Why does everyone hate Anthony Joshua so much? I get that he isn’t the best heavyweight boxer ever but people claim he’s a no skill fighter but he has an Olympic gold medal, a world championship, and beat Klitschko, a dominant force in boxing

“Joshua, not good at boxing, the only thing that he can do is just run around, he's not good at boxing.""

Joshua is big, 6′6″, with a long reach, 82 inches, strong, a powerfully built 237, with natural punching power.

Kevin Twomey said:

Why do people hate Nickelback so much? What makes them different from other popular bands like Linkin Park, Green Day, etc.? Is it just because they're Canadian or what?

Joshua, while a natural athlete, is not a natural or instinctive boxer

The Sun said it best when it wrote after the Ruiz rematch, with Joshua running for his life:

“he can’t box.”

Why do some men want to remain single despite the fact that many women want to have a romantic relationship with them?

Bernard Hopkins said once:

“it’s not how hard you punch – you’ve just gotta keep hitting that target and, sooner or later, the big bodybuilder [Joshua] will fall apart at the seams, like an old, cheap cushion, falling to bits, all the bits falling off it. And he runs out of ideas quite quickly as well, Joshua. He’s a one-trick pony.”

Joshua has solid fundamentals, with a good understanding of footwork, hand placement, movement, and mastery of all the punches.

Why do you think most harem anime and manga have lame male protagonists that would be considered losers and pathetic by most people?

“Usyk didn't beat (Joshua). He dominated him"

That was NEVER going to win him the fight.

“It’s going to be a left hook to the temple, and you’re going to see him doing a Bambi dance all over the ring. Have the guts to step up to the plate and get flattened, son!””

How do Greeks identify themselves in terms of civilization? Do they feel more connected to Western or Middle Eastern civilization and why?

And Joshua was not born with that instinctive boxing ability.

The other, Andy Ruiz, was the fattest challenger in all history.

Joshua has weaknesses. His chin is suspect, he has no ring sense, he is somewhat robotic, and he has been gunshy since Ruiz.

What is the most memorable thing that happened in your college days?

Joshua is huge and strong, but ponderous; he is even robotic

Tyson Fury said over and over Joshua is a highly limited one trick pony

Instead of playing to his strengths, his size, his obvious physical strength, solid right punching power, instead of forcing a master boxer to survive a mauling, Joshua instead tried to fight Usyk’s fight and outbox him.

If I only have a fire extinguisher to defend myself against some threat from people, should I spray them for max damage or just hit them with the fire extinguishers?

When Joshua was preparing to fight in America for the first time, did he face Deontay Wilder, to unite the belts?

One of them, Oleksandr Usyk, had two whole fights as a heavyweight, and had never faced, let alone beaten, a heavyweight contender - and he soundly beat Joshua not once, but twice.

Read that again.

Why do older people have a hard time using technology?

Roy Jones Jr., who called the Usyk fight, put it this way:

Andy Ruiz Jr. said after the rematch with Joshua:

He picked a fat man, Jerrell Miller, with limited experience. Miller failed a drug test, and Hearn picked another fat man, this one having never beaten a contender, “Fat Andy” Ruiz. Unfortunately for Hearn, the fat man could fight a little, and pounded his chiseled but ponderous champion at will.

Why does my 5-year-old daughter keep repeating the words 'they will come for us, they will find us and touch us'? I'm quite scared.

“if you get beat by a bum, you are a bum yourself.”

He lunges at feints, and lacks any vestige of counter punching skill

Wilder is not the only fighter the chinny Joshua has ducked. When Eddie Hearn claimed he had been trying to make Wilder and Fury fights, Fury responded:

What is your analysis of Walter White from Breaking Bad?

Then add in that Josh not only lost to Daniel DuBois, a fighter who got knocked out by human statue Joe Joyce, but Josh got knocked down 4 times…

He has no ring sense, no ability to adapt on the fly

In Joshua’s “comeback” fight after the Usyk losses he showed nothing

Why are people with Asperger syndrome unenthusiastic?

