    Povetkin was maneuvered quickly

    Look at his career til chambers compared with post chambers to Wlad and tell me what's better

    How so? Are you relying on Joshua having a terrible chin becuase that's the only way thompson beats him

    There's a difference between being moved fast with quality opposition who are still peak and being moved fast with once decent but now shot fighters that look good on the resume, Joshua is in the latter camp.

    Povetkin faced better opposition considering he faced the dangerous(in 2006) Friday Ahunanya in his 7th fight.

    Joseph Parker has faced good opposition too facing Brian Minto in his 9th fight and Sherman Williams in his 11th especially as he has no where near the amateur pedigree that Joshua has.

    Parker fought min to after two years pro , Joshua is only pro less than a year

    And Parker actually has more amatuer experince than Joshua and was a very good amatuer himself, he was just unlucky to be in a very stacked division

    If Joshua keeps this pace up he will be well ahead of where Parker was after two years

    Big fan of Parker too and he is moving quickly
