    Yeh but I think most people forget that Joshua is the same age as Tyson e.g 24 nearly 25. People keep saying not to rush Joshua but want a kid who is 19 to rush his way up. Makes no sense right now but in a year or two it will.

    Hughie said he wanted to be the youngest world champ ever. He brought it on himself.

    They have both got big potential so it can only be a good thing. Could be a really big fight in 3-4 years.

    I want to see AJ vs Dillian Whyte while he's on his domestic come up. There's obviously needle there and we might see some of that polished media persona wear away in the build up.

    I like him and hope he goes on to dominate but I dont want some media savvy robotic press conference every fight

    Skelton and sprott at this stage if their careers are not any more dangerous than the guys he's been facing we just know who they are... That being said i have no problem with this level of comp for the first ten fights.

    47 year old Matt Skelton? Depressing

    Give 42 year old Audley Harrison a call, he'll take it... 2 gold medal winners doing battle... YES HE CAN :rofl

    Yeah he did, but I guess he already left that idea behind him now, having less than a year left.

    But Joshua should fight a guy that will give him rounds. The sell point for his last opponent was that he lasted 9 against a thoroughly underperforming Chisora. Well knowing he was KO1'd multiple times before.
    Rounds is what this guy needs.

    I don't get the hate for Skelton. He was the guy that put an end to Dallas's boxing hopes. He's a decent stepping stone veteran that can weed out the dross.
