    2 losses now and could be 3 after the rematch. AJ doesn't want to retire anytime soon, so maybe he'll rack up more losses and turn into a journeyman like Delboy Chisora

    He'll always get money fights with plenty of UK names plus Wilder, and long as fights are exciting, who cares about wins and losses.

    He is not 35, he can still be a champion after Usyk retires two years later.

    Nah he's got a couple of more big fights in him win or loose. He has an Usyk rematch, the Fury fight still generates money, Wilder V AJ for a shot at who ever holds all the belts or Tyson would be interesting.

    He might loose his next 2 and if he does he might think about walking away. Made loads of $, won big fights, lost big fights. Plenty of fights haven't done what Joshua has. A top fighter of his generation - just maybe not a great one.

    This a ******* level thread, it just sucks, people like you whine why the best don't fight the best and when they pick up a loss, this is what we get to see.

    He's already beaten enough quality fighters to prove that's not the case. He's beaten EVERYONE he's faces, besides Usyk.

    Hardly a poor resume.

    No, Joshua is still a top three fighter in the division till proven otherwise.

    Whole thread looks like a windup created by an alt anyway.

    Yeah. Right now barring Usyk and Fury, he would be a big favorite against one else in the division.

    Damn. No wonder the best don't fight the best. You get **** on for everything if you lose. I never want to see a post like this in someones post history and they complain about elite fighters not fighting the best.

    Naw.
    Chisora is a gatekeeper type boxer.
    After he had lost vs 40 y.o uncle Vitali he get fight vs Haye, both fights well paid.
    Then again vs Fury, then 2 fights vs Whyte and a lot of good fights.
    Last outings were vs Parker and before this vs Usyk ( both of them IRL had get something more than 2m GBP for this ).

    Nah. There's only 1 other heavyweight I'm convinced would beat him and 2 or 3 more who have a good chance.

    He was outbox by a superior boxer. Losing to the best boxer in your division doesn’t not mean your career is over.

    No, he is young and he is a tip 3 HW.
    Usyk is just better than most people thought
