Should he ever be scheduled to fight AJ he should change his ring moniker to Michael The Glass Chin Hunter and use Joseph Parker's promo video showing all the times AJs jaw got shattered and edit Mike Tyson's voice in the video when he states "I'm coming for you" I'd definitely buy that for a dollar!
Hearn said they didn’t pick Hunter as the replacement because they didn’t want a mover. I can see why though, Usyk had a job pinning hunter down and for a debut in America they probably wanted someone slow and easy to hit like Ruiz Whoops!
They didn't want a mover lol, Hunter barely moves. Hunter enjoy getting hit in the face, tough like his daddy. Did you see the bakole fight? In which round did Hunter start moving?
Hunter is 100% legit, and like Usyk, id pick him over Joshua, but I dont know about by KO. Maybe a late T/KO when AJ is gassed. I actually consider him Usyk's best scalp and I think he will end up going down as such at CW. I definitely wouldnt be surprised though.
Maybe he just chose to exchange and stand his ground in that fight? He was much more fluid vs Uysk. Suggests he has more than one way of boxing. Radical, I know....
Was he really that much more fluid against Usyk..? Not from my memory. I recall a little more bounce in his step given Usyk was more mobile than Bakole. Hunter was, still is, always has been... a poor mover. Still durable as **** though.
It's already been said, everyday, since AJ lost to Ruiz. We can expect another 5 months of this. But if AJ loses again, we can expect 10-15 years of this.
