    Lots has been mentioned and rightly so about AJ and moving up in class slowly but from the top10 below who, if any, do you think he could beat now?

    1: Wlad Klitschko (Ukraine), 61-3, IBF/WBO/WBA

    2: Alexander Povetkin (Russia), 26-1

    3: Kubrat Pulev (Bulgaria), 19-0

    4: Bermane Stiverne, 23-1-1

    5: Tomasz Adamek (Poland), 49-2

    6: Tyson Fury (GB), 22-0

    7: Chris Arreola, 36-3

    8: Robert Helenius (Finland), 19-0

    9: Deontay Wilder, 30-0

    10: Bryant Jennings, 18-0

    He has a punchers chance against all of them but i wouldn't make him favorite over any of them. Hes maybe 50/50 with Adamek because of the size difference. Joshua is very raw

    :lol: He's 5-0 against bums. He's never boxed past the 2nd round in the pros.

    Would lose badly to everyone in that list.. He needs to win British Title this year couple of defences then Commonwealth then European. 2-3 year down the line he will be ready to be in that list.

    Its a joke that people think Joshua beats all these guys so easily when hes fought no one as a pro.

    Yes he is a very good prospect and a Gold Medallist but his chin or heart hasnt been tested yet and has he even been past 3 rounds?

    As of yet he hasn't proved that he can beat any of those guys, wait for him to step up before making threads like this....
