Joshua doesn't have a bad chin imo but he does look uncomfortable when people land on him..sometimes..kinda...He took several big right hands from Klitschko some of which AJ was walking into.. He took Whytes snappy left hook and ate some of oldvetkins hooks. He did get fd up by that fat burrito but to be honest AJ thought fatso was there for the taking so went full ham swinging for the fences and got caught with a shot he didn't see coming in a terrible spot for him. We all saw what AJ was capable of in the second fight. AJ made Ruizs legs quiver in the first fricking round. If AJ was less cautious he could have taken more risks and taken him out... But i get the hesitation as he got slapped around the ring like a hooker in the first fight. But to say Usyk can't hurt or KO Joshua is silly. Usyk made Chisora stumble in round 7 and may have TKOd him had there been another 10- 30 seconds in the round. Chisora is known for his rock solid chin, I've only seen him truly done in by Whyte. Usyk also turned the steel clad jawed Dave Allen into bambi during sparring... Something I don't think I've ever seen. So Usyk can definitely take Joshua out, and I wouldn't be surprised at all if this was the case.
Usyk has all the necessary tools to beat Joshua. Obviously a huge step up for him. I for one am looking forward to this fight.
Ridiculous. Aj has been hurt so many times and somebody will the relentlessness of Usyk can exploit that moment. Not that i favor Usyk (i dont) but Aj's chin is sub par or average if you want to wank him, You can't say Usyk can't hurt him because he can, especially if Aj's gassed
Usyk bulking up is a mistake. He let the Chisora fight and the brainless boxing fans get into his head. Usyk's advantages over Joshua is an excellent gas tank, mobility, and slickness and he certainly has decent speed as well and this most of this is due to being smaller because smaller heavyweights can generally move around the ring better and posses a small hitbox. Usyk bulking up can potentially compromise all 4 of those traits. He needs to use his small size to his advantage. You Aj's fanboys need to realize just because Chisora had success does not automatically mean Aj will stop him. Chisora is a short relentlessness pressure fighter who came forward bobbing and weaving at all times. That is not Aj's Forte, it never has been and it never will be, and based on the Pulev fight it certainly won't be on the night of the fight. Even with that in mind Usyk delt with him easier than Whyte and Parker did. Joseph Parker is basically the closest thing to Usyk Joshua has fought in the pros and it went the distance, Joshua didn't even land cleanly much at all. Erislandy Savon is the closest thing to Usyk Aj has fought in general and he got a gift decision. There is a clear pattern here. If Usyk maintains his head movement and his foot speed then Aj will likely win a decision (whether he deserves it or not) and knick the early rounds by jabbing his guard and his body to score points and an attempt wear him down. And he'll be looking to time that right hand as well. He will make Usyk come to him to counter in spots later on and will try to walk Usyk down with the jab at others times although he might not have success with that. Make no mistake, this fight will be competitive. However if Usyk shows up slow due to that extra mass then yeah Aj will stop him
Usyk will be going after aj this fight just like Fury did to wilder and just like ward did to kovelev
His chine is fine. If it were sub par, he would have been put down many more times or just been taken out. He ain´t no Holyfield but hes no Floyd Patterson either.
He had Chisora completely exhausted and couldn't put him away. Laughable to think he's somehow going to knockout Joshua who can actually fight
you know the Chisora fight he didnt look great but at the same time there were moments where his footwork made chisora look absolutely silly. There were times where he was running circles around chisora lol having said that i think in the AJ fight he is coming to put it all on the line i actually think hes gonna try to hurt aj instead of trying to dance for 12 rounds. He needs to make aj work hard in the first half of the fight and then he should take over i think AJ has a suspect gas tank.
AJ isn’t going to empty the tank going for an early KO in the first 2-3 rounds like Chisora did is he? You only employ that tactic if you know you have no chance of winning a decision and your only chance is an early KO. People are forgetting that factor when saying he didn’t look good against Chisora. AJ is not going to fight like that. That tactic will make most fighters look bad.
He's big enough..... This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected
