If Anthony Joshua beats Daniel Dubois, and becomes the IBF World Champion 'No other Heavyweight besides Tyson Fury, should be fighting Oleksandr Uysk'.
I have stated this before? There have been three Heavyweight Mountains of this era 'Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua. Oleksandr Uysk historically is quite a recent factor in the division, it was mainly those other three fighters who? Cleared out the Heavyweight Division, with Anthony Joshua statistically being the Champion who beat the most top level Heavyweights'.
This has ultimately been their Heavyweight era 'All of the other fighters in the Heavyweight Division, are there to be match up on their undercard events. That is no disrespect, but you have the ask the question? Where have these other Heavyweight fighters been over the past decade?'
The facts of Heavyweight boxing history is, that all the Catalytic moments and fights of this Heavyweight era 'Have been directly caused by Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua. They have been involved in all of the main catalytic fights of this era'.
If this Heavyweight era was a movie, then Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua are the main characters'.
People need to understand, that Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder, Oleksandr Uysk and Anthony Joshua 'Have been embroiled in their own separate Heavyweight Competition. The competition to see who will be the last man standing from their Heavyweight era'.
These so called other Heavyweight's, that certain folk believe 'Deserve a title fight over Anthony Joshua. They have not been at any point the main characters of this Heavyweight era block buster movie. They are like characters turning up, three quarte's of the way through a movie and being involved in a solid scene'.
When their was pressure for Mike Tyson to fight Lennox Lewis in the early 2000's 'There would of been other Heavyweight's at the time, who certain people may have thought? Well I think this other Heavyweight deserves a fight with Lennox Lewis'.
Right now, we are in a similar situation 'Of course there are other fighters in the game, but what feats have they achieved that even compare to the exploit's of Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua. They are not even operating in the same stratosphere, those are the facts of the Heavyweight Division'.
The only fighter who outside of Tyson Fury, and Anthony Joshua 'Who is deserving of a title fight after them, is Joseph Parker. And this is because once upon a time, he was a WBO World Heavyweight Champion, he has not exactly played the same part of clearing out the division like Fury, Wilder and Joshua. But he has endured and perseveres through the post Kiltschko Heavyweight era'.
To conclude: Anthony Joshua may have been beaten by Oleksandr Uysk twice 'But nobody can really describe Uysk's wins as completely dominant and conclusive. Anthony Joshua conclusively knocked out Wladimir Kiltschko, and took the Heavyweight into a completely new dynasty 'This is what I mean, by a conclusively win'.
Anthony Joshua if he ever fights ether Oleksandr Uysk in the third fight, or Tyson Fury 'What I can envision, is that? Anthony Joshua has the ability to go beyond just being Uysk and Fury on points, there is a high likely-hood in my opinion that he is taking both of these fighters out. Because as I have stated before, Anthony Joshua is the only double jeopardy threat in the Heavyweight Division, he is the one of the most component and proven skill for skill pure boxers and also? Anthony Joshua is one of the most proven power punchers in the division. No other Heavyweight in the division has that combination of attributes and level of threat at such a high level, Anthony Joshua is the only one'.
'That if Joshua combines and utilizes all of his power, it is over for all of these top level Heavyweights'. The only way Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Uysk can get out of this situation, is if they don't fight Joshua.
There is a difference in the level of threat, and jeopardy between Fury, Uysk and Joshua. If Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Uysk execute their best performances, they are wining fights on points and maybe they will force a stoppage. If Anthony Joshua execute's his best performances, it is over. Joshua is obliterating, decimating and destroying all of these other top level Heavyweights' etc.
- - Deyonce and Blubber both frauds in their fashion.
AJ put hvywt boxing back in supremacy and now Usyk.
Joshua for sure could beat usyk in a 3rd fight. But I think others deserve a shot at usyk in their first attempt, rather than 3rd.

If the third Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Uysk fight is ever made, lets all be honest 'Nobody here is certain that Uysk is going to win that fight. People are already in anticipation making excuses for Oleksandr Uysk and Tyson Fury, if they was to ever lose to Anthony Joshua'.
The reality is, all of these fighters are from the same generation 'The battle between the top 4 Heavyweights to see who will be the last man standing, is a drawn out battle.

During all of those times, I envisioned a potentially different competition to most other people in the boxing community 'And since that point on a fight by fight basis, tectonic shifts have been occurring in the sport of boxing'.

