      Joshua needs to beat the real top upcoming contenders like Tom Schwarz, Frans Pianetta and Safari Seferi to secure a legacy!

      How many times did Fury beat Chisora? 3.
      How many times did AJ beat Chisora? 0.

      QED

          His legacy mostly lies in how big of a star and draw he was more so than his actual fight career. Then again its not like anyone at HW currently really has an ATG resume anyway.

            Good pep talk by froch. Once Josh beats wilder it will rebuild his reputation somewhat. He can live off that win until Fury fights josh

                As a Calzaghe fan I've finally started to come round to Froch and don't mind him, but he's still capable of being a prat to fellow Brit boxers in particular. Plus he believes the earth is flat, says it all.

                He's a little right on AJ and perhaps it'll do him good to hear. But come on, he's got 3 losses on his record, you finished up with 2. Are you really all that different?

                Give the guy a break, you're not as highly rated in boxing yourself - as you might like to think.

                  He's not that far of HOF - beat either Wilder or Fury and a couple of contenders and he's in. I think AJ has ambition and is a perfectionist as well. Pretty sure he analyses the losses and thinks "I could have won that if I had done xyz differently" - so he is trying to still grow as a fighter - which is an admirable mindset. Most will say he is what he is or even on decline. I don't think so from a boxing pov - his 2nd fight against Usyk I have never seen him box better., but he still came up short against a generational talent. Where he is deficient is in the mental side of the sport and I don't know if he can put that right.

                    Froch doesn't really think that the earth is flat, you gullible fool.

                    Froch has a very dry sense of humour, he's just on the wind up.

                    He's right about Joshua, his best career win is Tyson Fury's sloppy seconds.
