    Didn't look as good as I thought he would and had luck on his side, but ah well, let's hope he turns pro straight away. Would be hard for him to resist.

    Expect him to follow the Great Audley in his carrier.

    He is young and has potential, but has a long way to go. People saying he is the next Lennox Lewis before the Olympics even started and hyping him up now are what turn people against him. He has a bright future, can't say he will or won't make it at this stage, time will tell.

    People need to realise that Joshua is only 22 and not only that, is inexperienced with less than 50 amateur fights. For him to even compete in the World Championships and Olympics isn't be an impressive feat, but to pick up silver and then gold? He's possibly got 8 years to progress until he even touches his prime at 30 years old.

    Very few amateurs have success like he's had at such a young age. Even fewer do it with similar levels of experience. Joshua is a very raw fighter but he has serious potential.
