I hope Joshua fights Ortiz next, but I would bet quit a bit that he won't. He'll fight someone like Pulev to stay winning before losing to the Fury/Wilder winner.

Not sure I follow you here. THe ratings haven't changed yet.
Looking at the points I'm pretty sure AJ will go to 1
It's official, King Josh :OhYes:

Ya, he won't because he'll have a mandatory vs Pulev and Ort's side will be 'lowballed' . And of course they will be perfectly honest as always rather than blatantly lying about their offers :lol:

And Luis says he'll fight AJ anywhere, anytime, for virtually nothing :KO:

It is undecided who is the best heavyweight is until they all face each other.
If the Wilder vs Fury fight comes off as scheduled for February then we are half way to seeing who is best.
Until then its undecided

My personal opinion is it depends on who you ask.
I can see justification for any of the 3 being the #1 man

I asked you.

To me aj. If he fights smart than he beats them all. He got the power to make himself space, hevgot better footwork than fury & wilder, the stamina to move 12 while being focused. His jab was good, his cross was snapping.

Aj can beat all of them, yes. But they can beat him too. But then he just goes after a rematch and gets a W. So do love this era.

prior to the loss, what was joshua doing? he had the best record, fought the best names and beat everybody up and rarly struggled unlike the 3 others. just because he had on bad night people act like he is no good.

at the sound of the opening bell josh started running for his life. plain scared of getting punched in the head.

the ref splits them up the second ruiz closes the distance and an actual infight could've went down.

even when nobody was holding he instantly separated them into long distance.

no order to 'don't hold' or to maybe let them fight out of the clinch'.

the moment absolutely legal punches are about to be thrown in a boxing match the referee yells the command to "stop punching! stop punching! fubbing absurd.

Think you watched a different fight to me

Thought the ref was very reticent to jump in and split them up, possibly for fear of get hit by Ruiz

:zzz: That fight was horrible. 😆. Masterclass... 😆. Give me a break. Joshua is on a bike ride. Even with Andy being in horrible shape Joshua never had the intension to fight. After running all fight he is now being compared to Ali. Comical when he refuses to face the top two heavyweights. Hearn will keep the belts hostage now and we will have to hear how amazing Joshua is when fight lesser opposition for mandatory fights while still dodging the best in the division. On another note i love how Ruiz is supposedly finished. 😆. How about Joshua after his performance the first fight? 😆. Andy will get the fire back and be a top contender and let his hand fly. Has good chance at being champion again. AJ is a great heavyweight and is good for the sport but we all know he is being sheltered. Saudi was a complete safe haven for Hearn And Joshua. The ref wouldn't let a fight break out and would even give a AJ a push on his bike ride. 😆

Dunno, will Luis 'anytime, anywhere, any money' Ortiz reject him again? Since we are lumping Ort in with these guys, will Wilder or Fury fight Dill Whyte?

Why would anyone still care if he fights Ortiz or not?

Yes I do think he'll fight either Fury or Wilder or both at some point.

Ya, Dill Whyte is every bit as relevant and proven at Ortiz. WILL WILDER OR FURY FIGHT HIM???

Surely Whyte has to get his title shot at some point.

I don't think he has much of a chance at any of the Big 3 personally, but he's earned his shot, and legitimately deserves the payday that comes with a Championship opportunity. Whether or not he can win or not is beside the point. He deserves the big payday, and has earned it.

I think everyone on the forum has said that at one time or another.
