Anthony Joshua, fresh off KO’ing Francis Ngannou, watches closely, his intentions set on challenging the victor of the Fury vs. Usyk clash. And fans are already predicting the outcome of that.
Firstly, one user who couldn’t help but jest, “What kinda shitty jump squats is that 😂,” highlighting a less-than-impressed view of Fury’s squat technique. Subsequently, another user chimed in, offering a constructive critique with, “Need some work on mobility champ,” suggesting that even a champion like Fury has room for improvement in his squat form. This sentiment was echoed by another user, who pointedly remarked, “All these people on the payroll and none of them are improving that form…” indicating a surprising expectation for higher training standards.
