    After Wilder, AJ and Fury have somewhat passed their prime, and the younger guns are starting to take over the belts, which of these fighters do you see dominating the division and getting the best out of the other mentioned fighters?

    Efe Ajagba
    Filip Hrgovic
    Nathan Gorman
    Daniel Dubois
    Tony Yoka
    Adam Kownacki
    Ivan Dychko


    Dillian Whyte
    Jarrell Miller
    Joe Joyce

    I understand the last 3 are slightly older, but they have yet to mix at the top level.

    Personally, I am favouring Efe Ajagba to turn up with the best career and destroy the rest mentioned here.

    Joe Joyce is 34 this year. He’s hardly the next generation of heavyweight.

    The worst thing about this current crop is that apart from fury - wilder the so called elite of heavyweights are miles away from fighting each other . Not even worthy to be named in the same bracket as Ali foreman Frazier or even Tyson Holyfield Lewis . I reckon this current crop will prob get 3 fights tops with each other

    From a fans point of view, it is disgusting that the top 3 have so far refused to fight each other, and the only fight there has been between them (Wilder vs Fury), absolutely warranted a rematch. Whoever you seen as the winner, it was so close that a rematch had to take place. The fans are being cheated when the top 3, who are currently way above the rest of the division are avoiding each other.

    I think with the next crop this won't happen. I have a feeling that they will just fight each other. In a strange twist of events, either top 3 fighters can be considered the no. 1 fighter and therefore they all refuse to compromise. Fury with being the lineal champ, winning the belts and never losing them in the ring. AJ with unifying the belts quickly and quickly building a good resume on paper. Wilder with being the long reigning champion, devastating KO power.

    Before these 3 fighters, regardless if HW was exciting or boring (Klitschko era). at least everyone was fighting each other. Now, it just seems so distant to have the top guys face one another or there being an undisputed champion.

    What were you trying to say here???
    Dw and fury have unfinished business but I believe after fighting Dw for 12 rounds fury learned Dw is too dangerous and he backed out of the rematch.

    Dw and fury were "negotiating" the rematch but I knew fury wouldn't ever fight Dw again. He knows how lucky and once in a lifetime lucky he got by squeaking by DW.

    Fury succeeded in only keeping Dw at bay but that also kept fury at bay. Fury had zero offense during that entire fight..

    This schooling BS is a joke, fury DID LESS VS Dw than VS wlad. One would think that's impossible which it is never mind Dw flattened him a couple separate times.

    It's like if Dw doesn't just destroy his opponent, it means he's losing said rounds. I don't understand the thinking..

    Succeeding in not engaging is not winning to me. Every Dw fight so many on here claim he's being "out boxed" and being beaten.

    Seriously, many claim he was losing to Washington, never mind Washington landing nothing truly effective throughout the entire fight.

    That polish guy some on here claim he was out boxing Dw never mind dw was the ONLY one landing anything.

    Give me 1 (ONE) round that showed fury as being the superior fighter VS Dw, should be easy because fury schooled dw, BS

    Dw is held to a different standard like fmj was different, the greats are always held to unattainable standards, I guess Dw has proven to be a great, still the scoring of his fights doesn't change, still scored just like the rest

    Adam Kownacki is older than Joshua. You could class most of those guys from this generation.

    The point I’m making is these guys should be chomping at the bit to fight each other not haggling over percentages. Do you remember when Tyson beat Trevor b after that fight he cleaned the division against tucker and smith and then did spinks for good measure . In my eyes wilder is a dangerous fighter who had at least fought fury . Do you think that ali Frazier and fireman avoided each other NO they wanted greatness which they got . These 3 need to get it on this year and the next because time will run out on them all when usyk does the lot of them

    With some hard work and some tweaking I reckon Ajagba and Dubois have what it takes to dominate the future of the division, the rest I don't believe will amount to anything significant when it comes to winning fights against the creme of the crop.

    Lol what are you talking about? DW and TF fought each other so obviously they haven't refused. AJ and DW are obviously going fight, money wasnt there yet but it's approaching quickly. I think one more fight each and the money/timing going be perfect. Then they will probably have a triology and you and the public will be asking by the 3rd "Do we need a 3rd fight?".

    The Brezeale fight was the right move for DW after TF made the right move and signed with ESPN for a boatload of money. Got his mando out of the way and gave himself highlight KO vs a credible HW who fought AJ. Let these dudes make some money the fights are going happen. I bet all 3 fight each other 3 times. They need each other.

    In the meantime we might get Whyte V Fury & DW vs Ortiz 2 & AJ vs Usyk. Those are all fun fights.

    Dychko will rule 100%. The guy is 6‘9 and has decent footwork. If he will stay active he will surpass wilder and fury

    Most of the guys you have listed are still going to be in Joshuas era.

    Here's the 2 guys you NEED to be a watch for ,and it's only these two for the thread topic.

    1. Vlad Sirenko
    2. Sonny Conto

    One of these guys takes over ,probably Conto as he's a 2025 agenda.

    Ali vs Frazier was years apart and Frazier didn't fight Foreman until 3 years into that era.

    your doing a double standard. On top of that Wilder nor Fury was around in that era asking for 60% or turning down 100 million.


    Be wary of FIREMAN as well , everyone avoided that guy and for good reason. ....:couch:

    Their power, length, explosiveness, athleticism, killer instinct and Dubois has very good fundamentals, like compared to current contenders VERY ****ING GOOD fundamentals and shot selection.

    Gorman is a hype job and you'll see, just like Hughie.

    Athleticism encompasses all the attributes you mentioned. No need to embellish the sentence by making it longer, just to give the impression that they are better than what they really are. I personally dont think they are what you are making them out to be.

    They will be exposed, and you will have to pray for another hype job like Dillan Whyte to come about. I think they are on roids also, Im suspicious, you should be too.