I’d say Fury, but Usyk definitely starts favourite again.
If Usyk fights on towards 40, maybe an up and coming guy like Jalolov can catch him at the right time.
Joshua got schooled twice by Usyk. They'd have to fight an extra 3 times with Joshua winning them all to prove he is better.
That's doing something 3 times hes failed to do once in 2 tries.
GTFOH with the shït!!!
It's heavyweight... Anyone can beat anyone if the stars align and they land the right shot. The only guys who are truly unbeatable are the ones who don't fight.
The Heavyweight nobody wants to talk about in regards 'To him fighting both Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Uysk. That fighter is Anthony Joshua'.
Anthony Joshua is the only double jeopardy threat in the Heavyweight Division i.e Joshua skill for skill is rated in the top-3 most proven component pure boxers, and there is a definitive debate that since Fury vs Uysk I? Anthony Joshua can be rated as the second best pure boxer in the division behind Oleksandr Uysk.
Joshua can also be rated as one of the most proven, destructive, offensive and power punchers in the division.
There is no other Heavyweight currently active in the sport, who has that combination of proven attributes at World and Elite level 'Anthony Joshua is the only double jeopardy threat'.
Anthony Joshua is still stylistically the most difficult fight, for the highest number of top level Heavyweights in the sport. If the business opportunity was the same for all potential match ups in the division that could happen, and? All top level Heavyweights where posed the question, which fighters they most wanted to fight? Very few Heavyweights would be raising their arm to fight Anthony Joshua.
Lets all be honest, they would be picking Uysk, Fury, Zhang, Dubois, Wilder and so on 'Very few would be picking Anthony Joshua'.
People right now in the boxing game are ether being nice to Joshua, or they don't want to talk about him 'Because they all know, if Joshua fully utilizes all of his power. Then it is potentially over'.
It is over for whoever he fights, Tyson Fury, Oleksandr Uysk, Daniel Dubois, Zhilei Zhang, Joseph Parker 'It will be over for all of them'.
It is not about Anthony Joshua being at his peak, or bringing back the old Joshua 'It is about Joshua combining his attributes, and he has attributes which make him the only double jeopardy threat in the division at a high level'.
Tyson Fury is not double jeopardy threat, neither is Oleksandr Uysk stylistically 'They are great pure boxers skill for skill, but their offensive capabilities in my opinion are not in the same stratosphere of operation as Anthony Joshua when he unleashes the power'.
Nobody here would be surprised if Daniel Dubois does not make it past the mid-way point vs Anthony Joshua 'And we can go through the entire top level Heavyweights, and it is a similar perspective that we can all envision if they was to ever fight Anthony Joshua'.
Zhilei Zhang, Joseph Parker, whoever you want to pick 'It is exactly the same situation, nobody would be surprised'.
I would state that Anthony Joshua's critics are aware of this, that is why? If you take a look around, the narrative which surrounds Joshua has completely altered over the past year. There is not much conviction from those that used to incessantly mock him, and try their best to promote the narratives that he is petrified of all these other Heavyweights. Now the situation is that people just don't want to talk about Joshua.
Note: Tyson Fury is actually the fighter I rate as the second most likely Heavyweight to beat Oleksandr Uysk. I have spoken in great detail about why I believe both Fury and Joshua can beat Uysk, this is mainly because I believe Fury and Joshua have a more vast operational window at Heavyweight than Uysk.
Operational window i.e Tyson Fury could so easily morph his physique up above 270 + pounds, and completely altered his style and tactics. The Anthony Joshua we have witnessed in his recent fights, has morphed his physique and his style compared to when he last fought Uysk.
The reason why fighters like Fury and Joshua able to do this, is because they have fought their entire careers at Heavyweight 'Which is a open class division. Fighters in a open class division compared to lower weight class fighters, have a lot more space for creativity and ingenuity in terms of preparation. And because of this? Over time they build a more vast operational window, they gather more experience of specific styles of preparation and fighting'.
Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Uysk II 'Is projected for December 21st 2024'. There is completely nothing stopping Tyson Fury, from contacting Dorian Yates and saying 'Listen, I want you to train me, subject me to the same stimulus and exercises you used during the 90's which lead you to winning Six Mr Olympia titles'.
