Great win by Joshua, but the top heavyweights are Wilder and Fury.

I think you guys should stop talking about Fury as a contender. He is done. He has an obvious problem with his thyroid. His voice is changed and he is probably 350 lbs. The voicechanger is not a good sympthom at all. Also Fury doesn't have the power to bother Joshua, so no thanks.

 

Exactly my thoughts.

Wilder only becomes a top HW when he fights one. Until then he is an unproven challenger- and his strap is garbage.

Wlad, Fury, AJ and even Bellew have faced and beaten other top HWs.

AJ is now the MAN. To become the man, you have to now come through AJ.

 

AJ has done more in 19 fights than Wilder has been able to do in 38 fights.

AJs win over Wlad clearly beats any other win on Wilders record. Wilders best win is still Stiverne...

 

Agreed, unfortunately. He doesn't sound like a well man at all.

 

No, they're not.

Two years ago Tyson Fury was king but he went off the rails, got well out of shape and hasn't fought since then. Potentially he could still be one of the great fighters of this era if he could get back in shape and fighting fitness but he's not right now.

Wilder has one of the weakest and least impressive resume of any World Heavyweight Champion. Since winning the WBC Title he has improved that quality of opposition but it's still not beaten anyone that could justify his claim to being "Top heavyweight."

 

How the fcuk can fury be called the #1 HW. His not fought for 18 months. His irrelevant.

 

This. Joshua is on a totally different level than Wilder and Fury right now.

 

Fury WAS the top, but after a year and a half of not training and doing drugs how on earth can you expect him to box a 12 round fight let alone win a top HW!
Fury that beat Klitschko would have beat any HW, But we don't have that fury anymore!

 

Still better than anything Wilder's fought and he's had double the amount of fights Joshua's had.
