    Compared to other British boxers it doesn't stack up too well.

    Froch, Lewis etc have a fat superior resume.

    My enter key works fine... you get that the whole vibe I wanted to give off with that post is a run on breathless filibuster like ridiculously over the top word salad right? And hitting the enter key would completely undermine that by breaking the flow. :facepalm:

    So one has to pick a boxer from another division and another who has been retired for 21 years, to make a case for how Joshua´s resume is poor.
    How about comparing Joshua to those who are fighting now, in his division? If Joshua´s resume at heavyweight is poor, then who are the ones with the good resumes?

    Like I said, it doesn't stack up well.

    And whose does? :lol:
    God, I ****ing love the Joshua resume bashing here. It´s just pure hypocrisy. No one is even able to articulate who in the division has a good division or better than Joshua´s.
    The most someone managed is to say that Fury and Usyk have better resumes. If only 2 guys have better resumes, and Joshua has a poor one, then wtf have rest of the division done?

    I haven't bashed his resume, I said it doesn't stack up, which you agreed with.

    But you're asking a very strange question, AJ is one of the standout heavyweights of the past decade, his resume should be superior to most others in the division.

    To answer you're extremely weird question though

    Usyk and Fury have a better resume. Parker has a very similar resume. The rest, as you should expect have a worse resume.

    I guess I don't understand your overall point. AJ does not have that impressive a resume, and most other heavyweights have a resume which is even less impressive. Where is the hypocrisy?

    I am talking about in comparison to those who had their careers at the same time as him. Joshua constantly fought the top contenders yet his resume is labeled as poor. Yet he has steadily fought more top contenders than anyone else.

    Watching it back, the only way I can describe it is a clobbering. It was an absolute clobbering.

    No one thinks Wilder or anyone who's worse than AJ has a better resume.

    But when all is said and done, does AJ have that impressive a resume? No. He doesn't.

    But he has a good resume for his time. Yet so many, so often say that his resume is poor. You don´t really see that with other heavyweights.
    Joshua is the one being held to a ridiculously high standard.

    You won't remember this but when AJ first came along he was touted as the next great HW. So he gets compared accordingly. Basically they hold him to a higher standard than you do, which is fine, it's a subjective sport. He wants to be held to a high standard.

    Hrgovic ended up doing better than we thought considering he landed a lot more power shots and more cleanly than AJ landed.
