My gosh Joshua has slim pickings..

I didnt agree with anything..you stated this era has prospects picking up belts like its new.....You have to be a prospect most of the time before you become a champion?you just dont get it...you dont know what you are talking about. This era is no different than most . AJ had 15 fights and had been boxing professionally just over 2 years when he picked up the world title, he hadnt fought above domestic level, of course he was still a prospect then you complete and utter mentalist :lol1:

He was still a prospect you idiot....unless you think Martin somehow proved after he defeated him he wasnt anymore? Only until he defeatted Klitchko he shopwed he was no longer considered green,why is that hard to under stand..lol Belt holders are still prospects depending on longetivity and record...you fool....Belts dont mean you arent a prospect anymore.,its who you fight. lol so you agree with me and then call me an idiot? you are ridiculous :lol1:

Well isnt that what Lewis did too...wasnt he an under dog unknown going into his title fight similar to Joshua? ...you fool....everyones a prospect until they have a notable win you fool..just like V.Klitchko was as well against Sanders....Klitchko was a notable one wasnt he for Joshua ? lol Why can't you comprehend simple facts- aj was a prospect picking up a belt, as was parker... my days, you have the brain the size of a goddamn field mouse

Prospects dont defeat let alone knock out Wlad klitchko...lol I said prospects picking up belts. AJ was still a prospect when he beat martin good lord your a mong

I think Izu would spark Ruiz out . Also Haye if he comes prepared. Ruiz is to short combined with limited foot work as an overly effective counter puncher for an overweight guy . Parker fights to his opposition pace which what you got in the Ruiz fight . I forgot about Izu, he's another one. Oh and I'm basing those names I entered from Ring and ESPN rankings. And I certainly hope that is the case with Parker fighting to the level of his competition. He hasn't looked too great since the Takam fight. But I'm not abandoning hope for him yet though in being competitive with the other top 5 or so Heavyweights.

People thought the Wlad era was a terribile state of affairs for the HW division....now you got prospects like Parker and AJ picking up belts before they ever fought anyone. it's crazy.

Id imagine an Usyk fight would be pretty big eventually, if he clears out Cruiserweight and moves up like hes talked about.

The saddest part is that these guys have no skill, C lv bumbs facing D lv opponents and protected by numbers. Hw skills are lower than ever. Meatheads abusing peds. I can't think of a worse HW division than this one at any time in the history of boxing.

Heavyweights are less skillful by far. I also wish people would stop putting heavyweight fighters on the p4p list. That's not how it works.

wlad-AJ deserves to be fight of the year so far. AJ-wilder will be huge. after that its desolate but lets be real, so has the heavyweight division since the 90s. The biggest fight in the last 17 years was shot mike tyson vs lennox lewis, 15 years ago. Boxing fans all knew mike had no chance but it was hyped well to casuals.

-WK retired -Fury retired -Povetkin (busted) -Pulev (decent nothing more) -Joseph Parker (average) -Haye (old & cherry picking) -Ortiz (dangerous but untested) -Miller (poor mans David Tua) -Wilder in 10 years has fought how many top 10 HWs? ****ing hell that's an awful crop.... LOLOf all the names you mentioned; I believe Wilder has the best chance of defeating AJ. He has that rare combination of speed, defense, stamina and power. Moreover, he doesn't get hit flush with power punches all that much. One reason why is because he often beats his opponents to the punch. The only advantage I give Anthony Joshua over Deontay Wilder is that he is more of your prototypical boxer/puncher. He is the more fundamentally sound of the two when it comes down to being just a pure boxer. For example, he has a much better jab than Wilder and perhaps even better footwork. If he can stay out the exchanges than he has a better chance of upsetting Wilder. However if he decides to bang by exchanging, trading punches and slugging toe to toe with him then he loses.

Let's see top guys right now are: Joshua Wilder Ortiz Parker Pulev Miller Whyte Ruiz Breazeale The 3 best obviously are Joshua, Wilder, Ortiz.....not bad Parker is a belt holder, still has a lot to prove but doesn't pass the eye test. Miller is unproven, though I think he gets starched once he steps up to one of the big 3. Some other guys may be on the rise but it may be awhile. Guys like Daniel Dubois have a ways to go. Lawrence Okolie may be a heavyweight eventually. The big 3 is good enough, let's see what happens with them. My hunch is Joshua will be the last man standing.

It should be DAVID HAYE

Please Joshua is the $ man he can fight whoever the f.uck he wants He could fight Ortuz Wilder Fury ( if he comes back ) Haye Povetkin Whoever else, Stop making excuses because HEARN would rather treat Joshua with kid gloves

The saddest part is that these guys have no skill, C lv bumbs facing D lv opponents and protected by numbers. Hw skills are lower than ever. Meatheads abusing peds.

If he's looking for a challenge, Ortiz is the best of the bunch. Let's get it on!

I don't see anyone who can threaten him. Wilder's closest, but he won't beat Joshua. 2012 David Haye (with a healthy toe) would be a nightmare for him but it's not 2012 now.

At least he managed to get Wlad before he retired.

We might have to wait a couple of years for prospect kids like Hrgovic and Sirenko to get a real challenge.
