    AJ better wake the fuck up and fast.

    I always felt the short-punch style of Povetkin would cause problems but not 3 straight rounds of it.

    Joshua thinks he's the superheavyweight version of Floyd Mayweather but he's got nowhere near the speed, reflexes or talent.

    Better from Joshua, trying the check hook and Povetkin not getting as close as fast now.

    Michael Grant in his 1999 form would f*ck up Joshua.

    WTF?! Joshua down 3 rounds after 3 rounds? Looking slow and sloppy? Perhaps everyone here was right about him after all. Sad.

    Povetkin cut and Joshua took a lot of confidence from it. Not really sure how the cut happened. Much better round for AJ.

    Povetkin not finding the range and now he's coming in straight. Gave Josh that round

    To beat Povetkin, Joshua can't fight tentatively. He has to go in there and fuck him up with uppercuts

    yeah, but his chin and his cowardice betrayed him at the end. This would almost always happen in a fight between them. He wasnt more courageous nor his chin was better when he was younger

    Joshua figured out he can win by jabbing

    Joshua got hit in the back of the head but he bent over. Against a smaller opponent. Madness.

    It's obvious that the judges would do anything to have Joshua win.

    Ok back to refresh...refresh...refresh...

    Povetkins ineffectual chasing and leaping won't win the fight. Especially when his best work only won him 2 of the first 4 rounds.

    Joshua is blowing hard as usual. His stamina is dreadful. This has been a Povetkin round. Even if Joshua pulls this out (and he still probably does) he has looked fucking cack up to this point.

    Not only must Joshua win this fight, he has to win by KO...and not just by KO but by KTFO. Else he loses credibility big time

    Povetkin will get slower. Huck damn near took him out in their fight in the 12th.

    I honestly think Fury will batter Joshua

    From the sounds of what's happening so far in this fight (based on what y'all are saying), I'd pick Fury too (and Wilder).

    That right-handed swing and miss might just be the worst punch ever thrown by Joshua.

    Sly on the basis of what I have seen., AJ is losing handily but it's not that he's losing it's HOW he's contrived to lose the rounds he has lost.

    I think Andrew Golota would have fucked up Joshua by now.

    So perhaps Joshua is just a bodybuilder after all?
