    Has Britain finally got their "LONG Desired" legitimate Heavyweight Champion of the World.

    Farr being the first real hope really.

    before him Wells and before Wells a very different era indeed. Since Farr, Wood**** then Cooper, then Bruno, then LL, but debatable IF we have full rights to LL, same as Fitz.

    Anyway IS Joshua the First Ever REAL British HW deal?

    :happy
