    Has to be a big name, IMO, as it won't be long until he really hurts these nobodies.

    Tarver, Cunningham, Arreola or Stivierne, IMO.

    Tarver wouldn't be a bad shout. Awkward and experienced but probably wouldn't have the power to KO him. I can see them working him a shot at Teper and then onwards if he wins

    After Whyte, and assuming he wants to keep his Commonwealth title, someone from the Commonwealth? I think he'd hammer Lucas Browne and it would help his world ranking, if not his progression.

    whats happeneing with the british title is that still held by Tyson ? will he be vacating this ? For some bizarre reason i thought that he had already vacated it and the Joshua Whyte fight would be for the vacant title ? Cunningham then Teper would be good take the euro title then defend it then move onto looking at WBC either Povetkin or Wilder whoever it is at the time so another year at very least - 4/5 fights prob before looking at any possible world titles

    I would still like to see AJ have one more fight between Whyte and Teper. I think Browne is a safer option, ranked WBA#3, unbeaten, crude but powerful... and AJ beats him easy. Or someone like Cunningham or Tarver who can give him different problems.

    Let's see if he gets past Whyte first.

    Wach would be ideal as the guy would give him rounds. I doubt many North American fighters would travel due to money.

    As for the British title Fury says he wants to keep it so board may order Fury/Chisora 3 (Joshua is ranked below him) but that would be meaningless. If Fury loses to Wlad, expect him to fight the likes of Towers/Lewison as his first defence. Not sure where Joshua fits into the British title picture at the moment.

    Fury has vacated the British title because he's fighting for a world title, Joshua-Whyte is for the vacant British title.

    Bryant Jennings or Joseph Parker would be good opponents.
    Chris Arreola would be a very poor opponent.

    They will probably settle for Naseem Hamed.

    After Whyte he'll probably go for the euro vs Teper, maybe a defence of his Commonwealth vs Leapai first. Then defend against someone like Ustinov. Then an eliminator vs a former Wlad/Wilder/Fury opponent like Wach , Hammer, Molina or Duhapas. Then whoever has the WBC world title, unless Fury beats Wlad.

    Pulev would be a great test
