15-0 vs Whyte 16-0 vs Chisora 17-0 vs Teper - European Championship 18-0 vs Thompson or Jennings 19-0 vs Ruslan Chagaev - WBA Title 20-0 vs Wilder or Povetkin - WBC Title 21-0 vs Wlad BTW I don't think he can or will beat Wlad, this is just a potential 'route' for Joshua. I think you can probably throw Fury in there as a potential opponent once he loses to Wlad, or even Haye if he makes a comeback. Thoughts?
If he fights Vlad it wont be for another 2 years absolute minimum more likely 3 ...IF Vlad is still around good chance they will both dodge each other
Hmm not sure he will be fighting as regular as he is at the moment you might findhe starts giving himself slightly longer camps as he steps up his competition.... also dont think he will looking at someone of Vlads level in only 6 fights. I also get the feeling that neither will want that fight (just now but that may sway more towards Vlad not wanting it in a cpl years time as he regresses and Joshua improves)
Maybe something like this: Dec 2015: Whyte Spring 2016: Cunningham Summer 2016: Teper Late 2016: Parker Spring 2017: Stiverne Summer 2017: Wilder Late 2017: Fury 2018: Wlad
More realistic schedule, tho i doubt he will be in with Parker ..... by that time it be names he needs and Parker wont be huge then in terms of popularity and could be a very high risk/reward fight. replace that witha jounrey man between Teper and Stiverne would make more sense IMO
He won't get to Wilder unless they can continue to stage manage his defenses, as soon as he faces anyone of any ability he's gone!
I think it will be relatively low risk. I do not see Parker being much of a threat, but yes it could easily be a Thompson or a soft European title defence. Maybe even a Briggs for giggles.
hmm i dunno the guy is still very early in his career he will improve a lot i think.. You maybe right as we have no idea how much he will improve in that time. could be a lucas Browne sorta guy / Thomson as you said
yeah i agree hence why i said sorta journey man easy fight between the euro title (teper) and then moving up to Stivenre according to TBooze's post
Whyte- December Wach- April 2016 Chisora- July 2016 Teper- November 2016 Jennings- February 2017 Pulev- June 2017 Weakest champion then in October/November 2017 Think some of you guys are unrealistic in him taking all of the most difficult fights possible up to the end of 2016.
