If Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua were to fight in 2025, what could we expect? Well, we have taken it upon ourselves to ask ChatGPT to predict the superfight should it take place in the new year. Taking into consideration their strengths and weaknesses, and also analysing what position they will be in in 2025, AI has come out with a winner, so let’s dive in and take a look.
Everyone knows the strengths of Fury. The Gypsy King has incredible agility for a man of his size (6’9″, 270+ lbs), exceptional boxing IQ, and the ability to switch tactics during a fight. With only two defeats on his record, both coming against, arguably, one of the greatest boxers of all time, Tyson poses a threat to boxers like not many can. In comparison to Fury, Joshua is an elite athlete with incredible physical power (6’6″, 240-250 lbs). His fundamentals — jab, straight right hand, and combination punching — are solid, and when he boxes intelligently, he’s hard to beat. His ability to hurt opponents with just one punch is a significant asset.
Weaknesses
Despite their glaring strengths, both fighters have weaknesses that can be exposed. Despite his size and agility, Fury’s occasional lapses in focus, especially in earlier rounds, have been seen. His stamina and ability to stay focused over 12 rounds have also been questioned, especially in tough, gruelling fights. Joshua, meanwhile, has shown some vulnerability to pressure fighters who can push him into uncomfortable situations, like Andy Ruiz Jr and Oleksandr Usyk. He’s been criticised for lacking the aggressive, relentless streak that would enable him to break down a champion like Fury. He also struggles under sustained pressure, especially if he’s rocked or hurt early in a fight.
