    I believe only Tyson Fury beats Joshua

    Fury is in his own league. First Ruiz fight was a fluke and Joshua proved to be clearly better than Ruiz in second fight.

    There is nobody else around who stands a chance. Usyk is good, but Joshua stops him, because he simply breaks him down. But Fury beats Joshua clearly, it is not even a competition. Fury is too fast for Joshua. That is what I think.

    they are around the same level. dont be fooled by the wilder win, if joshua got his hands on bum squad he'd have beat him just as easy. that guy was useless, i dont know how anyone could watch his fights and not think he was an accident waiting to happen.

      It’s a very interesting fight, I feel AJ takes it with brute strength. But I could still see Fury putting a clinic on too as he raises his game up for better opposition.

        I think there are others who could pull a Ruiz on him on a good night but Fury is probably the only one who could beat him consistently.

          I always felt AJ would've knocked Wilder out. I think Fury just has the edge on range and footwork.Joshua may have sorted out hes stamina now.He looked hesitant against Parker ,who stayed mobile and looked to counter.I think Fury does enough to out point him.

            Fury won't dare walk through Joshua. He could get inside against Wilder easily because he isn't much of a boxer. Against Joshua I think he'll take too many heavy shots. Joshua is the best boxer he will have faced, plus he's big and he can ****.

            Wilder was always made for Fury.
            I believe Fury is made for Joshua.
            Still 50/50 on a Wilder v Joshua fight but I edge towards Joshua.

              He loses to Joyce, Usyk, Wilder and Fury.

              Don't think he is anywhere near top 2 by any stretch. If you've been in the ring I can almost guarantee you'll notice nothing remotely special about his boxing. No standout abilities which make him a particular threat to any truly world class fighter. I actually think Ortiz gives him a tough fight too and then probably loses due to old age. We will see tonight, but I have never and will never be convinced by him. Just a slightly better Bruno who has had all the help in the world and fawning public to ensure he always has the upper hand. His defeat over Wlad was his most impressive win but then I dont consider Wlad a particularly amazing heavyweight either. Hencr why you cant think of a single standout name he beat other than David Haye.

                Fury is a level above AJ

                AJ can barely punch without setting his feet. Don’t be fooled by his running tactics in the Ruiz rematch. He isn’t going to be able to do that against Fury who has a longer reach, is bigger, better footwork, better boxing IQ etc

                Once Joshua is in with a top fighter like Fury, he will be looking like the big stiff telegraphed robot that he is, fighting in straight lines.

                Tailor made for Fury.

                Usyk still probably gives AJ big problems, stylistically at least.

                Wilder would flatten AJ. AJ is a big static target, exactly what Wilder looks good against.

                Joyce could arguably be too tough for him and grind him down. AJ has spat out his gumshield and quit before. I don’t think Joyce is a man to fight if you have that quit in you.

                  Joshua isn't even better than Wlad and he waltzed to victory. Joshua isn't mobile enough and doesn't move his head. These are just disaster zone characteristics for someone going up against a defensive savant like Fury. His shot selection and inside fighting is about his only attributes that afford him any chance and, even then, Fury has arguably shown better skill there too.

                  You have to be a legit ****head fanboy to think Joshua is anything better than a 70/30 against Fury.

                    And Haye wasn’t exactly a great heavyweight. I think Haye was an top Cruiserweight though.
