Media Anthony Joshua training for MMA?

If the check clears, it ain't dumb. He wouldn't be coming for a career, he'd be coming over for a huge payday
I mean Im happy he gets money but I'm a fan here for fights. I'd choose watching Ngannou vs Jones/Aspinall/Pavlovich over Fury/Joshua/Renan (did I spell that right?). I literally don't care if he made 20M for UFC vs 50M in boxing/PFL.

20M with 6% interest is over a million free the rest of his life risk free basically. He's good either way, Id be more happy with his boxing decision if I made money from it.

I meant the other way around,. He started in boxing and went to mma
I know that's how he went, but climbing boxing ranks is harder than the shallow pool of UFC fighters. Maybe dude would've been crazy in boxing if he stuck with it, but I never entertained that he would switch to boxing and be a real boxer.

The point is you said Joshua cant do it. Of course he can.

Ehhh.... You don't need much to make waves in UFC at HW, but AJ is already too old. Guys are going full D1 right off the bat. He can't go under radar and won't get anyone with no names if it were serious.

I think even Gane would look like Brock in there with him. Would be funny to see Tuivasa.

Arent there a lot of big dudes in the heavies who cant grapple and just bang? He can beat those

I'm guessing even someone like Tuivasa is so much further ahead in grappling that AJ would need to be a savant. Who knows? Maybe his athleticism could carry over. Still never seen anyone from boxing besides old Mercer with a lucky punch on Sylvia, who still lost to Kimbo.

He lost to Kimbo but he did get up from one of the takedowns. And he was a dinousaur.
 
Didn't Mighty Mouse claim AJ would do well at UFC HW even with no MMA background?

Haha yes, he said (somehow paradoxically) that Joshua would beat francis but he wouldnt destroy him like he did in Boxing.
yet his hole argument was based on Joshua destroying Ngannou in mma... So did he think Ngannou would survive joshuas shots in 8oz gloves and Josh would win on points?:S
 
Jon Jones has called boxers "killers". He also said Ngannou is one of the scariest dudes alive.

Joshua says hello Jon! 8 oz gloves:D.:D

(No I dont think it would happen but Jones would shit his pants).
I think joshus would tap out after 2 12 6ers from jon
