Say what you want Joshua and Eddie Hearn but the fact is, this is Johsua's 4th young (30 and under) undefeated fighter he's gonna face in a row. That's tough match making in my book. As with any undefeated fighter, they could be anything, same applies to Brezeale who was an Olympian for the USA in 2012. For a 1st defence I think Brezeale is more than a respectable opponent.
He was never going to take on anyone like Wilder or Haye for his first defence was he, it is frustrating because we all think he needs to fight the best in order to be tested.
His power alone will take him through the B tier but you can see why they don't want to throw him in with the elite straight away.

Only problem now is that he is holding a world title so people will be demanding the big names sooner rather than later, also Hearn is going to keep putting him in with unknown fighters with a decent paper record and putting it on PPV purely because Joshua is now a 'name' with the general public and the casual fans.
