    I honestly think Joshua is a level above Whyte now and think it'll show. I get the point, Whyte beat him in the amateurs and Joshua went onto win a gold medal but I personally feel that while is good he is not in Joshua's class.

    I hope I'm wrong and I hope Whyte can pull it off but I just don't see it.

    The only way I can see Whyte winning actually is a KO or perhaps if he lands a very big shot early on that badly rocks Joshua and helps him pile up a big lead but I don't see it.

    Joshua is 19st of lean muscle with 19.5inch biceps (Lennox and Bruno and Tyson had 15inch arms), ripped. It's almost unfair. There should be a super-heavyweight division for him, but it'd be a one-man division.

    Joshua will bowl over everyone. But stringent testing needs to be done very randomly, even out of training camps...

    Mate you are an idiot. I am 5'10", 85kg lean atm. My arms come in well over 16 inches. And you are telling me that the muscular 6'5" and 6'3" frames of Lewis and Bruno came with 15inch arms? And ****ing Tyson? God you are really dumb.

    They spent their time hitting pads and speedbags, not incline dumbell curling, preacher curling, close grip bench pressing and overhead extensioning to failure with heavy weights.

    Longer limb = more space to fill. Joshua has no business developing 20inch arms from (apparently) bodyweight chins and dips alone. Point being he's a genetic freak. He carries 40-50lbs more muscle than the average heavyweight. Do you understand? A bigger muscle is a stronger muscle, and a stronger muscle contracts faster and harder, meaning more speed and power output.

    Being such a genetic freak, I would even wager that he can walk through most heavyweights best shots. It's almost unfair.

    Actually Bruno was a bodybuilder before he started boxing so I'm pretty sure he did all you mentioned before he started hitting the pads. Lewis too given his size increase from Ams through to Pros. Pretty much every Top level LHW boxer and above will have above 15inches arm size. 15 inches is not big and not even remotely impressive. I would bet my life that Lewis and Bruno both at 17+inch arms, they were big kunts.
