Anthony Joshua's new coach says he has more talent than Tyson Fury, and that his 'insane strength' surpasses Deontay wilder's.

ANTHONY JOSHUA'S coach now believes he is the most "talented" heavyweight and hardest-hitting on the planet.

Robert Garcia was brought in to assist AJ with his high-stakes summer rematch against Oleksandr Usyk. This is following the retirement of Robert McCraken, AJ's long-time trainer.

Garcia first saw Joshua, a Watford warrior, seven years ago as he beat Kevin Johnson. His progression through the years has made a lasting impression on Garcia.

Little Giant Boxing was told by him: "Still, a year ago. Two years ago. If you ask me, 'Who's the most talented heavyweight?' I have always said Anthony Joshua.

"Talent-wise [Tyson] Fury, is a completely different beast, a totally different monster.

"Usyk's work is complex and technical because he is smaller and faster."

Before his appointment was confirmed, Garcia trained with AJ in secret. He was blown away at the Brit's bruising power.

He continued: "[Deontay] Wilder, tremendous power. Each person has their unique qualities.

"But overall, if we're talking talent, I choose Anthony Joshua. Anthony Joshua also has insane power.

"Oh my goodness, he has great power. He's more powerful than anyone else, I believe.

Wilder, although I have never felt his power, what I've seen [knocking] fools out of him, Wilder is also one of those guys that has that one-punch knockout punch power.

"But Anthony Joshua has it. He is very, very strong.

Garcia has coached 14 champions since 2001, but has not coached a heavyweight to a title in the world.

He's looking forward to the challenge of giving Usyk, a slick southpaw, his first professional loss.

He stated, "It's an enormous challenge for me since this is my first fight for a title as a heavyweight." It's almost like a dream come true.

"I have had champions in nearly every weight division, from 105 to108 to 112 to 112, to 115 to 115 to 122 to 126 to 135lbs.
