    No one. I am not a Joshua fan either but he would stop Hughie.

    You'd have a point where it not for the fact Hughie has turned down Joshua multiple times.

    Too early for Hughie, needs to get more rounds with stiffer competition.

    He's been having health complications has he not? Doesn't seem fair to rush him back if he really has been ill.

    Healthy or not, AJ starches him. Why? Because he doesn't have the power to get Joshua's respect.

    It seems like Brook he only gets ill when the stiff competition is on the horizon lol.

    He was fine when they turned down the fight previously and instead Joshua fought Martin.

    KO'ing Hughie is a sure fire way of getting tyson in the ring asap especially if he ko's him in spectacular fashion. imagine the twitter trash talking from tyson leading up to that fight.

    No way would Joshua box Fury in the next 12 months.

    Kid is only 21... Why does he need to be rushed? He's already faced and beaten some live opponents sure.. But there are still holes in his game that need to be ironed out, not to mention his health issues.

    Oddly enough his resume is more or less on par with Joshuas... And he's gotten more rounds in, but yeah he isn't ready for Joshua atm.

    He's been out a lot of that 4 years with illness. Already faced and beaten some top 30-40 guys. Think he should float around there for a while, with the occasional step up. Anyways.... There's no need to rush a 21 year old with 20 fights. He's a baby as far as that division is concerned. We probably won't see how good he really is for another 4-5 years at least.

    Yet people had different demands on AJ, why because he's 25/26?

    The op needs to stfu and get off that ghetto boys ****.

    Start asking why Joshua is looking to fight cripples who are in no state to fight. Meanwhile fighters like Wilder and Parker are chewing at the bit to get their hands on him to put him in a coma.
