    He could get back to another title shot but i have to see more.He can be very dangerous hes not too bad a fighter,i remember alot of ppl claiming he was the real deal.Of course you know when joshua defeat anyone easy they are BUMS...lmao


    Martin is a big southpaw could pose problems for others ,i would think he and Parker would be good test .considering Parker s last fights.

    Grand scheme of things ?really is probably going to show just how good Joshua was ,bc i dont think anyone will have an easy time with him like that.

    although I don't agree with it all I appreciate the post. I agree with many aspects that there are some interesting fights and characters in there but the main point is its too early to assess if this era even compares with the other great heavyweight eras. it might do in the future but for now a lot of these interesting fighters might not even come back let alone fight in these match ups. at this moment in time, to me it just looks like Joshua can clean up if Wlad is out of the way, a Tyson like clean up of the division doesn't equal a great era.

    Obviously not the best but i do think its damn good and that quantity wise this years crop can compete with many other top eras in terms of quantity of good, exciting heavies .

    Wlad
    AJ
    Fury
    Povetkin
    Ortiz
    Wilder
    Parker


    Thats a pretty solid top 7 imo
