Re: Boxing/MMA
I think Joshua can be nurtured into Britain's next Lennox Lewis, if he continues to step up in opponents each time anyway. If he follows the same route of Hatton or Brook then he'll inevitably get himself exposed later on down the line. Haye tried to bait him in today. Taking that fight and knocking out Joshua this early in his career would all but destroy it. I can't see any reason why Haye needs a 13-0 prospect fighter when he's already well established... Money naturally. In 5 years Joshua could match Haye if not beat him. Right now it's a case of inexperience. Joshua has never seen speed like Haye never mind the power coming behind it. Joshua wouldn't be exposed, it'd be a horrendous decision to let a rookie fight a veteran.
