Re: Anthony Joshua
The reason he had no legs is because Tyson Fury knows exactly what he is doing. (according to Joe Rogan - it's not my observation) Fury told Joe that he had noticed in the last fight that Wilder couldn't fight backing up. As Joe tells it, when Fury got flattened in the 12th round, he knew he had to...

For record I thought Heinz sped things up when he came on but then got a lot worse.

The Curry selection is annoyingly stubborn, but then I suppose he's painted himself into a corner with his initial squad selection.
