Boxing fans are buzzing after Anthony Joshua's dominant victory over Otto Wallin, with many claiming that AJ is back to his best. Joshua, 34, scored a technical knockout win against Wallin, who suffered a suspected broken nose during the fight. Fans are now speculating that Joshua could even defeat Tyson Fury, who struggled against Wallin when they fought in 2019.
Fans Declare Joshua's Comeback
After witnessing Joshua's impressive performance, fans took to social media to express their excitement. One fan on X (formerly known as Twitter) said, "That's the best Anthony Joshua has looked since the Klitschko fight in 2017. He's so back!" Another fan added, "Anthony Joshua wins the fight in round five by a corner stoppage! That was easy for him! He's back!"
Comparisons to Fury's Fight
Many fans pointed out that Joshua's victory over Wallin was far more decisive than Fury's. One fan said, "Tyson Fury went life and death with Otto Wallin. Anthony Joshua beat the living **** out of Otto Wallin for five rounds and made Otto Wallin quit in his corner stool. LEVELS!" Another fan confidently stated, "If OTTO WALLIN gave Fury issues, I'm sorry but Joshua and [Oleksansdr] Usyk demolish him."
Eddie Hearn's Confidence in Joshua
Joshua's promoter, Eddie Hearn, also showered praise on the heavyweight boxer. Hearn believes that Joshua is the best in the world right now, stating, "I believe that this Anthony Joshua is the best heavyweight in the world. In this mindset, with this team, I think he's unbeatable. 2024 is gonna be a massive year for him."
