Duhaupas has great chin and he pressures his opponets well. He gave Wilder tough night and recently knocked out Helenius. I'd like to see him be Anthony Joshuas first title defence. Do you think AJ could stop Duhaupas?
Duhaupas shelter up from a low output. Wilder is more of a sniper than a heavy handed explosive puncher like Joshua. Joshua would knock out Johann early on.
Think out of the names given, Stiverne and Breazale would be the best 2 to fight in june and november before the mando (chisora, Pulev, Parker, Takam winner) in January. Former world champ and an undeafeted guy, much better that Dupaupas or Molina.
if i was hearn dulhaupus is who i would be putting joshua in with. its a no lose fight he is not going to lose /he might gain rounds that he badly needs and if he blows dulhaupus away he will get props as well. american tv is not that powerful and will not bring that much to the table unless they are paying hearn a few million for a breazale. cant see american tv forking out much for stiverne who is not american.
for some unknown reason the IBF decided to take Stiverne out of their top 15 without even having any fighters in their top 2 spots.
just looked they have put molina in his place smells a bit if we get hearn picking molina for june 25th
Duhaupas, Stiverne, Takam, Molina it doesn't matter, they're getting knocked out. Deal with it. :good
Coming from a KO win against Helenius, Duhaupas would not be a bad choice for voluntary. Plus, given his forward style it could be a good fight to watch. Relatively safe for Joshua too.
Agree here. Duhaupas has style that is easy for AJ. He isn't fast and his chin isn't protected too well. Yes he has very good chin but if you get hit constanlty and cleanly by Joshua it won't last too long
If he wants a real test and respect from me his name is Luis Ortiz. Duhuapas and Stiverne are okay, will defo last mid rounds with a chance of exposing his glass, but will be big outsiders.
I don't think he'd be a stiff test but Duhaupas may take Joshua some much needed rounds and it would be nice to see someone try and pressure him and force AJ onto the back foot more than he has done so far.
The top HWs are from Europe and a fighter not known in America gives Wilder a tough fight and suddenly American fans think there is a new fighter on the scene when in Europe Duhaupas is known and is likely outside the European top 10. In fact Duhaupas would likely be outside the top 5 in the UK alone, but in America he would possibly be at #2. I think Joshua would win early
