    Wlad hasn't been knocked out in years though I do feel against Joshua he'd be mega wary,I reckon Joshua would be too much,youth n power and seriously good vitimins.

    I'd favour Joshua now.

    While Joshua is still unproven at this level, so was Fury when he faced Wlad. Wlad is 40 years old, been out of the ring for almost a year and hasn't looked good in his last 2 recent fights.

    Great fight in terms of the best fighting the best, but to me Joshua is too Young and too athletic, and too strong for this older version of Klitschko. I'd probably pick Joshua by KO.

    He's still regarded as one of the best in the division. Can't refute that. 1 loss in the last 10 years, and still an active heavyweight.. cmon man. Who's better? Charles Martin, oh how about Dimentinko, maybe Chagaev, or Wach or Helenius? Maybe Chisora? Who..? I think you just would prefer the Parker fight huh?

    doesnt really help your case to list a bunch of klitschko victims that were chosen to fall, but I see that you did just that.

    Can Joshua take a punch? How's his stamina past five rounds? If you know this, you can pick a winner with more certainly.

    I think Joshua is too muscle-bound, and a little stiff. While his offensive skills are great, his experince is limited vs good fighters.

    I'd favor Wald, who is hunrgy now.

    PS: I sent you a PM. Can you send me Tony F's list?

    You still at it Farmy,....every time Wlad loses you come up with all sorts of crazy excuses, when everybody else basically sees Wlad get knocked out by Sanders, run out of gas against Brewster, and lose fair and Square in the worst title fight ever against Fury......<its hilarious!!

    Right now, I think I'd pick Wlad by KO actually. I'll be very shocked if we see it (unless Hearn is VERY confident that Wlad is finished) but I hope we do.

    Here's one that is completely LOST, wlad lasting 4 rounds with AJ would be a miracle. AJ brutally ko's any version of wlad one could put in t g at ring.

    20, 30 and 40 year old wlad gets injured and maybe permanently

    Joshua obviously. Its sad that i said that, but Klitschko decline start long ago. Probably with Steward death.
    First he is not so fast anymore, before he was quick like a cat, right now he is not quick not with the hands and not with the feets. The other problem is the workrate. Before he was the N1 man in the division in throw and hit punches, after 2012 he half the punches he threw and accuracy get so low.
    In the Jennings fight first i was thinking Jenning is so fast, but as we see later, it was Klitschko who is slow.
    Nobody can`t beat father time. Some haters just don`t wanna realize that. That is in all sports.
    Federer for example is still there and a lot of guys say this is the same Fed, but thats simply not true. Same goes for Nadal. And they are not on Klitschko age.
    Klitschko other problem is his trainer oh i mean the lack of a trainer. Banks is doing nothing, he didn`t improve Klitschko in even 1 aspect, he regress further, Banks can`t motivate him, he can`t make him listen, he is nothing. Klitschko was ready to die for Steward, and listen was Steward was saying, now he is going alone and if plan A not working he is not listening to his coach.
    He should have drop him long ago.
