Joshua is shit. Let him fight someone who can move their head and body. Last 6 fights haven't been big names but let him fight someone who is and see how he gets on. Soon he'll be compared to Tyson/Ali and it's all wrong.
Joshua is shit. OK. Time will tell.
The division is currently poor but you cannot call Joshua extremely mediocre. That's just not true. He will go on to be a great Champion.
Come on, he is. He's better than most people in the division though. Wilder fight would be good to see. Can see Hearns wanting to milk it a little first and set up a Haye fight?
I thought you couldnt be bothered with it all. Make your mind up or bore off.
Lol. This fight it was pretty obvious what the outcome would be. The Wilder fight I'd watch. Don't take it personally, just my opinion.

I'll head back on here tomorrow when the once a year "fight fans" have fucked back off.
Josh could be the biggest name since Tyson. Not yet tho. Right now Fury boxes his head off.

Hearns is a spiv, its his job to be dodgy and over hype things. As Haye just said, Tone's record is as impressive as Tyson's at this stage of their careers, and Tone has probably fought better people than Tyson, thus the comparisons. Tyson was over hyped as well.

The problem he has and i think he is aware is that the belt has probably come too early. Unfortunatly the division is full of bums that have made Klitschko very succesful and rich. There are now 3 or 4 better boxers but AJ shouldnt of been fighting them for another year at least. Now he is in the firing line it can only make him better. The champ is supposed to be fury and i reckom he would put him away as speed always beats rangeJoshua is shit. Let him fight someone who can move their head and body.

Fury is the most skilled hweight out there for now. Also a complete bellend. But he's still our best hweight for next 12 months or so.
Someone on here has said tyson (mike!) was over hyped. Time for bed sunshine

The standard was way better back then. Nothing against him I hope he beats everyone.
I just wish for a high level, evenly matched, exciting heavyweight fight. Not meaning to annoy anyone, that's just my position.

Tyson knocked out nobody who was any good at all, until he fought Berbick for the world title. I repeat Tyson was over hyped and his record isnt as good as everyone makes out.
The heavyweight division has been poor for a long time, you are wishing the impossible, not Tone's fault at all

Complete bollocks. You're looking at cv not ability. Tyson's head movement and hand speed were unreal. His right hook right uppercut combo is a thing of beauty. Probably only a peak Lennox and a fit a Bowe give Tyson rounds.

Not the point I was making, I said Tone and Tyson have similar records, not ability, I was totally talking about their records, thus spiv Hearn making the comparison. Who did Tyson beat before he won the world title that was any good? Nobody.
You also forgot Evander Holyfield twice, oh and that 'great' Buster Douglas, Tyson was dynamic and exciting, but his record doesnt stand up to the test of time, not like other heavyweights.
