    If he got all the belts and the lineage in the next couple years, plus a few top contenders, he could match Tysons prime. Purely on achievemeny that is if not quality of opposition

    Tyson did do a bit more post prime as well though even if it wasnt as great.

    Ali. Yeah. No.

      Seems awfully premature to be compared to Tyson let alone Ali.
      Wlad was basically Josh's first proper win. Tytson reigned for 4 years or so beating everything out of sight.
      So josh needs to seem unbeatable for next 4 years to be comparable to tyson

            A long way to prove to be an ATG.

            If he keeps winning and building the long winning streak whilst looking unstoppable he would be considered in the HOF definitely - but ATG? very hard title to accomplish, you've got to have the record, stats and majority of the fans acknowledging you to be an ATG.

              It’s not what you do. It’s how you do it.

              Lewis and Tyson would have obliterated Joshua. They paid there dues in the ring in a way guys like Joshua can only fantasize about doing.

                Prime example of the delusional young people we have today. His best win is against a 40 + year old who didn't even put up a fight.
                What has Wilder and Parker done yet to use their names to propel this kids status anywhere near Tyson let alone Ali?

                He sounds like the typical boxing/scene fan, oblivious to the sports history.

                  Comments Thread For: Joshua Hopes Wilder, Parker Wins Gets His Name Near Ali, Tyson

                  As reported last week on BoxingScene.com, a heavyweight world title unification between Britain's Anthony Joshua and US rival Deontay Wilder moved a step closer after promoter Eddie Hearn, who handles Joshua, sat down with Wilder's managers Al Haymon and Shelly Finkel to discuss a 2018 encounter. WBA, IBF and IBO world champion Joshua and the WBC title-holder Wilder want the match-up as part of efforts to unify the heavyweight division.

                    Ali beat 4 gold medalists over his career, and a another 3 or 4 absolutely elite guys. Idk about that.

                    Tyson? I could definitely see that

                      Lol

                      Even Tyson knew who the king was when he and Ali spoke.

                      Like he said there's a time when every head should bow Ali is king.

                      That was from a prime Tyson, Aj is delusional lol he has a loss coming up for him soon, I dunno just seems inevitable with that stamina and chin just a matter of who.
