    And I just have a feeling that he has a good chin and can take a decent shot.
    Anyone who licenses James Toney for another fight should be arrested for life.

        If he loses to Whyte, which is a possibility, people will say he's just a hypejob.

        Even if he does lose this early in his career, he could still go on to become champ.

          Maybe but I don't see anyone in the current crop of Heavyweights who will be able to test it.

          P.S Whyte is overrated and stiff as heck, Joshua will stop him in 3. Good win but nothing to get carried away about.

            I can't see him losing to Whyte at all, but white is just a prospect too.

            The jury is still out on Joshua in my opinion. Don't forget that Price was just as hyped as Joshua just a couple of years ago until he ran into an experienced good fighter like Thompson and he got found out. He still has a way to go yet and will be tested properly, but he will be the first to admit it from what i've seen of his interviews.

              It is not a foregone conclusion that Joshua has average or even poor stamina. However, I think it is a legitimate concern to have about a guy with that body type.

                Hard to judge his chin because he was fighting world class opposition when he was very inexperienced.

                Stamina is untested obviously but im not buying the argument that his stamina will be **** because hes muscular. Rugby players are regularly between 250-300lbs of muscle and they play one of the hardest endurance sports on the planet.
                yeah but joshua is built more like than nfl player than a rugby player

                  I think we will see a bit more of what Joshua has in his next fight against whyte.....I agree he does need rounds and someone sturdy but he keeps knocking them over , they said after the dillain fight if all gos well there gonna get him to face world ranked and durable contenders, I think the way he fights is conservative and he wastes little energy...clean aacurate puncher that just waits till the moment arrives to finish you , I like the fact that there doing the next fight with whyte so he is kind of cleaning the demons out of his closet ....facing the person who stopped him as an amatuer and don't get me wrong whyte is dangerous heavyweight for anybody not just Joshua he too has massive power, I think the boy is gonna go far and when ever I heard him interviewed he seem s decent humble guy, not sure if he was always like that but it seems he has gained respect for the sport . I think Joshua will be the real deal
                  I'm rooting for AJ to be the real deal, having met him a fair few times, he is a great laugh and we get along so I like him. I just hope he gets better opposition after WHyte.

                    Maybe. Some of the guys in Rugby League are built similar to Joshua and they seem to do ok.

                    Obviously the jurys out until he proves it in the ring, im just wouldnt be confident making snap judgements based on the size of his muscles.

                    It'd be a massive oversight by his team if they werent training his endurance to be ready for 12 rounds. Its not like he has an inexperienced team or anything
