    Name more than two fighters on Bruno`s resume that could beat AJ.

    Regarding the people Bruno beat. I don't think Joshua loses to any of them, and possibly Joshua could beat Bonecrusher over 10 rounds. And maybe just maybe beat an unmotivated fat Tim Witherspoon.

    AJ land more right hands on Usyk than Bruno would have, when the hell did Bruno go to the body, v spoon? AJ landed a few vicious uppercuts to Usyk`s body, the left hook Bruno hurt Tyson with was harder than any hook AJ has thrown, AJ rarely throws the hook, Never saw Bruno tyhrow many uppercuts, AJ`s is lethal, Wlad`s head flew back in that iconic photo and J finished Pulev with a combo of uppecuts because he didn`t trust his hook. Bruno had absolutley no head movement, however AJ slipped a few of Usyk`s shots.

    A prime Tim Witherspoon I agree, the fat unmotivated one who fought Bruno. Who was fed up getting robbed by Don King ? I think Joshua has a chance against that version.

    Both versions of Tyson would batter him and so would Lewis, I think AJ is better than Bruno but what a daft thing to say

    Ok fair enough how about the opposite but for Bruno ? How many fighters on Joshua's resume do you see Bruno losing too ?

    Ruiz beat Joshua, Takam beat nobody (LOL) Chisora beat nobody. Mccall beat preprime Lewis and past it Holmes. Mccall > Parker.

    I like how you slid Takam in there. What has Takam done to gain these accolades, hell what has Chisora done ? Chisora is just a bigger, tougher, sloppier version of Bert Cooper. A pressure fightong gatekeeper with no wins of note. Also Parker got a gift decision against Chisora in the first fight which makes it even worse

    Bruno picked up three losses in the 80s which is also considered one of the weaker eras of heavyweight.
