    Why do people keep on bringing up this point? AJ really didn't have much of a choice.

    41 year old Wlad is not a regular 41 year old. 41 year old Wlad would be rank 3 today.
    Povetkin - 38 - Again, 41 year old Povetkin is arguably 3 in the world right now, but placed 4th. He gave AJ a great fight, and a top 10 contender. He was rank 3 when he fought AJ.
    Pulev - Mandatory
    Takam last minute replacement.

    BTW 41 wlad > Whyte, Povetkin, Chisora, Wilder etc.

    So who hasn't Joshua fought that he should have? (Not including Fury which will happen soon)

    Windmill Wilder? Denty wanted no part of it and kept losing his pen.

    Hunter hasn't been on the Hw scene that long.Usyk has barely arrived.

    Propects like Hrgovic are still working their way up.

    Stupid thread.

    Takam was a replacement. Povetkin was and is a top 10 guy. Klitschko was Klitschko. And Pulev was another top 10 guy who was also a mandatory. Fury on the other hand. Has not defended a belt, got caught for doing Nandrolone, fought a long list of bums and is now avoiding a Wilder rematch

    People talk about mandatories like promotion, management and boxer's corporate partners don't have any influence, any of the time.

    Governing bodies have a plethora of income streams and they're not all pure.

    Do you kid think that Fury is murcian boxing fans and Wilder's property?
    To entertain forum posters?

    Wilder postponed 2 times this 3 rd fight and there is no slavery in entertainment business called " professional boxing ".
    Fury is not U.S boxing fans property.

    So your can crusher Wilder as old uncles beater and can crusher is boxing god and these orgs belts are boxing idol for incebiloids in forums and YT comments?

    When A.J and Wilder will have BALLS to fight in their opponents countries like Fury had balls for this?

    And no, I'm not Fury fan but to worship kids like A.J and Wilder here.'

    Laughable idiotic posts in forums.

    He should have been fighting young fresh blood like Wallin & Schwarz.

    Yup just need to make sure I don't quote modern and historic boxers & their use of racial terms.

    I think I can handle that

    I remember people giving crap to Evander Holyfield for fighting Holmes and Foreman when they were 42. At least he didn't fight Matt Skelton when he was 47.

    No matter how you shake it, Joshua has fought a HIGH PERCENTAGE of his fights against guys who were older compared to other heavyweight champs in history.

    Paul Butlin - 36 years old
    Hrvoje Kisicek - 35 years old
    Hector Avila - 39 years old
    Matt Legg - 38 years old
    Matt Skelton - 47 years old
    Konstantin Airich - 35 years old
    Michael Sprott - 39 years old
    Jason Gavern - 38 years old
    Kevin Johnson - 35 years old
    Wlad Klitschko - 41 years old
    Carlos Takam - 37 years old
    Alexander Povetkin - 39 years old
    Kubrat Pulev - 39 years old

    None of that is going to help him against Fury, who is one of the youngest guys he's fought.

    Fury is the Biggest, Most skilled, youngest and sexiest person AJ will have ever fought.

    If Fury's raw size:naughty2: doesn't get to him his charm and good looks certainly will.
