    What a prospect the lad is!!!!

    Just obliterated his opponent inside 2 rounds, Seems very humble also.

    This guy was supposed to be his toughest challenge yet, and absolutely blew him away.

    He's an absolute beast in the ring. He will rule the heavyweight category. The problem for him is that is not a very exciting division imo

    Johnson had never been knocked out in his career and he's no mug.

    The only question mark about Joshua is can he take a punch, as no-one has lasted long enough with him to test his chin!

    I've never understood that question.

    If he can win, and avoid being punched on the chin, why's it matter?

    He's clearly a better boxer than his opponents, why does he had to take a hook to the chin to prove that?

    Because he's been knocking over chumps, when he gets in with a top drawer opponent he will get hit, no boxer, no matter how good doesn't get caught with good shots when in with a good opponent.

    Big heavy weights pack big shots, and his chin hasn't been tested yet. I'm not saying he'll have a glass chin, but as yet we simply don't know

    See David Price for further details

    Wow, he made that look easy, he's surely got to step it up a level for the next one.

    He will fight Deyonte Wilder with in 3 years if he carries on that would be an epic fight!
    He ain't good enough yet though.

    But I think Fury will fight Wilder first.
