    Mccall can't box ? Are you trolling ? Mccall beat Bruce Seldon, Lennox Lewis, Henry Akinwande, Larry Holmes, Maskaev. Wtf is wrong with your brain ? You can literally argue Mccall has better wins than joshua, we can make a poll as a matter of fact
    Ajs best wins are mostly old men unlike Tyson as i just proved. You can't refute it, that's why you didn't even attempt it. Johsuas only 2 stoppage losses are to prime pressure fighters, which is why joshua isn't beating tyson realistically. Ruiz isn't even a big puncher. Dubois killed him, the same aj who beat Ngannou after Ngannou gave Fury a hard fight. No matter how much you want to deny it, it happened. Joshua and his team claimed he was better than ever before going into the Dubois fight and he certainly looked that way off the eye test. There was no noticeable decline against Wallin and Ngannou

    Ben Davison claimed aj was punching harder than ever before against Wallin and had been improving, thats why he dispatched Wallin so easily, the same Wallin you keep proping up as a relevant contender, unless you admit Wallin ISN'T a contender. It's one or the other
    Name 2 prime power punchers that aj beat. I can't even name 1
    I am
    Wilder isn't the one getting his timing off first when Tyson is faster, has better defense with his forte slipping jabs and straight punches, has faster feet, better footwork, far superior offense, and has beaten better fighters

    Tyson and Povetkin have similar styles, yet Tyson achieved far more than Povetkin and has more explosive KOs. The burden of proof is on you to show prime Povetkin is on the level of Tyson. Otherwise Joshua struggling with a declined version of Povetkin is a clear testament to how terrible he'd perform against a prime Tyson.

    McCall won his fights mostly on power and durability. He's never been some technical wizard.
    AJ proved that he could habdle a pressure fighter in the Ruiz rematch where he whitewashed him.
    Joshua has been looking like hot garbage for a while now and I even pointed it out in my first post. Do I get to pick the version of Tyson that got knocked out by Danny Williams? :rolleyes:

    Yeah, I noticed that you omitted Whyte from your list. Very crafty. And since when is Povetkin not a power puncher? :lol:
    nope
    Wilder has the nuclear straight right and it is longer than anything Tyson has.

    To say Mccall can't box is completely asinine. But stand on that quote
    Ruiz was 20 pounds fatter than the first fight. He was at career heaviest. Ruiz is literally the second heaviest defending heavyweight of all time, this is not a joke. He had cement feet, this win doesn't say anything about his chances against Mike
    Did you not read prime power punchers ?
    And what does Wilder do when Tyson slips his jab and gets into punching range ? Exactly

    Who is the best opponent Wilder knocked out with that right hand btw ?

    You weasel. You favored aj and in earlier posts said he looked good against Ngannou and Wallin, it's right here for everyone to see. The dishonesty will not work, stand on your predictions when you get them wrong
    Another false equivalence
