    He does seem a bit lost and risk adverse. His confidence has gone. He needs another can before fighting the big boys again.

    Wilder would be a good matchup

    Wilder by KO imo

    He has lost his killer instinct.... Either get it back and fight Fury or Wilder...

    With no killer instict he should retire..... And become a body builder

    Wilder. If he loses, which I think he will, it's all over.

    Wilder or Fury would be my top choices but I doubt either will happen even if AJ and Hearn want those fights.

    A fight with Joyce would be my 3rd choice. Joyce's stock is high, an all British clash between them would be a big fight in the UK and get a lot of hype and if Joshua win would give him his best win in years.

    I'd like to see him fight Gasiev tbh. AJ is done at the elite level.

    Wilder Vs. Usyk is a bigger fight now (because of Usyk).
    Wilder Vs. AJ was a fight for the undisputed HW champion a few years ago (2018-2020). The fight didn't happen back then, and I'd like to get some answers from the past.

    After his last perfomance I don't think he could beat anyone oft his list lmao.

    They could put him in with 25:0 Marcin Siwy to gain more confidence

    Joshua's done. And he knows it.

    Him calling out Fury is for the same reason.

    Joshua knows he needs to get a huge payday soon, before he's matched with another middle level fighter, and knocked out/beaten soundly, and his chance of a big cheque is forever gone.

    Sanchez, Hrgovic, Bakole. Feed him to the more fresh and hungry guys.

    There's no way Eddie is risking the Wilder fight now lol.

    Monday morning he'll start hyping up Joshua V Whyte 2. Just watch.