In the second Usyk fight, Joshua fought better in aggresively using his jab, bending his knees to give him more power in his punches, and attacked Usyk's body with body shots. In the ninth round, Joshua had Usyk on the ropes and in trouble.

The Sun said it best after Ruiz II:

That tendency to forget everything he has been taught and rush forward got him a good whipping form the fattest champ in history, and a second from the guy who got knocked out by Joe Joyce!

Is fellatio addictive?

Larry Holmes, who really was a fighter, was blunt about Joshua:

No one who loses their titles twice to two separate men who had never beaten a heavyweight contender in their careers before they beat Joshua, is a great fighter, and Joshua isn’t.

Anthony Joshua has almost all the physical attributes to be a great fighter, except one, and that one alone would keep him out of the top 10. But Mentally? That is another story.

Hello,hope y'all doin good, i came to Quora to share my strange story , a very weird one , a story when luck smiled at me ,maybe u will enjoy it , let's begin,have fun... A year ago ,I was a real porn addicted(btw I was 18) ,but never had sex before, I don't have a gf I didn't try to find one even ,always thinking to go to find a sex worker but then I just don't , everyday watching different bodies getting fucked and everyday enjoying. One day, I was watching porn, a big ass lady with big boobs ,just after seeing her the image of my female cousin poped in my mind, (let's introduce her : she's 35 years old , very big ass , nice boobs ,not very big but nice,always wearing tight clothes , she's divorced ) and I thought of me fucking her ,I never had sexual desires for her but now I do days went by and when I met her I was so horny ,I couldn't stay with the family cz my penis was clearly erected , I realized this is my first time I get horny for one of my family ,it not illegal in my country.well to make a long story short( if u want details just text me I will tell u 😊),I decided to give her signs that I want to fuck her,finally I decided to have sex and with my cousin , I thought it is the best beggining for me, i started touching her when I came across her in a narrow place , make her feel my hard cock when we hug , I thought it will hard and I will be ashamed but no , I felt nothing and she said nothing , probably she thought it was by mistake,anyways, I decided then to talk with her about sex, waited for her to be alone in a room and talk with her, I confessed everything about me watching porn and addicted..etc,she said it's normal and u are growing up and u must have sex,well at that time I was like whaaat????? Well I didn't control myself and asked her for sex ( horny like I Ve never been before) she said that she will think Abt it ,2 weeka went by then she called me ,telling that she reserved a room in a hotel and we meet tonight ,we met,and bruuhh, sex is great , I mean, I had to find a pirstitue ,what I was waiting for to have such a feeling ????, I will never forget that night, I started kissing her she was kissing hard ,she misses sex so bad , she sucked my dick and swallowed my semen ,I felt I'm in a dream , then when fucked ,her ass was very big and the anus was open ,didn't struggle to get my hard cock inside it , she was obviously missing sex , she was shouting ,fuck me yh fuck me , I go fast after every word until I cum , we did that 3 times , then we went to her pussy , using condoms I fucked her so hard the moans were higher , everything was perfect ,in the end I asked her to lick her body , licked pussy ,ass, boobs,then she sucked my cock until we sleeped ,all I know that she was dirty ,well before even having sex with her I knew she is an open minded woman , and a woman that looks that she donesnt know anything , but she knows everything, but never expected having sex with her ,well she was horny and that helped...but no one of us regretted that sex ever.. We still have sex from time to time ,and I started having sex with sex workers , joining threesomes..etc If u want pics of her text me.

“Joshua isn't a fighter, he didn't even look like a boxer.”

Roy Jones said:

To put it simply, as Andy Ruiz said:

“Who ever said Joshua can box? He should be beating this guy, he is obviously so much bigger and stronger, but he is also clumsy and can’t box! What a joke? People compared this guy to Muhammad Ali and Lennox Lewis? Please!”

Joshua also showed his weaknesses yet again against Dubois

His chin alone would put him back in the all time ranks, and that is if he had ring smarts to compensate for it.

