    Inspired by one of the threads in the General section, let's dissect how prime Anthony Joshua would do against a prime version of Ruslan Chagaev - Top 5 or even Top 3 win by Wladimir Klitschko, that made him the universally recognized heavyweight champion.

    Joshua stops him, horrendous style matchup for Chagaev, he had the hand up high, trying to sneak his way in, he had good fundamentals, but with the high guard, Joshua is going to control him land straight rights to the head and body, landing uppercuts as Chagaev bobs and weaves, and Chagaev doesn’t have the physicality to push Joshua back and rough him up.
