    You’re an idiot if you think AJ has a glass jaw. He took absolute bombs from Wlad and still came though and won. You’re probably just biased against AJ.

    If it was prime Wlad in there, the punch that dropped Joshua(which landed on the cheekbone) would've landed on the chin and the follow-up left hook wouldn't have missed.

    Wlad by mid-round KO.

    Well, old, inactive Wladimir had Joshua down and didn't finish the job upon his brother's instruction. But he was also gassing enormously. It's obvious that a Klitschko of 18 months prior would have won.

    Joshua is obviously not as hard a puncher as Corrie Sanders, because Corrie Sanders had Wladimir in a terrible condition. Joshua hit glass jawed Klitschko with his "most famous punch", which his #1 fanboy seems to love, the uppercut, and it didn't even put him down! :meparto:

    Do you go with these outlandish opinions to get attention?

    How old were Foreman and Frazier when they fought first time for World titles?
    Both Oly champs under amateur rules and with good pro fights records.

    Ofc A.J not in prime, therefore Ruiz and then 39 y.o Pulev in the ring.

    Wlad would have stopped him earlier than Andy.

    Well probably yes but it says prime Joshua and Joshua is still improving. He's gotten better since that fight

    How can any rational observer not favor prime Wlad, given what old Wlad did to Joshua?

    Not sure. AJ has a pretty good resume considering how long he's been active, but I'm not sure we've seen his prime yet. I thought their fight was pretty much on even terms with Wlad on the decline and AJ a bit green. I think it's a close fight in their prime as well and could go either way.

    The point Is: " How many KDs by Klitschko can AJ survive and then win?

    One...maximum two imo.
