Could Anthony Joshua defeat Evander Holyfield or Riddick Bowe in their primes?

OMG what are you on about!!

Holyfields combined speed and pure aggression, as well as his punch power alone would stop Josh, and more importantly his experience and proven appetite for a "Fight" would see him through no problem.

And as for Bowe, forget counters he wouldn't need to worry about them as Josh would be backed up very very quickly round after round and just simply pummeled.

In fact I would have Golota beating him as well.

 

Hell no.

 

Did you play the barber in "Coming to America" by any chance!!

 

These are probably going to come up fairly soon so I'll preempt them first ...

In a fight between prime Ali and Yoda ... would Yoda be disqualified if he used his Jedi mind powers? Serious question.

Who would win a fight between prime Audley Harrison and the version of Wlad that fought Joshua, if Audley had an extra arm and Wlad only had one leg? (I'm inclined to go with Wlad by early brutal knockout.)

Would the Whyte - Browne fight have been a different outcome if Browne had been permitted to fight in the nude? (I'm inclined to go with Browne by thin UD or SD - close fight.)

 

Bowe is a pretty tough guy with power but he did have ****ty defense. He got clobbered twice by Golota right off his Holyfield 3 win. I’m not buying the excuses. Golota proved to be a disappointment so it doesn’t reflect well on Bowe. I guess I still favor Bowe. But his opposition wasn’t anything special either and he rarely fought someone bigger than him. His best wins were against a smaller heavyweight and the same one roided up.

 

AJ has no stamina and british chin, his power is overrated , I don’t see him lasting more than 8 rounds with holy and prob even less with bowe.

 

And Lewis was better than Bowe or Holyfield, so I think AJ would last
about as long as Michael Grant. Wilder too. Fury would go 12 but lose too.

 

Joshua the bum wouldn't see R6 with either fighter.

 

Bowe in peak physical and mental condition? I'd rate him the best of these three. Easily

 

AJ couldn’t toy with anyone, he doesn’t have the skill level. I’d give Rahman a good chance as well, he had the power to put Joshua away.

 

No. Levels!
