    But then if you chucked him in with Sprott that would be very interesting at this early stage in his development.
    I would keep Sprott well away from him for a good few fights yet and probably even Sam Sexton right now.

    I know he's only a few fights in but he really does look like a KO waiting to happen to me, and by KO waiting to happen i don't mean once he get's to world level, i mean he looks as if he'll struggle at domestic level against someone who'll throw back with bad intentions.

      AJ would easily beat both Sprott and Skelton in a couple of rounds. Those aren't the guys he need to worry about. I'd like to see him step it up after he's had about 10 fights, which should hopefully be in the beginning of 2015.

      He's clearly better than British level, and I'd imagine he'd rise relatively quickly ala David Price. On the British scene, his biggest problem will be Derek Chisora without question. I have my fears about his chin, I certainly think he will be KOd - so I guess in that sense we have a new Lennox Lewis. But like LL, he will need a trainer that can teach him the finer arts of pugilism. I don't think Tony Sims is that man.

      Now, Britain has two great young heavyweights at the moment. One will become a major force for the next ten-fifteen years.. My gut feeling is that the other is Anthony Joshua.

        I know exactly what you mean, he does look a bit too good and pretty be true, and that chin sticks out a bit.
