    This fight will be a walk in the park for big Aj, I can not see any heavy weight boxer currently in the division giving him any trouble.

    Wlad looks slow and old and needs to be careful not get hurt at the end of a long career. But it will be a good name for Aj CV.

    I can only see Aj being put in the same category as Lewis and Tyson in the next couple of years!

    I like Joshua but he's not on the same level as Lewis or Tyson and won't prove to be.

    If he beats everyone in the division would you say he is on their level? Because there is not a heavy weight out there that last 12 rounds with big AJ.

    Agreed. I could definitely see a young Tyson getting shook to his boots by Dylan Whyte.

    You may want to wait until after this weekend to make this bold statement.

    No, I'm pretty confident between 1-2 rounds he will get wlad out

    How 'Bout we Sit Back and Allow Anthony Joshua to Be the Best HE Can Be???...

    No Reason to Think he DOESN'T Have 8-10 STRONG Fighting Years AHEAD Of Him...When All is Said and Done, there's NATHAN More to Say or Do...Then and ONLY Then Should Boxing Fans REALISTICALLY Compare Joshua to Other Heavyweight Greats...

    word.

    I hope Barneyboy is right as the sport needs another Tyson. But let's not jinx the guy before he's proven himself.

    I don't see Joshua going full rounds with James Tillis either.

    Joshua LOOKS phenomenal, just like Tyson did. Tyson also proved to be great, Joshua is still at the beginning of his journey.

    At no other era would a fighter be written off because of the Whyte-fight. Clay-Cooper, anyone?

    AJ is certainly the first heavyweight since tyson with genuine superstar potential, he's already a bigger star in britain than lennox Lewis ever was - little cleaning ladies and casual sports fans all know about him and this fight. If he strings a few wins together and takes the show on the road he's gonna be in nike adverts and on billboards and chat shows around the world. Usain bolt, tiger woods level marketable. The boy just looks and talks like big bucks even aside for being an aggressive big punching heavyweight.

    Or he might get KOd by wald pussy

    This thread title has been bollocksed up,.. 'The next Tyson' is to say,.. the 4th best heavyweight of the 90's if he's lucky :palm:. Joshua being proclaimed as the next Lennox Lewis is a bit more, uh, exciting so to speak and relevant given he's british.

    I'm a big fan of AJ but he is not on the same talent level of Tyson.

    Dude is about twice Tyson's size. The average weight of tyson's opponents on the way up barely cleared 200lb, joshua would have run a train over them

    Agreed. Joshua is potentially better than both Tyson and Lennox Lewis....but it's far too early to tell yet.

    I'm starting to think there is a direct relationship between Slys admirable bullshit and klitschko chances of winning. The more Sly passes Joshua off as this unfathomable leviathan, the better I feel klitschko is going to do.

    You haven't been comprehending what I've been saying...

    I've said repeatedly that Joshua's still unproven; specifically his chin and stamina. Now he did show quick recovery and heart in the test against Whyte and so has shown a great deal of potential...however I'm still cautious.

    I have not yet anointed him as an ATG heavyweight ya difficult Irish cunt.

    :lol:

    Thing about Lewis though, which in my opinion compensates fully for his likability deficit, is that he was consistently willing to take on all comers. That is what allowed him to be great - the fact he took on all comers.

    I never fucking liked Frank, and his role in the death of Darren Sutherland confirmed to me what a cunt he is.