Lennox Lewis said:

CREDIT PICTURE NEW YORK TIMES

Josh seems, almost all the time, to be a nice guy and a good ambassador for the sport.

There is a good reason Joshua lost to two guys who had never beaten a heavyweight contender

Fury also noted Joshua inability to adapt in the ring offsetting his strength and power, saying:

But in the end, the smaller man was the better fighter. As he tired, Joshua stopped bending over and stopped his aggressive jabbing - and he lost again.

Joshua has a solid jab, and a good, hard, straight right hand, but that’s it

Against Ruiz, whose reach is 8 inches less than Joshua’s, instead of staying outside, as he did in the rematch, and running lustily for his life, Joshua stooped down, putting himself in Ruiz’s range and slugged it out with a guy who had far faster hands and a better chin.

Neither of them had ever beaten a heavyweight contender before they upset Joshua.

Against unranked Jermaine Franklin, Joshua went the distance, and showed he remains skittish about engaging, a result of the Ruiz beating.

Jack Blackburn, Crown Prince of Trainers, once said:

“that guy could learn some more. He could be taught some more stuff."

Fury also said that he has been offering to fight Joshua for the last five years. He claimed that Joshua’s promoter has been speaking a lot of “hot air.”

“No fighter is perfect. A good trainer finds his fighter’s weaknesses, and devises ways to defend them, while finding his fighter’s strengths, and emphasizing those.”

My favorite comment on this fight came from Twitter:

As the Mail said:

Joshua’s team has tried to hide from any fighter who could challenge him - and he still got beat up by two men with far inferior physical gifts!

I don’t know any fans who hate Anthony Joshua, and only a few who dislike him. He doesn’t get in trouble, beat women, or cheat fans like Fury or Mayweather.

In the first Usyk fight, Joshua showed every single one of his weaknesses. Usyk moved inside, as Ruiz had, but unlike Ruiz, possessed the elite footwork to keep Joshua in range, and most importantly, inside Joshua’s right hand.

Almost no one hates Anthony Joshua that I know of.

Joshua tried to adapt when he rematched Usyk, but lost again

The only physical attribute Joshua lacks is that his chin has been proven to be inferior. If it is not fair to label Joshua china chinned, but he certainly is not iron-chinned either.

“After being rocked, Joshua resorted to telegraphed punches and reckless exchanges, further exposing himself to Dubois.”

Ring for rankings

“Anthony Joshua is a pussy and is afraid to fight me.

“Joshua can’t outbox a guy with 350 amateur fights. He has to use his physical advantages and make it a rough night for Usyk.”

Finally, his worst weakness, a tendency to rush into exchanging once hurt, manifested itself yet again,

Fury predicted exactly what happened.

Joshua has been protected from any real competition his whole career, and other boxers sneer at him.

Joshua is a one trick pony - but the saddest thing is he has always had the sheer physical ability to be more.

“Eddie Hearn talks a lot of hot air as usual. I’ve been offering to fight Joshua for quite a while. I’ve been trying to make that fight happen for the last five years.

Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn said:

Mission Impossible : How Lennox Lewis Unified the World Heavyweight Title by James Lawton

Joshua also allowed Dubois to control the pace of the fight, allowed him to fire at will, held his hands low and his jaw high, and leaned back making himself an even better target.

CREDIT TO:

“In boxing, people walk in the gym one way and not many walk out the same way, because of the trauma and the stuff they put their body through. I want my legacy to be, I walked out healthy. Imagine me at the age of 50 or 60 in a wheelchair, fragile because of the trauma I put my body through.

That says it all…

Joshua is certainly brave enough, but he lacks the mental ability to even be a very good fighter when things veer from his fight plan. Joshua completely lack adaptability and ring IQ. He can follow a fight plan to the T, as he proved in Ruiz #2. But he cannot adapt on his own, as he showed in Ruiz #1, he cannot adapt to the unexpected, see again Ruiz #1, and worst of all, his natural instinct is to rush forward and engage.

“Boxing 101 - Usyk!

