    lol come on? Mendleson? Yeah he has visible abs but so does Pricey on the weigh in today... you think these guys are in the same fat percentage as Joshua? You got to be kidding me. Abs show at 15 percent mate.

    Joshua is well below that.

    Do you genuinely believe Mendleson is as low as Joshua body fat level? Because Mendleson for sure is roided up, and doesn't need to get tested.

    No, what I meant is, that you can still have abs while having a normal or high BMI. People pretend Joshua is a bodybuilder and stuff but he is not even close to being someone who can go the stage to pose. He just works out very hard, there is no proof about him using steroids. His tests were clean.

    The Hodgetwins are clean as well and have a more impressive physique.

    I am inclined to believe that Joshua is genetically gifted with his phsique, yeah he trains hard, and that helps too... but some africans are genetically big and ripped like that without having to do much.. I personally know many.

    With the amount of cardio and training he does as a champion, even I think 5500 calories is too little for an 18 stone man at 6 ft 6 and low body fat.

    I eat 3300 a day and I struggle to put weight, with how much I train, which is probably 1/4 of what Joshua trains.

    Oh I agree - I feel sorry for humanity that people have to hate on Joshua's physique and call him roided up, do they somehow think that with three belts .. he isn't getting the same tests as all the other guys?

    He gets tested randomly every 10 days, the guy is clean, it's just paranoid to think he isn't clean.

    And why hate on someone's physique?? People are so low. **** this world.

    Close to nothing...I guess it is quite safe to assume...

    Povetkin's just old. He's a full fledged heavyweight and always has been.

    Povetkin at 25 years old weighing 223 lbs in his debut 14 years ago. Just 1lb more than he weighed in today, but today he's almost 40.

    Povetkin looks soft an natural. He's 40, giving up a lot of height and reach. Joshua got those 3d delts and full of dat dere cell tech. Povetkin might be in for a rough night.

    thats because of the training for strength, which boxers do not do. boxers do not have distended bellies, there whole training regimen is designed for the opposite effect.
