    After seeing the semi finals, I am extremely impressed by Joshuas performance. I think he'll beat camarrelle

    But it made me realise how good Savon is. Pretty much schooled Joshua, which I don't think anyone else in the draw could do.

    I think he's the best super heavyweight in the world. What do you guys think?

    I think that him v Joshua should have been the final really. Very fluid style for a superheavy you can see he works on a different level to everybody else in the competition.

    It wasn't a robbery it was a close fight, and Joshua wasn't at his best that fight put him in the final with him I think the performance would be different

    Really hope some US promoter taps Savon up and convinces him to defect and turn pro.

    This also shows the Joshua hate on here after the first round was absurd.

    Savon is extremely talented, he's certainly top 3.

    Savon is very good, but he didn't beat Joshua. It was close, but you'd have to win the fight to claim to be the best. Top 3 might prove to be a fair assessment but a bit of a stretch considering how he has performed at world level so far.

    Yes.
     
  11. I think the way amateur boxing works with only 3 rounds, quick turn arounds etc anyone in the top 5 can beat anyone else on their day

    Seeing as Majidov ****ing dealt with him and exposed his glass jaw at last years worlds I'd say it's more a case of him having a good style for the bigger, slower guys. What a shock!

    Cammarelle, Majidov, Joshua. That's the top 3 taking everything into account IMO.
