    Aj has a glass chin. Against Bowe that's suicide.

    Bowe was very easy to hit, look at how slow he was in the third fight v Holy and in his bout v Hide, he looked awful.

    Prime Bowe would ruin any version of Bowe.

    AJ is faster than Bowe was, Riddick had a long fast jab but was very predictable, he was just an all-actiion brawler with good reach, that he rarely exploited, completely overrrated fighter, AJ is much better than Bowe was.

    Joshua is nowhere near to prime Bowe talent wise.

    Bowe wouldn't lose to fat ass Ruiz. Bowe was easy to hit but unlike AJ he has a granite chin.

    AJ misses less, Bowe was far too wild and left himself open after punching.

    Bowe guts it out to stop AJ in around 10 imo. Joshua may shake him up a little but Bowe hangs in to batter him.

    All you look at is punch stats, head movement and centre line nonsense.

    Your breakdown of fights is Awful.

    Easy win for Bowe, he can take a hit, he'd get past that weak jab and on the inside tko Joshua in round 1.

    The more cautious Joshua who boxed against Ruiz in the rematch might win a decision... prior to that, Bowe likely wins by knockout

    Bowe levels any version of AJ.
