Joe struggled to beat Takam. Talk again was how Joe did well to handle the pressure and has a chin. he was also on queer street and Takam couldn't finish him. Klit > Takam
is that what you mean sham?
Wow, you really don't rate Wlad...If I remember right Wlad got up from a knock down earlier in the fight and finished on his feet after a massive uppercut at the finish. Takam -Ruiz - parker don't equal and don't punch like superman Joshua

I don't think we saw the best of Klit, Sham. Sure, he got up for this fight, and was better than he was with Jennings and Fury, but you're telling me that was prime Klit out there? No way. AJ's just lucky he didn't meet Klit in his prime when he was with Manny.

He IS the man to beat. But I think he can be beaten if he has an off night, and Wilder, Parker, Ortiz, or Fury have a good one. Klit had an off night against Fury (some say he was carrying an injury) and lost. I don't see AJ as invincible now that he's fought a lesser version of Klit. BTW, I really like AJ. Like his demeanour, attitude, power, heart, and boxing skills.

sham, i rate Wlad over the other current heavies. i don't think anyone else beats him bar fury and AJ. my point was that Joe struggled against lesser calibre opponent than what AJ did. AJ beat one of the greats. got dropped by one of the greats. no shame in that.

That combo that Parker threw on Takam in the 8th round...if that was Joshua throwing it would have been waved off.

A 41 year old, past his prime, fading great. But a great.
