Do you think Anthony Joshua would be a top 10 heavyweight boxer if he competed in the 1970s?

    Fantastic post, couldn't have said it better.

    It's crazy to see how much delusional hate AJ gets.
    I wouldn't even consider myself a fan, buy I still recognise that he has outstanding fundamentals.
    Very good boxer in any era.

    How can he regress in skills under McCracken? McCracken's always trained him.

    No Sims was the main coach until around either Dillian or Wlad. McCraken was still with Team GB as the head coach then he stepped down and took over as AJ's head coach.

    McCracken trained him for the Olympics and still had his hand in as 'performance director' until Molina, when he took over full time. Only reason he wasn't Joshua's cornerman was because he was still training Carl Froch. In fact Joshua's fight with Matt Legg, his sixth professional fight, was on the Froch v Groves II undercard.
