    Probably would to be honest. I think Joshua would do well early like Bowe did, he's big strong and pretty good on the inside like Bowe, but eventually he tires and Holyfield takes over, too durable, too fast, too much pressure, plus those headbutts lol.

    Joshua can hang with any those guys..he just doesn't beat them at their best.

    The Commander stops him with a trap uppercut whilst in a clinch.

    Probably. But I'm also pretty sure it would be changed into a NC after.

    I get the arguments with the first 3. But Golota honestly I think would mentally implode the moment he walked into Wembley stadium. He'd get nervous and fidgety and wouldn't know what he's doing. AJ would knock him out either early like Lennox or Golota does something stupid and he gets DQd.

    The fight doesn't happen. Evan Field never gets past contemporary PED tests. If he does that celebrated stamina may not be as good as we remember.

    I don't think so, Evander couldn't knock out a 43 year old Larry Holmes in 1992.

    A 43 year old Larry Holmes had a better chin than a 29 year old Anthony Joshua.

    Holyfield, Bowe, Tyson? Probably. But 8-0 Golota gets demolished in 1.

    That's a distinct possibility, but ts also a distinct possibility that he'd KO AJ before having to resort to that type of BS, remember, he hadn't lost yet in 92.

    Why? Because he was KO'd while doped up and near death from seizure inducing lidocaine? Golota's chin was decent, it wouldn't have been a blowout by any means.
