    If AJ beats Klitschko, will he be the bonafide #1 HW?

    I mean I sure as hell think so, what does NSB think? Should Fury or Wilder or Ortiz or Parker (or someone else) be considered #1 instead?

    I figured we get what everyone thinks in now, before the fight, so that y'all can't pull some baloney on the man if he wins. And ofcourse, if Klitschko wins I think he redeems himself for the Fury performance.

    Why?

    He wouldn't be the first to beat that fragile robot.

    AJ has to beat the rest and PROVE he's the best.

    A win over that old mummy should not put him over Wilder.

      I don't think Wilder has done all that much, though it's not entirely his fault. He had everything ready to go to fight Povetkin, which everyone demanded of him, and the fight had to be scrapped.

          Not even second best because Ortiz is in the mix. Fury is #1 until he legitimately loses, or passes away

            Joshua is the guy to beat based on the NOW .This is why i question boxing fans intellectual ability ...its like showing someone a red car and asking what color it is even though its red. Like the other thread i posted what doexs a MODERN fighter actually have to do to get fans to see legitimacy ?

              Old man Ortiz' stock has dropped.

              Fury is soft,bloated,and out of boxing.

                I guess. But Wlad losing to someone who uppercutted himself takes the luster out of it.

                  Wladimir has consistently fought year-round despite KO losses to Sanders and Brewster, now close to fourteen years later hes been inactive for the first time since those defeats and looked shot against Fury. One month before he faces Juiceua hes going to turn 42 ; the good thing is Joshua is chinny and stiff so he has a shot but if like the other poster mentioned Sanders-Brewster managed to stop him early in his career it should be less of a challenge at this point.

                  Understand people hes the best name on anyone's resume at HW and maybe even ranked higher by default based off accolades in his career in title reign and accomplishment in this sport...but he is no Deontay Wilder!!! Most defenses, VADA 365 tested and still a KO machine -- that itself makes him THE champion considering all these cheats in the division! therefore Joseph Parker and Deontay under the VADA program are the only HW that matter.

                    Nah, Fury was legitimately was on PEDs, so win Klit win shouldn't count.
