Joshua's career has seen its share of ups and downs. He stopped his first 20 opponents and unified the IBF, WBA, and WBO world titles. His first fight that went the distance was against Joseph Parker in 2018. The following year, he faced his first loss to Andy Ruiz Jr.
Recently, Joshua's been on a roll with stoppage wins over Robert Helenius, Otto Wallin, and Francis Ngannou. But he lost by stoppage to Daniel Dubois in September. Now, he's got to choose between a rematch with IBF champion Dubois or waiting for a shot at Tyson Fury, who's set to face Oleksandr Usyk in December.
When asked about the most powerful heavyweight boxer, Joshua's answer was short and sweet. He simply said:
"George Foreman."
Foreman's reputation backs up Joshua's pick. The American boxing legend is seen as one of the greatest heavyweight boxers ever. He made history as the oldest man to win the heavyweight title at 45, knocking out Michael Moorer.
Foreman's career is full of memorable moments, including the famous 'Rumble in the Jungle' with Muhammad Ali. His record speaks for itself: 81 fights, 76 wins, and a whopping 68 knockouts. He hung up his gloves in 1997, leaving behind a legacy of power that still impresses today's champions.
