    Typical fanboy logic. Corrie Sander's never knocked out and world class fighter. Yet he destroyed Wlad in less than 4 minutes . Who else did Brewster knock out Besides glass chin Wlad? Purrity still took every thing Wlad had and stopped him. Sam Peter dropped Wlad 3 times. Davarll Williamson dropped him with one punch. Blown up light heavyweight Steve Pannell dropped Wlad with one punch.

    The only reason Wlad wasn't stopped more was because of how bad the heavyweight talent was and still is.

    Except Joshua is slow in comparison, and Usyk is a ballerina with his footwork in comparison. It’s not the same as Beterbiev being on the inside, and being at the right level to dig in.

    Since when did Joshua have the athleticism of a cruiserweight to frustrate Usyk?

    Its not the athleticism, though Joshua is very athletic for a 6'5 250 lbs. fighter, its his size, length, strength, skills, and IQ on top of his rare athleticism for his size.

    Only here on ESB do a number of very important advantages -- which in most cases AJ olds those advantages to significant degrees over Usyk -- become mere afterthoughts compared to the few advantages Usyk holds over AJ, to nowhere near as noticable a disparity between the two might I add, when assessing and predicting the outcome of a possible future showdown between the two.

    Make no mistake, if these two do on fact fight in the near future, AJ is the favorite by quite a margin as he should be. As p4p fighters, I think Usyk clearly is superior, but in an actual match at HW....... Just too much for Usyk to overcome and I could see it being short and not very competitive.

    You are a complete idiot, my friend. Using your logic, who else did Hasim Rahman knock out outside of Lennox Lewis. And yeah, Raham knoced Lewis out cold with a single punch while Wlad took tons of Brewster's bombs in round 5. And didn't Brewster destroy Golota in 52 seconds? What about laying out Krasniqui and other 30 guys? Yuo are telling me the guy didn't have the power?

    Usyk's chin looks fine to me. He gets caught every now and then and obviously feels it because he backs up or stops what he's currently doing, but that's par for the course in any boxing match. Thus far I've never seen him seriously wobbled or close to going down, and he's fought some of the hardest punchers in the sport.
