With the Andrew that fought Bowe it's quite close on paper. He would probably be winning on points, but the moment he gets hurt by AJ all hell might broke loose and Nostradamus won't predict what happens. It may well go similar to Golota-Grant.
Well normally, I would say Golota as he is about as skilled as AJ and a lot tougher. But how I see this unfolding is...after several point deductions, Golota gets himself DQ'd. And AJ won't get a hardon for at least six months.
No he would not. Golota was better than Bowe (low blows notwithstanding). And Bowe would make short work of AJ.
Golota from the Bowe fights kills Joshua. Big, twice the boxer Joshua is, and he could actually take a punch and slug it out for a while unlike AJ who lost the last drop of testosterone against Old Man Klitschko. Andrew from the Grant fight (sliding mentally further) might not be coming into the ring with a full set of cards, but honestly — Joshua is nowhere near those tough SOBs that pulled through Golota's punishment and ultimately made him quit. Heck, I'd favor the one handed Gołota from Ruiz/Byrd flights against Anthony.
I like Joshua much better. Joshua really ****ed himself with that speech at the end if the fight. I thought he clearly lost again but I thought he fought his ass off last night which is something that I rarely felt about Golota. When the going got tough, Golota always looked for a way out. Joshua stops him IMO. People read too much into the Golota Bowe fights. Bowe was completely shot going into those matches.
I'd probably favor Michael Grant over Joshua as well. Can't state enough times how Joshua just doesn't have it upstairs.
Prime Golota might beat him if he can keep the punches above the beltline, if not hed find a way to lose.
