Just how highly do you rate Anthony Joshua?

I understand he has fought mainly bums and journeymen however his last fight against a guy who has never been down was very impressive. Obviously he hasn't been properly tested yet so it is hard to say how good he is but I can see him becoming one of the all time heavyweight greats. I just hope that he gets a chance to fight Klitchko before he retires because I think he has what it takes to beat him.

Impossible to rate just now if he were to retire now no one would remember his in 2 years!

His career so far is simalar to david price lets just hope he has the stamina and chin to go further

Quite like the fact he's nasty inside the ring.. Looks like he enjoys knocking people out.

That despite his casual, laid back manner outside if the ring

In fairness to Joshua he does look the real deal but until he fights an elite heavyweight it's difficult to really judge how good he is.

Joshua vs Price is a fight the British public would like to see and would be a bigger test for Joshua. Hopefully it's a fight we get sooner because I don't have much interest in watching Joshua fight punch bags.

People at one point were saying price would beat wlad.

I'm not sure price is a good choice for Joshua, price genuinely has 1 punch ko power and could land a lucky shot. If Joshua wins he's fighting a chinny fighter! If I were them I'd be going for tony Thomson instead he's already beat price and doesn't have the 1 punch ko power to really trouble AJ

Liken his start more to Frank Brunos. Hopefully there are no jumbo cummings/bonecrushers on the horizon.
Until he is tagged nobody knows but,clearly a likeable guy with loads of potential,needing to step up in class soon though or it is getting boring,he is olympic winner after all.

Joshua is being used as a tool to promote the division. Also, we are experiencing a serious Audleymhangover where we have had our hopes of seeing a British heavy weigh with skills take on and deliver against the best.

Once Lewis retired all we had were Danny Williams et al.
Haye...hmmm he was good but didn't command that heavyweight presence.

This lad is what we may have been waiting for, a beast who has ability and marketability.

I am one of those "fans" who likes the big fight but doesn't really keep in touch with it. Like to watch the big fights at my house with mates, or the ones in england at the pub. Anyone reckon Haye might go against him?

Haye needs to get back in the ring against anyone. He keeps saying in interviews that a big announcement is just around the corner but nothing ever materialises.

This

Hopefully he can go all the way in the game
