    That has **** all to do with what I'm implying Mark. AJ KOing Sasha is irrelevant. AJ would knock himself out cold as well. All it means is AJ hits harder than Mike. No ****.

    However, the fact is, Hunter's chin is inhuman, he went to war with Sasha... ate bombs far worse than the one that KO'd Whyte, and should have won the match.

    AJ has more power than Whyte, but Sasha also has more power than AJ, as evidenced by the Takam and now Whyte KO's.

    However... AJ's chin is made of wax paper.

    Hunter, like Ruiz would soak up everything AJ had to offer, only he'd be tagged less than Ruiz, because he's far more elusive, he hits just as hard as RUiz, so he'd walk through what lands flush, grind AJ down and finish him. In a not all that dissimilar manner to what Ruiz did to him.

    I think Joshua is just too big and strong for Hunter.

    You’d have to be really stupid to think AJ has a weak chin after seeing what Povetkin did to Whyte. AJ ate Povetkin’s best shots. Just admit you’re bias. AJ would smash Hunter to bits, to absolute bits.

    Jesus Christ you're an idiot, with poor comprehension. Povetkin clipped Whyte plenty with glancing blows and he didn't go down, until he got the proper leverage and torque and landed the shot he'd been looking for, which did the trick. All Sasha got a chance to do was land a few glancing blows on AJ, because AJ controls range far better than Whyte and makes fewer mistakes, therefore he was never in position to land any of his money punche. Had he, they'd have probably done similar damage.

    However he was in position plenty against Hunter to land his money shots, and he landed some bombs very flush, Hunter soaked the vast majority of them up like they were nothing, only one of them caused him to lose balance, that is all. And why is that? Because Hunter WENT TO WAR with Povetkin, something virtually no one in their right mind would choose to do, and he made it to the final bell, and arguably won.

    We have some irrefutable evidence that Povetkin hits harder than Joshua at this point. Povetkin KO'd Takam cold, AJ TKO'd him, and that was a British stoppage. AJ pounded on Whyte for 7 rounds before he got so tired that he could barely stand, and then and only then, did he succumb to the beating, after taking one shot too many, and AJ KO'd him cold. Povetkin KO'd a relatively fresh, not tired Whyte cold, who hadn't soaked up a ton of punishment.

    All of this means, Hunter has an incredible chin, and could probably stand up to AJ's best shots, just like Ruiz did. Would he go down? Possibly. But he'd also most likely get back up.

    Hunter brings an incredible and exhausting workrate, setting a frenetic pace, he's slippery as hell, hard to hit clean, and if coming forward, AJ will wear himself out swinging and missing, and like with Ruiz, if they stand in the ring and trade, Hunter is an excellent counter puncher in exchanges, and can find and exploit opening like Andy. But if AJ goes on the backfoot, he's toast, it wouldn't look that dissimilar to the Bakole fight, only shorter, because AJ has a far worse gas tank and how many looping overhands to the temple can he take?

    Hunter is stylistically as big a threat to AJ as Fury and Usyk are.

    Yes, because.... Rivas & Ortiz > Wlad = Jennings right?

    Or how about Yoka/Price/Ortiz > Whyte = Allen right?

    Triangle theories don't work. Styles make fights yadda, yadda, yadda.

    What relevance does that have in this discussion? I'm not talking about Hunter facing Wlad.

    But now that you bring it up...

    Based on what? He landed plenty of rights against Jennings, Wach, Haye, Fury, Peter, none of them went down.

    But.. but... but... AJ got back up!!!

    Yeah, so would Hunter.
