    Wlad was nowhere near a pound for pound list when he lost to AJ. That thought is insane.

    A bit too harsh on the Wlad fight. Wlad gave a great performance and was still clearly among the top of the division. (but not the top guy).
    But i fully agree with the last part. Joshua has a good resume, but far from P4P.

    Many boxing 'experts' on this forum had Wlad and Povetkin beating Joshua. Now all of a sudden having them on his record is a reason why his resume is thin. Make your mind up guys. Just admit you don't like Joshua personally and that's why you can't give him credit.

    Yes definitely the best resumè at HW. And one the best in boxing.

    Off the top my head, I'd say Canelo has the best resumè in boxing.

    Can't agree there, he should be 0-4 against the best fighters he's fought.

    I suppose the fact that he's part-time these days makes it easy to forget

    Totally disagree, Wlads performance was excellent. Technique, heart you name it. World class. You can't compare to Fury as styles make fights. Wlad beats any other heavyweight on that night IMHO, even Wilder or even Fury. People keep hating on Joshua (resume is completely ridiculous and sick at this point) but the only guys that can beat him (other than hasim rahman punchers chance-ie Ortiz/Whyte etc) is Wilder if he catches him or Fury as he's so damn awkward. Don't hate appreciate. For what its worth I think he annihilates Wilder ( of courser I may be wrong) just look at fights against Molina/Spilka/Ortiz etc after 40 fights and then compare them to AJ with half that number. (PS I'm not into this US/UK bull**** I love all 3 top heavyweights, all of them, just wanna see them compete multiple times like the great eras of Ali/foreman/frazier/nortpn etc)

    Oh please..

    So take a look at the ranked heavyweights with all the governing bodies, who on that list should he have beaten in just 22 fights? If he had say a 40 pro fights and had fought 7 "so-called world title" fights (it's not so-called.. it really is 7 world title fights!), then perhaps your argument might make some sense.

    He has the best resume in heavyweight boxing. No if's buts and maybes about it. If you can't see that then you are simply a biased hater.

    You don't get how a pfp list works. You probably think Povetkin was better at 39 bc he performed better against Joshua than Wlad.
