Anthony Joshua v Tyson Fury: Who would win?
Published:
It’s the question everyone’s asking. If Anthony Joshua andTyson Fury do eventually meet in the ring; who would win?
A meeting has been tentatively spoken of for years, but theevents of the last 12 months has made a potential heavyweight clash more likelythan ever.
Fury (30-0-1) is now at the top of his game after hisstunning victory over Deontay Wilder in Las Vegas in February.
AJ (23-1) is at a career crossroads after defeat to AndyRuiz Jr last June stunned the world. Though he responded to win the rematch inDecember, a fight with Fury might be Joshua’s best way back to the top.
As for the latest Anthony Joshua versus Tyson Fury odds, ourtraders make the ‘Gypsy King’ odds-on favourite at 1/2, such has beenFury’s remarkable return to glory.
That leaves Joshua as the 13/8 outsider. With a drawat 25s.
But the odds don’t paint the full picture.
Size-wise, Fury’s got three inches on AJ at 6ft 9in, whilehe’s also bringing an 85in reach to Joshua’s 82in.
Many will point to Joshua’s speed and movement, but Furyshowed in Vegas that he has upped his own game in that department.
And what about focus and preparation? Fury’s issues havebeen well documented in the past, while Joshua admitted he didn’t prepare aswell as he could before losing to Ruiz Jr in New York.
