gnasher16 30,454 Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 (edited) It must have gone unnoticed that Wlad is a punched himself? No he,s not he,s what we used to call in the old days a box fighter.......punchers/sluggers are not concerned with scoring points they totally commit to getting the finish and rely on their punch to win the fight......just because a fighter hits hard doesnt make them a puncher/slugger.I was talking about him being a big hitter, when you say someone is a puncher most of the time you're on about their power. Wlad is a classic boxer/puncher. Exactly a box fighter go,s in the ring with a completely different mindset to a pure puncher.....a puncher/slugger is going to try to take you out and that was my point about Fury he has never faced a pure puncher......when i said it would be hilarious i meant in terms of the fact he ran and danced around Klitchsko a guy who is not even a puncher......i would imagine when in with a pure puncher he would literally run around the ring Edited May 3, 2017 by gnasher16 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MickC 1,825 Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 (edited) Trouble is there is not to many pure punchers about at Heavyweight,Joshua is certainly one and even though Wilder has a huge list of kos on his record he needs to windmill to generate power where as Joshua seems to have the knack of knocking people over with a variety of shots from varying distance and with both hands.Joshua and Fury has to happen even just to see how the fight pans out .

arcticgun 4,548 Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 (edited) Dillian Whyte will be chomping at the bit to get a shot at parker I reckon lol, Joshua would wipe him out in a couple of rounds based on what I just seen can see Bellew jumping at it too Hughie Fury squandered a great chance to win the title doubt he ever get as close again Edited May 6, 2017 by arcticgun 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
