    Given Haye is past his prime and been inactive for a while

    Could Joshua take him out ?

    very hard to answer as AJ;s opposition has not tested him, and haye's been out for about 3 years.

    I'd guess haye, he's got proven power at world level. and has decent body movement.

    No I don't think Aj beats even price yet. I hope he goes on to dominate the division in years to come just got a feeling if someone like price lands end of story. I would imagine he stops Johnson next then I hope they put him in with a chisora.....after that british, commonwealth and euro belts.

    I think AJ brutalises Price. And I like David. It's just that he isn't what he was 3-5 years ago.

    when you think of Britain's long list of HW hopefuls it is much easier to list the Real Deals, that were True Contenders and Champions, and among that handful...

    Tommy Farr
    Bruce Woodc oc k
    Henry Cooper
    Joe Bugner
    Frank Bruno
    LL (Canadian)
    David Haye

    well Joshua IS AMONG THEM and WILL RULE the division...

    as long as he isn't met with the usual _ull _hit of postponed fights, cancelled bouts, money arguments and ALL the BS that is otherwise translates to Ducking & Avoidance, Feared Fighter.

    He IS Britain's Best and the Real McCoy and WILL DO IT!
