My gosh Joshua has slim pickings..

[-MAKAVELLI-]

fight King Kong

[NYG]

Dont forget Wilder also beats Mike Tyson ......doesnt even lay a glove on him right ? Are you still o.k with that one ?

Wilder does beat Tyson. I doubt Tyson would be able to overcome the height disadvantage and Tyson unloaded close range.

You obviously never seen Tyson fight then and watch Wilder fan clips on you tube bc that would be the only way anyone could come to that conclusion !

Please

Joshua is the $ man he can fight whoever the f.uck he wants

He could fight
Ortuz
Wilder
Fury ( if he comes back )
Haye
Povetkin

Whoever else, Stop making excuses because HEARN would rather treat Joshua with kid gloves

[kevin-novice]

It should be DAVID HAYE

[The Time]

Let's see top guys right now are:

Joshua
Wilder
Ortiz
Parker
Pulev
Miller
Whyte
Ruiz
Breazeale


The 3 best obviously are Joshua, Wilder, Ortiz.....not bad

Parker is a belt holder, still has a lot to prove but doesn't pass the eye test.

Miller is unproven, though I think he gets starched once he steps up to one of the big 3.

Some other guys may be on the rise but it may be awhile. Guys like Daniel Dubois have a ways to go. Lawrence Okolie may be a heavyweight eventually.

The big 3 is good enough, let's see what happens with them. My hunch is Joshua will be the last man standing.

-WK retired
-Fury retired
-Povetkin (busted)
-Pulev (decent nothing more)
-Joseph Parker (average)
-Haye (old & cherry picking)
-Ortiz (dangerous but untested)
-Miller (poor mans David Tua)
-Wilder in 10 years has fought how many top 10 HWs?

****ing hell that's an awful crop.... LOL

Of all the names you mentioned; I believe Wilder has the best chance of defeating AJ. He has that rare combination of speed, defense, stamina and power.

Moreover, he doesn't get hit flush with power punches all that much. One reason why is because he often beats his opponents to the punch.

The only advantage I give Anthony Joshua over Deontay Wilder is that he is more of your prototypical boxer/puncher. He is the more fundamentally sound of the two when it comes down to being just a pure boxer.

For example, he has a much better jab than Wilder and perhaps even better footwork. If he can stay out the exchanges than he has a better chance of upsetting Wilder. However if he decides to **** by exchanging, trading punches and slugging toe to toe with him then he loses.

wlad-AJ deserves to be fight of the year so far.

AJ-wilder will be huge.

after that its desolate but lets be real, so has the heavyweight division since the 90s. The biggest fight in the last 17 years was shot mike tyson vs lennox lewis, 15 years ago. Boxing fans all knew mike had no chance but it was hyped well to casuals.

[WhatDisButtonDo]

Heavyweights are less skillful by far. I also wish people would stop putting heavyweight fighters on the p4p list. That's not how it works.

[iamboxing]

The saddest part is that these guys have no skill, C lv bumbs facing D lv opponents and protected by numbers.
Hw skills are lower than ever. Meatheads abusing peds.

I can't think of a worse HW division than this one at any time in the history of boxing.
