    Honest opinion? I think they all beat him. I've a ton of respect for Moore at light heavy, at heavy he's just a decent contender. Not saying all blow him out but they all find a way to win.

    When AJ fought them?if that’s the case he beats them all. I will say all of them have the chance to KO Archie as his chin is similar to AJ. If Wlad is prime I don’t see Archie winning but old man Wlad is beatable.

    Kind of Archie in a nut shell. Could beat anyone really. But dropped some odd ones along the way.

    Should he not have fought him then?
    15thWhyte
    16th Martin
    17th Breazeale
    18thMolina
    19thWlad
    20th Takam
    21st Parker
    22nd Povetkin
    23rd Ruiz.
    Want to compare those names with previous champs at the same stage?

    Why you being so aggressive for? I literally haven't done nothing. I've not even weighed in on this one.

    AJs progression is fast and impressive. But don't act like he less experienced than Whyte after about 100 more amateur fights than him.

    probably 4-1 , I think he'd have a hard time getting close to Klitschko , might dent his chin if he could.
