    About the same. Lennox was a bit smoother in combination but AJ is more explosive.

    I don't think it would take Lennox that long to knock out Wlad.

    Lewis for me. He has some chilling KO's.

    Lewis looked sloppy with his guard compared to Wlad. Wlad was much sharper from distance with the 1-2-3.

    The right hand that Lewis hit Rahman with in their 2nd fight was sickening.

    It might be Joshua. He is naturally a little bigger.

    However Lewis has better balance and poise and more variety.

    He also has a legit gold medal and a better pedigree.

    Lewis all day.

    I think AJ lost his confidence in the Ruiz fight, up until then he was aggressive and looked for the KO at all times. AJ definitely needs to find that version of himself again, he have looked better lately but he’s still not as aggressive as he used to be.

    Both guys hit like a truck. There's not much in it.

    This is not popular, but to me it seems that AJ has more one punch power than LL. Lennox may be the most effective puncher in terms of combinations.

    He hit very hard indeed but Wlad was viewed as a harder hitter than both Lewis or Joshua.

    Correct. Prime Wlad may be the best one punch fighter ever.

    Agree. Lewis had more KO power than AJ, but Wlad had more than both of them
