    Joshua beat Wlad who was a great fighter with a major weakness that he covered up for years.
    Likely Joshua will go into a defensive shell and win the rematch by UD.
    Nobody fighting now at HW is anywhere near an ATG.
    The last ATG was Lennox & you'd have to go back to Tyson & Ali before that.

    It’s not a double standard. Gonzalez was trash.

    The point is, Bowe had a contract to fight Lewis, and didn't go through with it, so how do we know he would have fought Mercer? It's all hypothetical.

    Dimitrenko and 2019 ? Lmfao. Ruiz sucks. Miller and Ortiz should've beaten him

    You’re big mad with the fake ass “lmfao.” The only guy to have an easy night with him to date is Joshua and only other guy to get a W was an undefeated champion.

    Mad because I'm laughing at a citation of shot Alexander Dimitrenko as justification for his ranking pre joshua ? He sucks, Miller beat his ass and Ruiz is proven to be inferior to dinosaur Ortiz outside of the chin department.

    If Ruiz fought the entire top 10 he would beat no one outside of aj who loses to several. Hrgovic and Miller did better against Dubois, aj could lose to any big puncher at this point

    Binman Bowe's resume consists primarily American domestic levels, a very good win over CW Holyfield, and what should be a brace of defeats to Golota.

    He barely fought any big punching big men, He said Hide was the hardest puncher he fought.

    Anthony Joshua is a bum, absolutely humiliated in America by a fat useless american who has done nothing since. Made aj quit in his corner

    Holyfield rates Bowe as the best he faced. And Holyfield fought some good ones.

    Joshua isn't even in the conversation with fighters like that.
    Anthony Joshua would be better compared to Herbie Hide.

    Fair points. My point is that Ferguson was worthy of his title shot

    Oh.

    Yeah, he earned it, but let's be fair that there had to be trickerations afoot to get him in that spot. I like Ferguson, but he was never a world-level player.

    Very true- a modern boxer in the mold of Bruce Seldon.
