Who next for AJ

Someone with no chance of winning. They've just spent a lot of money getting the cash cow a belt, no chance of them risking losing it in the first defence.

Whyte was a domestic level fight, Martin was a European level albeit American and for a world title but I think someone like chisora would give him problems. So now for me is a logical move towards a fringe world level. So I'd look at stiverne who is a different challenge again. If AJ does a better job than Beyonce wilder then we may just be looking at a superstar in the making.

yeah that would be a good scalp, not too risky, then maybe a Whyte rematch and then on to Haye Fury Wilder.

Is this A nother any good ?

got to be better than prince Charlie I suppose

Whyte has still not proven that he is a domestic level fighter yet.

He doesn't deserve a world title shot.

I honestly see Chisora giving him no problems whatsoever . For his last few fights he has looked shocking .

Stiverne seems like a suitable first defense to me. Recent titlist, the only guy to take Wilder the distance (this could be more relevant if Wilder beats Pov), and at least has some power to make him more interesting than someone like Scott.

true, but an unfit Whyte gave him fits for a while, and above all it would sell, I'd definatley watch it after the first fight.

I'd watch, but I wouldn't pay.

Can't Hearn get him a credible opponent beforehand to show that he's a worthy world title challenger?

Stiverne seems like the obvious choice to me.

Briggs for me as it will sell best

Wouldn't mind Del boy.....AJ although he's world champ he's still learning

He's booked in for The Haye undercard and then he'll fight Haye next if they both win, plus he's not fought a decent fighter for a long time.

AJ needs to face someone who has faced a decent fighter recently?

I hoped for the winner of Parker/Takam, but I heard it became Malik Scott, the diver.

It means 'fixed that for you'. Davie has altered your quote to reflect the fact he doesn't believe Joshua is the world heavyweight champion.

Joshua has been reported as saying he still feels winning his gold was his biggest achievement. I think this is true but this says a huge amount about him winning his world title.
He wouldn't have said that if he had gone out to Germany and beaten Klitschow.

Because joshua knows its a plastic title until he fights the real king.

They want American, so its between Stiverne and Scott. I personally hope it is Stiverne. Scott will be another 2 round quitting job.

Yeah agree. AJ would blitz Chisora. Doubt DelBoy will get past Pulev anyway. I went for Stiverne in the poll. Nothing special but tough and durable and will come to win. AJ needs rounds and he's probably the best shout.
