    I suppose Klitschko (and Povetkin, Thompson, Haye etc...) will be retired until the end of 2017. What do you think who will be the next HW champ ? Of course, I can't see the future but have a strong feeling : there are only two names - Usyk and Joshua.

    Usyk, Joshua and Parker are good canditates. Some exciting names may join them after Rio.

    It will be very open and if they face each other and an exciting time for HW boxing once WK retires.

    Regardless of what you think of them, Povetkin, Fury, Wilder, Parker, Usyk, Joshua, Jennings, Chagaev, Pulev and a potential returning Haye fighting each other can only be good for the division.

    Joshua for me is the only one potentially worthy to take over.

    Depends on when Wlad retires. If he did it after Fury, its Povetkin. If he fight on for 1-2 more years and does not lose, it's likely someone from the 2016 games

    You'll have loads of talent, but all of them will be content with padding their records with journeymen and trial horses, standing in line to have a shot against the champion who will fight everyone.

    Sad reality.

    Tyson will be retired, and Hugie will never be in top ten HW.

    Wlad will remain active for another 10 years until one of Vitali's sons is ready to take the mantle. I'm afraid we will have a champion named Klistchko for the next century. Call it the Klitschko dream 2.0 Uncle and nephew as co-champions.

    Won't be that glass jawed fraud Wilder, that's for sure.

    Well said.... Parker, Joshua clear blue chippers, and Jennings despite his late start appears to be a natural.
