    Eric Molina I reckon. Should give him some good rounds and a chance to make right from what went wrong from the last fight without taking too much of a risk. I see Duhaupus as a step up but I guess the KTFO risk isn't too high.

    I believe it's supposed to be Chisora. Wich is the right step up atm.

    needs someone with a very good ingame and go into the fight with a plan to keep him at range.
    get the jab working keep him out and not to get dragged into a brawl.
    If he had boxed last night he could have kept him at range for 12 and won a wide points but he got dragged into a brawl

    Classy Fred Kassi
    Sherman Tank Williams
    Hughie Fury

    any of those three would be good

    Duhaupas, Chisora, Molina all good names and clearly the next step up for Joshua.

    He performed well but displayed the weaknesses I already knew him to have. These guys can help work on his issues.

    Good calls, although I don't think Hughie-AJ will happen, not just yet.

    Would be a bad idea. Haye would knock him out with a fast counter punch.

    Chisora. That's natural progression.

    chisora ticks all the boxes, he's not afraid of losing, has a good chin, from matchrooms point of view he's marketable so the fight will be big money.

    I't will probably be Chisora, although I'd rather see a Chisora-Whyte match.
    It would be nice to see him fight Fred Kassi, who is a good opponent for him at this stage.
