    Fair play and plaudits where they're due, Joshua did impress me tonight...or maybe Johnson grossly under performed. Either way, there's precious few HW's who would give him a test now so....have to give him his dues.
    I still think Tfury hands him a schooling but........er......now I'm not quite as sure!

    Povetkin is Wilder's mandatory. Joshua was rated number 6 before tonight's fight by WBC. I think he will be Wilder's next mandatory after Povetkin now. Should be interesting for Wilder.

    Omg relax with Joshua, yeah he is good. But let us see what happens when he meets someone of note, that can take his punches and hits back. The Johnson fight was a complete joke, looks fixed

    Fury gets knocked down in almost all of his fights. His chin is non-existent. He was almost knocked spark out by career cruiserweight Steve Cunningham. Joshua would knock him to Queensland.

    Four sentences here. All of which are false. ALL of which are false.

    Fury is 10x the fighter Joshua is, Joshua is fast becoming a total beast though, fair enough to him, he looks scary. I still want to see him fight a seasoned and hungry vet though a la Price.

    Johnson looked as mobile as a rock in that fight, easy pickings for 'The Don'. Put him in with someone with genuine confidence and it's a different story i.e. a boxing match instead of a big-man contest.

    Fair play to Joshua, I thought he was the 2nd coming of Frank Bruno after the Camarelle fight but he's come on leaps and bounds.:good

    Nothing wrong with a hype train I suppose. A fair chance Wlad will give him a shot after Fury, or sometime in 2016 as the dough is bound to be tempting. Although the Pov/Wilder winner might be better for Joshua.

    Joshua won't be fighting those guys anytime soon. He needs more seasoning and to be tested first.
