    Dillian is the only Whyte that Joshua beats.

    Moorison has a puncher's chance against a lot of guys.

    But even with as little as we know about Joshua, I still think he's likely to land first and we KNOW Moorison is not taking that.

    Who the fuck is Dillian Whyte, Mr King Indomitable Kong :dunno:

    Tommy rarely just got touched and collapsed...he usually got tired and nailed...usually.

    I have seen nothing from Joshua that suggests he hits harder than Lennox Lewis and has a better chin than Donovan Ruddock or Ray Mercer.

    Id say Joshua hits harder than Ray Mercer.

    No doubt, not even close in fact.

    Considering Joshua has never faced a true puncher, this thread is premature. Sure, Tommy had a dodgy chin. But what he also had is one of the top 10 most lethal left hooks in heavyweight history.

    And if he landed it, there's no guarantee Joshua would be standing.
    Joshua might very well just destroy Tommy, but let's not act like it's a given.

    As of now, the safe pick is Morrison early

    I think the safe pick is either of them early.

    Joshua early is the safer pick. Why because we all know Morrison had a chinny chin chin. With Joshua we don't know yet and he's naturally bigger

    I'm a big fan of Joshua but it's too early to make these kinds of predictions

    It was too early before Dillian Whyte, not too early now. Dude is in his prime and should be challenging for a world title. If we can't evaluate him now we never will be able to

    I think we may get some new and more accurate information on a fighter when he faces his first top-40 opponent :dunno:

    Exactly, everyone knows this isn't a real world title fight. Martin is really on the same level as Whyte, a good prospect except he has a stolen belt. If they'd made Joshua-Cornish a world title fight it doesn't suddenly make Cornish world class.