If Tyson Fury wants to fly into a base camp at Mount Everest, and climb Mount Everest as apart of his training 'Tyson Fury can incorporate all of those training methodologies into his preparation for the Uysk rematch'.
Heavyweight fighters in the Heavyweight Division, have the ability to prepare in a much more vast operational window 'Because they don't have to make a weight limit, be concerned with check weigh in's or rehydration clauses' A open class weight division, is the most pure and raw form of competition within boxing'.
Fighters in the lower weight classes, operate in a more narrow constraint competitive environment 'Over the years this does not really build a vast operational window, in the same way a Heavyweight fighter has the ability to'.
Oleksandr Uysk in that regard does not have the same type of documented experience as Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua 'They have more altercations in their game than Oleksandr Uysk, that we have actually witnessed them applying throughout their careers'.
Oleksandr Uysk is a great fighter, he is the most accomplished active fighter in the sport of boxing 'Uysk's wins over both Fury and Joshua are pound for pound, the greatest feats of achievement in the sport of boxing in the last 15 years'. But his best attributes as a fighter, only allow him to win a certain way at Heavyweight 'Uysk is ether out skilling his opponents, or out lasting them with his endurance'.
If you compare Oleksandr Uysk to fighters such as David Haye and Evander Holyfield 'Those former cruiserweights, even as Heavyweights. There best attributes as fighters, allowed them to win fights in a more sensational, brutal and at times conclusive fashion than Uysk'.
David Haye had immense power, speed, athleticism, and his defensive capabilities at his peak were superior to Uysk. Evander Holyfield had extreme levels of brute strength, endurance. Combined with a high invulnerability to physical attacks, and some sort of healing factor.
If people understand what I am saying? Oleksandr Uysk at Heavyweight has never been that type of fighter or threat 'Stylistically if Uysk is embroiled in rematches and trilogy's with fighters like Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua those fights are always going to be potentially extremely difficult fights. Especially if Fury and Joshua are in solid condition'.
To conclude: Anthony Joshua upon analysis is stylistically the most difficult fight in the division for Oleksandr Uysk 'And I would rate Tyson Fury as the second most likely fighter to beat Oleksandr Uysk' etc.
Very interesting ideas Prince.
Although the public appetite for Usyk - Joshua III might make it something less than a "Super Fight" given the texture and outcome of their first two meetings, the resurgent Joshua must certainly rank as one of the best opponents for him.
Agit Kabayel is another excellent choice.
Long the sleeper in the division, he has really showcassd the wares in recent fight, and he my very well prove to be the man with the formula. His body attacks are lethal and that could be just what the doctor ordered.
Jared Anderson is yet to really arrive, and is still at a point when his doubters have plenty of ammo against him. But if he happens to execute the Michael Hunter plan and dump Bakole impressively, most of that criticism will just blow away.
Andy Ruiz Jr is dangerous when motivated to win, and although it seems that he's been around forever, he's still pretty young. Power, fast hands and good technical skills, if he's switched on, he's a handful for anyone; ask Joshua.
Bakhodir Jalolov, the big Uzbek, is coming. He sure looks the part in the early going. But Usyk isn't put off by size.
Whether you're 6-9 260 or 7-9 500, Usyk is well aware that your target areas begin with your feet on the ground.
People love to relish being in the moment. They love to feel as if they're bearing witness to something timeless.
It's the nature of the beast.
I just came across a post saying "if nobody beats him (among 6 top current Heavyweights), he's goat alongside Ali".
I don't know about all that, let alone the prospects of Usyk having that many fights remaining, but the next leg of the journey begins with the rematch with Fury in December.
The Heavyweight nobody wants to talk about in regards 'To him fighting both Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Uysk. That fighter is Anthony Joshua'.
Anthony Joshua is the only double jeopardy threat in the Heavyweight Division i.e Joshua skill for skill is rated in the top-3 most proven component pure boxers, and there is a definitive debate that since Fury vs Uysk I?

Yes basically anyone with a good chin who hits hard. If you have a good chin you can really put it on him. Uysk said he found Chisora tough to deal with. So you need that agressive approach. Don't try to outbox Usyk!
Joyce actually hit him a lot in their old fight and he is pretty slow. Joyce just doesn't have that much power though.
I am going to say Zhang, Ruiz. Someone like that. But why would Usyk fight these guys? There is nothing in it for him apart from risk. All he wants to do is beat Fury again and then go down to CW.
