Anthony Joshua's Great 5: The first full 12 rounds of his career

Anthony Joshua's Great 5: The first full 12 rounds of his career

On March 31, 2018, another big challenge is coming for Anthony Joshua. The London 2012 amateur Olympic champion has long been a professional world champion. In fact, for AJ, fighting against the best is a tradition. Wladimir Klitschko, Dillian Whyte, Carlos Takam and Eric Molina are just some of his 20 total victims. For the 21st, Eddie Hearn has prepared for his client another elite boxer - world champion Joseph Parker. The Englishman and the Australian will unite 4 of the most important heavyweight championship belts in Cardiff.

Parker is among the most respected boxers in the division. He does not stand out with physical data, but he is extremely consistent, disciplined, technical and with a very strong chin. His perfect 24-fight record includes wins against Carlos Takam, Alexander Dimitrenko, Andy Ruiz and Huey Fury. Long games are his specialty. Unlike Anthony, who regularly puts opponents down early in fights, Parker has gone 12 rounds in 4 of his last 6 fights. Joshua has yet to stand in the ring for the full 36 minutes, and even before the fight it is clear that he will probably have to.

Somewhat logically, Anthony and Joseph fill out the 12-round format in a wonderfully tactical bout. A match that shows the different side of AJ. The world understands that the Englishman is not just a knockout. He clearly does not rely only on his impressive height and impressive muscles. The judges are unanimous - Joshua is the winner. The Olympic champion from London shows technique, finesse and high boxing skills. As well as great durability. Another criticism of his style is brushed aside.
