Whilst his abilities have astounded one and all, Deontay Wilder‘s ex-trainer Mark Breland wasn’t too impressed by ‘AJ’. While he was in a chat with Stamina for Sale alongside The Fight is Right, he opened up on Joshua’s style of fighting.
Here he said, “To be honest, I could beat Anthony Joshua. Doesn’t have a jab at all. I would out-jab him. I don’t think he’d be able to touch me. I’d put him to sleep. Fury would beat him up… He’s just straightforward, he’s not hard to hit.”