“You can teach a guy to jab and parry, you can teach him to hook and slip punches - but how to do each at the right second and do it when you are being hit, well, that you either were born with or not.”

Fury was asked to predict the outcome of the Usyk fight and said:

True that Andy…and saying that is not hate, it is just the truth. And it is a shame, because Josh could have been more, and seems to be a pretty nice guy to boot.

“It’s been pretty obvious for a while that Fury would box circles around Joshua. Usyk doesn’t have the size but he definitely has the skill to make any unification fight more interesting.”

Of course not.

Against a man with dangerous power, but little defense, Joshua failed to control distance, despite having a 4 inch reach advantage and a harder jab, then failed to adapt when Dubois began whaling on him.

Mike Tyson says correctly about Joshua:

Pointing out that he never lived up to his vast athletic potential is not hating Josh…

“Why didn’t Joshua fight Wilder? For my money Wilder would have had his way with Joshua.

Boxrec for records

“He got knocked out by a little fat guy in Andy Ruiz.”

But…

Luis Ortiz told Ring sneering angrily at Joshua’s cherry-picking and refusal to face top fighters:

He lacks hooks, uppercuts, and has no variety on his punches

“our era would have dominated the likes of Anthony Joshua.”

Usyk used constant feinting turn Joshua into a counterpuncher - and Joshua has no skill at counterpunching. While operating at close distance Usyk relied on his slick defense and head movement to slide away from big shots.

“He [Joshua] knows he doesn’t have the stamina to take a fight to somebody under sustained pressure, and keep that up, because he gasses after about three rounds and then he needs to take three or four rounds off. So he wouldn’t be able to do that against Usyk because Usyk will be on him all the time, making him fight. So I expect it to be awkward, maybe a bit of a chess match for a few rounds. And I expect AJ to run out of ideas, really. If he doesn’t land on him early and get him out of there with big punches, then I see it being a tough night for AJ. Joshua. He’s a one-trick pony.”

What is the truth about Joshua in the real world, not the land of never was?

Anthony Joshua is nowhere close to a great fighter.

Ouch.

Then, he stepped in with a truly elite boxer, who was also considerably smaller. Instead of using his strength and size to neutralize the boxer’s greater skill, he tried to outbox the boxing master.

He lacks anything close to elite boxing skills

“A devastating defeat, Usyk is very fit, he's got great feet, he threw a lot of punches. It was a tough defeat. [Joshua] got beat by the better man.”

Tommy Fury explains why Joshua never faced Wilder:

Josh has plenty of discipline and courage, but he just somehow has missed connecting the mental dots to be a great fighter

“Joshua isn't a fighter, he didn't even look like a boxer. He is going to be once again shown that he is nothing more than a ballerina when he goes up against Wilder or Fury…It's so hard to root for him when he fights like this. Dude just stand and fight! Running backwards like he's getting bullied at school.

His signature win, which his fanboys babble about, is beating a 41 year old has been Wlad Klitschko, who nearly beat Joshua despite being nearly eligible for Medicare.

Before Andy Ruiz and Oleksandr Usyk beat Joshua, both of them had not beaten one single solitary ranked heavyweight.

But he does not. He can follow a good fight plan, like he did staying outside with Andy “Moby Dick” Ruiz waddling after him. But if a fight plan breaks down?

Joshua only won the rematch by running for his life with the even Fatter Andy huffing and puffing in pursuit.

Did anyone see Robert Helenus, 38 years old, who Wilder just starched cold

And that Joshua did not do.

Fury also said bluntly:

Teddy Atlas (@TeddyAtlasReal) December 7, 2019

Joshua, as an alphabet champion, twice lost to guys who had never beaten a heavyweight contender.

His chin is spotty at best

Manny Steward explained once:

Recently, Joshua repeatedly expressed fears of permanent injury if he kept boxing, telling Men’s Health:

Fury said of Joshua:

Anthony Joshua is a highly protected fighter, and it came back to bite him, not once, not twice, but three times
