    I agree with you, most hate admitting that fighters get better over time, I think the advantage is bigger than most consider, guys the size of Lennox were uncoordinated far more 40 years ago, now the next wave of guys is already coming up,,,

    Josh gets a lot of flack as all up and comers so often get until they have actually won a title,

    I don't want to say without doubt he will be a world champ for a decade or so, I simply think he has more potential to do that then most of all the other guys currently on the radar,,,,,

    he may not be the hardest hitter than has ever lived but in my opinion he does appear to hit very hard and many times very quick, he throws his right often from a hook like delivery as did Lennox on occasion and he gets a lot of torque on it and that might not even be his best punch, as well he can really throw a upper cut and a upper cut is a beautiful punch, often so underused, as well when used often has such dramatic effect as I kind tell you from experience having your head rammed upwards from a upper cut rather than sideways or straight back can often give one more dizzy feeling right away, I hated getting hit with upper cuts, lol, Joshua has a good one,


    one other thing I like about him is his composure.

    Time will tell but he has a lot of ability.

    You completely misunderstood the post. I like AJ , but fighters do not get better over time.

    Dont understand how he hasnt fought for the british title yet.

    David Price - Dereck Chisora - Hughie Fury - Dillain Whyte

    Hes not exactly lacking in big domestic opposition . . . .

    :lol:

    Who thought Khan would win a world title after the Prescott KO
    Who thought Mitchell would be ranked above Burns at 135 after the KO
    Who thought Paul smith would go the distance with AA twice after the degale/groves stoppages

    AJ is a fraud who already got exposed in the amateurs.

    I will bet anyone that when he comes across a decent fighter, he will fold.

    spot on Jordan !

    Nobody is saying that he should fight Wlad, Povetkin or Wilder but he has to be matched against decent opposition. The dude looks incredible strong.:good

    Fury is still British champ after beating Chisora and Joshua isn't gonna be fighting Fury just yet. In terms of the Chisora fight, that seems unlikely while he's still with Waren. Hopefully Tyson vacates and we see Whyte against Joshua for the British after the Johnson fight.

    Whyte would destroy him, that's why he gets ****ed off and starts acting like a thug if you mention the fight to him

    I was saying Tyson is still British champ so Joshua isn't going to be fighting for it while Tyson still has the title. The Hughie fight would be interesting but I doubt they would be matched at this stage of their career.

    Hughie would even end Joshua.

    What his fanboys don't realise is that when AJ fights someone who can fight back his ass will be on the canvas.

    Tonight he is going to beat some bum outside the top 70 and be herarded as the new lewis.

    But he is the biggest fraud in the HW division. Fake personality, fake rehe****d speeches and fake manufactured reputation.

    Jason Gavern is tough as nails. Comes to win no matter what the odds.

    Yeah, he's only good for 4-6 rds vs a puncher, but he's gonna test an opponents chin, his stamina thru 4-6 rds, and his wild style is gonna find defensive deficiencies in his opposition.

    That said....he's a great opponent for an up and coming fighter.

    Let's not pretend this is Joshua's 32nd fight and he's been fighting nothing but Gaverns, Firthas, and Sconiers his entire career.

    KJ is next, and if the Tiger fights him later in the yr, and a Chisora comeback is successful, I could see AJ getting the Chisora fight and winning it, comfortably placing the would be 15 fight prospect into top 8 contention.:thumbsup
