    Chisora KO'd Takam, and Whyte KD Parker, 2 things that Joshua wasn't able to do.... Man, I like Povetkin's chances more and more on September 22nd!!!

    Takam won pretty much every round up untill the KO
    Whyte was on the verge of being stopped while Joshua was never in any trouble in either of those bouts

    AJ never lost more than two rounds to Takam, whereas Chisora was losing and pulled it back. Whyte got knocked down by Parker whereas AJ never lost more than three rounds to Parker.

    Joshua had a way more comfortable night vs Parker. I like Povetkin's chances tho - if he can get in peak condition.

    Yes but Jenner never put a dent in Parker.

    Takam was beginning to come on strong in the later rounds before Jenner set up a flurry of punches which never landed clearnly and the ref immediately jumped in and stopped it.

    It a was farcical stoppage to say the least because at that moment AJ was beginning to run out of ideas.

    Both of them refused to engage Joshua like they did vs Chisora and Whyte.

    Fact is they tasted Joshua's power and wanted non of it. Takam was willing to go toe to toe with Povetkin but very quickly decided against standing inside with Joshua. The knock down in the 5th from a counter left hook on the inside showed why sticking and moving was the prudent choice that night. Had Takam fought Joshua like he did Chisora he wouldn't of seen the 4th round.

    Parker too never took the risks vs Joshua he did tonight, if he had he might of gotten stopped, but then he might have also had more success.

    AJ & Fury own this division

    6'6+ 250 pounds

    Both have all the gifts in the right areas

    Povetkin is going to get flattened by the first 1,2 AJ lands flush.

    Wlad could comeback and beat all of these guys BUT Fury and AJ.

    Joshua schooled Takam and knocked the living crap out of Whyte. If Takam or Whyte fought Joshua again they would be badly beaten, again. Joshua is levels above both of them and nothing that happened tonight changes that.

    I don't even want it to sound as going overboard about AJ. The HW division is weak and the current challenges are Wilder or a resurgent Fury. That was the main problem with the PPV tonight, it didn't mean zip as far as the world level scene goes. Although I should say I did enjoy it still!

    Whyte deserved another world title shot before, and he still deserves a shot. Parker needed to rebuild before, he needs to rebuild now. Takam fell short before, he fell short tonight. Chisora just showed there's still some fight in the dog and he deserves another run. None of it has any additional bearing on Joshua.

    Lol Takam was rocked earlier in the round And cut on both eyes. Whilst he should have been allowed to continue he was never gunna win with the way that the fight was going.

    The opposite for the Whyte fight for me. Joshua beat Parker recently and was barely touched. KOd Whyte.

    Joshua beats both again and probably makes it look easy against Whyte.

    Joshua is just another fabricated fighter waiting to be exposed.
