    There's plenty of cruisers and I'd make guys like prime Jones and Tarver favourites

    What about someone like mosley? Reckon he could get inside and finish the bodybuilder?

    Marciano could beat him because of the stamina and chin advantage, he also has a good workrate and hits hard enough.

    On a serious note I think Usyk and Michael Hunter Jr. both have very legitimate chances, though they would be uphill battles from the start considering the height, reach, power, and weight/frame disadvantages they would be facing. Id give Usyk the better chance by a good margin between the two, though.

    lol, AJ would have knocked Tarver out with ease, no cruiser would stand a chance.

    His reach may have been too short, no fighter with that reach could have beat AJ.

    AJ would stryuggle for more with Usyk than Hunter, no comparison, I feel Usyk may turn out to be the best heavyweight in todays game.

    I agree. It's a shame Cammarelle never turned pro, I think he would have had a damn good career. But ya, Usyk I think will end up turning out to be the best of the bunch, especially if AJ doesnt go back to the drawing board and address his flaws -- considering he has the drive/desire to do so.

    I think 6'2, at least thats what hes listed at but I wouldnt be surprised if he were a shade to an inch shorter TBH.
