    Joshua as he stands now, verses the Lewis of the Bruno match.? Lewis definitely not at his best here but managed to turn it around, but if that were AJ in there challenging do we get a new champ? Lennox getting caught as much as he did against big Frank , would this be Lewis s toughest fight to date?

    I think Lewis probably blasts him out early.
    Bruno had success being aggressive became an excellent jab. Joshua has no jab to speak of, yet.

    The only active fighter I've ever seen you talk about is AJ @Fergy

    Do you just lust over the big, strong men of yesteryear?

    Lewis loved big guys. I think 4 rounds max

    Joshua is more skilled than this version of Lennox by a fair bit. But Lewis had a hell of a punch and proved in this fight that he had a winners mentality and was a danger even when pressed. This is of course dangerous for Joshua seeing how naive he has been at times when going for the kill. While I think Joshua is at the very least better than Bruno, Lewis of '92 is a damn sight better than Whyte.

    So I'll stay with the mantra that I want to see more of Joshua against top 5 opponents before I speculate about him in fantasy match-ups with ATGs (even though this version of Lewis probably wasn't an ATG yet). Actually I hardly do such speculation in any case, so I probably shouldn't even be here. :)
