Where Do You Rank Anthony Joshua In Your List?

TheBoxGod5y ago

I always notice he gets overlooked for imo looking too vunerable but ....... he has the W's over some top names in HW/ Where you guys rank him? Currently

Comments (14)

3. There were 3 (I already had Fury as 1) and I don't see what Joshua has done since these three were regarded as the top three to suggest he beats Wilder? I'd take Wilder to knock out Joshua and Ruiz. 1 Fury by a mile has been since beating Wlad. 2. Wilder 3. Joshua.

5y ago

He's #2 but there's a decent gap between the top 2 and the rest.

5y ago

Yoka, Makhmudov, and Wilder would beat him up worse than Andy did.

5y ago

Yoka, Makhmudov, and Wilder would lay him out cold.

5y ago

1a to Fury’s 1b. But all time: above Bowe, Vitali and Fury. You sound ridiculous.

5y ago

I had him as #3 but seeing as how Wilder has disappeared off the face of the earth, i've moved him to #2.

5y ago

As some of the more rational posters have stated already, #2 behind Tyson Fury. Can't argue with that. Behind those two you have a large pool of contenders who are hard to seperate. Wilder, Ruiz Jr., Povetkin, Whyte, Ortiz, Hunter, etc.

5y ago

Career ranking of active fighters #1. Fury probably edges him in current ranking based on the ebb and flow of the last few fights.

5y ago

Number 2 or joint number 1 currently and should he defeat Pulev he should hopefully be contesting for number 1. Currently this is of course. All time, and I am a big Joshua fan, I don't have him very high at all. He's good but he's far from great.

5y ago

Hez loss to Ruiz derailed him being #1 in the division but a win against fury will have him at strong #1 without any argument. At the moment, I will have him #2 because of the loss to Ruiz, otherwise he has a better resume than fury.

5y ago

Hes the clear no2 currently.

5y ago

Currently. Well it really only between him and Fury i think he has more quality names overall than Fury, but Fury's top 2 wins are more impressive than Joshua's top 2 wins.... I think Joshua's loss against Ruiz puts him at number 2 behind Fury until they fight to be honest

5y ago

all time or currently? Currently.
