    Parker vs Joshua

    None of these will ever happen

    But since Deontay would never lower himself to fight low hanging fruit like Joshua and Parker the only answer would have to be
    Parker-Joshua

    Next question

    Agreed. Parker and Joshua will both fight any other title holder, they actually want to fight - Wilder (or Haymon?) haven't showed any sign of willing to take a risky fight.

    Well joshua is a safe bet he will defeat everyone...Parker is a risk taker and if not for his management would have fought joshua already...well,if you know your boxing you should know who wins that one. By not taking the Joshua fight he now has a belt and is better developing now.....i dont EVER expect him to be Joshua but he certainly increases his marketability and chances staying away from him until he refines a few things. Wilder and the like will avoid the big fights if they can..I still think wlad will defeat anyone not named Joshua for 2 more years. i expect the Parker vs Joshua fight soon after the Wlad fight give or take a few matches /mandatories in front of it..

    Joshua vs Parker. Wilder will retire as soon as he is made to fight someone in the top 10.

    This is how things will go likely go down. Winner of Joshua/Klitschko faces the winner of Parker/Fury and Wilder will be cashed out against the winner of that fight.

    Joshua/ klitchko has mandatories of either Pulev or ortiz. Wilder will get 3 fights of on the side guys SOMEHOW.....

    Yeah he does seem like the safe bet, though we do need to see how the fight with Klitschko goes to see how he fights another top boxer - even if he may prove to be 70% of the man he was, he's probably still more than anyone else AJ has fought.

    They'll be paid step aside money(Ortiz is in Hearns pocket so he definitely won't be a problem assuming Joshua wins) Pulev might be a problem, but he'd probably gladly take the bribe and shut his mouth and wait a little longer for his big cash out fight.

    Heavyweight is the best division right now imo. So many awesome fights to make title fight or not.

    I think Joshua vs Hughie Fury in the fall, unification huge fight in England. Parker vs Miller non title fight on the undercard

    I've posted this before but this is how I'd love to see it play out.

    Joshua KOs Klitschko. Wilder atones and KOs Stiverne in May. Joshua takes the Ortiz mandatory around September. (Ortiz getting old needs to take a title shot when he can) If I were Hearn I'd make the fight in Miami. Huge Cuban population + gets America its first look at AJ. Hopefully Parker beats Fury, Wilder fights Parker in Vegas shortly after AJ Ortiz for the WBO/WBC on NBC. AJ and Wilder at each others fight and if both KO Ortiz and Parker Jesus. Undisputed heavyweight championship fight at the end of the year in Vegas or NY. I don't even think ESPN could ignore that fight.

    Klitschko Vs. Joshua. I think Vlad will out box Joshua, probably knock him out. Vlad was so superior to Joshua in sparring not that long ago. If Vlad is focused he will knock Joshua out.................Vlad would have knocked Fury out in the rematch...............Wilder will not fight anyone who can fight back, he will continue to fight voluntary title fights against winos from the alley................
