Whilst many have accused Anthony Joshua of holding back the fearsome shots that sent him to the top of the heavyweight division in quick time, one of his opponent’s trainers has now compared the Brit’s shot selection to Mike Tyson’s.
Joshua knocked out all of his first 20 opponents, including the likes of Wladimir Klitschko, Carlos Takam and Charles Martin in five world title fights.
Joseph Parker in 2018 was the first man to take him the distance and since then he has lost three times, had two more points wins and just two knockouts.
Speaking on TalkSport, Deontay Wilder’s trainer and former heavyweight, Malik Scott, was musing on Joshua’s size and power just days after Eddie Hearn confirmed terms have been agreed for both men to face each other.
