Comments Thread For: Joshua To Top Wembley in July - Against Wilder, Fury or Haye

[juggernaut666]

Somebody forgot that Klitchko may beat fury and Wlad will be looking for Joshua sooner than later...wilder will avoid Joshua as long as he can so that leaves Haye and imop Wlad who is going to crash this party.

Haye never gets the proper respect in these kind of discussions. Haye is still a livewire and the only genuine world-class fighter the UK has at this weight. He's certainly the only boxer I can imagine giving anyone any problems in the so-called 'golden eras'. Can you see Wilder, Fury, Parker or Joshua doing anything but being outboxed or KO'd by Liston, Ali, Foreman, or later Lewis, Holyfield or Tyson? Problem is he's a bit small as a HW in this age of Super Heavyweights (6'3 my arse) and he seems to have been more focused on building a fanbase and becoming a celebrity than furthering his legacy as a boxer. Why else would you fight tin cans on Dave than genuine HW contenders? That being said, he remains the biggest risk to all the current crop of HW's. He has slick skills, he's quick, he can move, his defence is excellent thanks to his reaction time, he's athletic, and he can ****. Properly ****. Even when 'the engine' Chisora looked like he'd grind him down with constant pressure from a heavier fighter, he turned it round by letting his hands go. He's a special fighter and it's just a shame he's not a couple inches taller.

Gettin' a little ahead of yourself there Eddie.

Doubt any of those 3 fights will happen

I would say Haye is the most likely to happen..

Should be vs Fury (he can't punch) Haye is not a big sell world wide only in England is it interesting. Wilder should be the main opponent because it's a world wide match up against a guy who is beatable but dangerous!
Theres something about Wilder I see more of now and I don't think this guy thinks he can be beat! Now many fighters will tell you that but I see a look in this kids eyes that shows me determination and willingness. When Fury got in the ring for the promo crap he said something to Wilder that got his goat and he reminded Fury he had a contract prior to Wlad! Now of course your choosing
Wlad over Wilder but this Wilder is a game kid despite his short comings.


Hopefully Wlad gets beat and goes home......
Joshua gets Fury in a title fight in England.......
Haye goes in to modeling and C movies..........
Joshua KO's Fury and fights Wilder in Vegas or New York or the Tokyo Dome.

Mix in who ever is coming and hopefully they are talented and willing.

True....I saw that in Wilder in the lead up to the Stiverne fight....Hes a very confident mentally tough kid and combined with his brutal power makes him very dangerous.

If I know Eddie he's going to milk it for as long as he can before he risks his cash cow.

That is how PRIZE FIGHTING works!!!

Wouldn't be the first or the last time you see this happening.

Canelo passing up on GGG to fight Khan is another example for you.

Cash cows and protection go hand in hand in boxing!!

If klitschko beats fury I expect him to retire. Big speculation that klitschko was over the hill even in the Jennings fight, I see the fury rematch as his last Stand win or lose

Klitchko has already stated he wants to collect the belts was even talking Olympics before the Fury fiasco , he wants to remind everyone hes the best than retire , match wise Joshua presents the more danger than anyone . I believe it will be decided how he feels after the Fury fight , he also has stated the new line up of fighters is very motivating which will bring out the best in great fighters ,never count out elite athletes at any age hes easily the most well fine tuned 40 year old to grace a ring. .

Hope they do!
