[edit]Born in Nottingham and now based in Leeds, Ajisafe turned professional in 2007 after a successful amateur career, winning his first six fights. In 2009 he competed in the Prizefighter tournament, losing in the quarter-final to Carl Dilks. Wins over Ovill McKenzie and Phil Goodwin in 2009 set him up for a challenge for Tony Bellew's Commonwealth title in September 2010; Bellew took a unanimous points decision despite being knocked down in the fourth round. Ajisafe's next fight was against Darren Stubbs in July 2011 for the vacant English light-heavyweight title, Ajisafe winning after a cut above Stubbs' eye forced a stoppage. He successfully defended the title against Travis Dickinson in December 2012. In March 2014 he met Dean Francis for the vacant British light-heavyweight title, taking a unanimous points decision. He subsequently beat Leon Senior and in November 2014 beat Matty Clarkson to win the MaxiNutrition Knockout Trophy. In January 2015, Commonwealth champion Enzo Maccarinelli was ordered to make a mandatory defence of his title against Ajisafe. |
