Fury gonna be running things for the next few years if he gets past Klitschko again. I think thats likely to happen, but to me Fury seems like a guy who's his own worst enemy. So I could easily see him come in 30lbs heavier vs Klitschko & his ship getting sunk right there.
Joshua seems like the 2nd most likely contender to be running things. His biggest problem is probably his chin. We will get more confirmation on how much of a problem that is or isn't as Joshua faces better more stronger opponents. I suspect his record will look like Frank Bruno's in another 6-8 years with a bunch of early KO's & some late KO L's.
I'd throw Wilder & Parker tied for the third spot. Wilder has been on the job training as a HW title holder & still getting the W's so he could still get there as elite level boxing skill isn't necessarily a needed requirement for a HW. I suspect he'll be a guy who'll be in some fun fights in the future, but will come up short in his biggest fights. Parker is still largely unknown to me as I haven't seen as many fights as the other guys, but he seems to show promise. His upcoming fight with Takam will go a long way for me in seeing what he could be capable of.

Originally posted by juggernaut666 View PostI think Wlad and Wilder would be way more entertaining than Povetkin again....I don't think would retire without trying to unify the belts.I don't think he will duck the top guy if he wins,and the consensus is that's AJ. Wlad himself says its AJ so that's who I believe he will want. and I see that fight more dangerous for him than any. AJ is already favored over Wlad should they fight.
AJ may be favoured by some over Wlad but the consensus is not AJ is better than Wlad right now, right now Wlad is recognised as the no.2. I'm not overly sure how many people genuinely believe AJ would beat Wlad right now, I'd wager even fewer would be prepared to put money where their mouths are.
Wlad would starch AJ and Wilder. Ortiz and Fury are the only two who give him any issues right now.

'I've faced a lot of athletes and opponents and in the last 25 years there is one person who has the potential to become a really big star in boxing,' Klitschko told BBC Radio.
'Not only inside the ring but that person, and I'm talking about Anthony Joshua, has qualities that not many guys have had.
'Either they had good skills but not the strength, or they had strength but not the skills. Or they were good inside the ring but not outside because their life outside messed them up and that reflected on their sporting career.
'I think Anthony has all the tools to become the great champion inside and outside the ring.'

He said: “I haven’t seen an athlete as athletic, as big, as fast, as talented as Anthony and if he’s going to continue the way he is, developing himself, the future belongs to him.”
“the future of the division belongs to Joshua”
Gavern has also sparred with the British tyro in the past, and rates Joshua as “in the top three fighters I’ve ever been in with”.

Originally posted by Freedom2016 View PostThat what people said about Whyte and Martin, ooh its too soon, ooh he isn't ready yet, ooh he is going to get exposed because not enough fights blah blah blah
I'd wager with anyone that AJ will spark Fury out in absolutely brutal fashion it wont even be close.
