Is Anthony Joshua done at world level?

Those fights (Bakole/Hrgovic) would be 50/50 IMO, Joshua could have them both in as much peril as they have him. They both get hit as well. And Joshua for all his deficiencies, is still a legit hitter.

I actually think Bakole/Hrgovic would be a good fight tbh

 

Joshua does have better boxing ability than most of the top ten, so feasibly he could muster a win against the non punchers. Parker and the Hrgovic of the division he still beats. The problem would be against any of the big hitters. Dubois pretty much laid out the blueprint.

You would have to give Joshua a punchers chance against anyone but those fights would now be 50/50. If not worse due to his poor punch resistance.

 

Zhang would shatter that Glass Jaw into a million pieces.

 

Efe Ajagba.

 

Joshua is a stiff, robotic bum

 

He's a Top 10 guy according to The Ring, TBRB & Top Heavyweight Boxing. Just like Wallin was. Your opinion is different and that's ok, but Wallin was universally seen as a Top 10 guy when AJ faced him.

 

Why so many people have a hard time accepting this I don't understand.

 

Was Helenius not in the top ten? I imagine his first round KO loss to Wilder bumped him out of it.

 

Nahh, Helenius wasn't a Top 10 guy for 10 years.

 

I'm inclined to agree if he can't dent or play keepaway against Zhang..........

 

Must love his muscles and the fact he can knock out stationery, pillow fisted cabs

He's a fraud

 

Was he ever world level?

 

I think he is done now.

It's not his age or physical attributes, or even his natural boxing skill levels that's done. It's the single most important thing a fighter must have in abundance that's AJ's Achilles heel. His natural self confidence and self belief ( lack of) moving forward after he took a complete and utter pasting last Saturday night.

At this stage of his career I just can't see him rebuilding tbh.
