    They are heavyweights, let them take punches off AJ or Wilder or even take the hook Ruiz first hurt AJ with.

    Joyce has met a heavy punching heavyweight, Kov punches harder than a 175 pounder, Joyce hasn`t met a heavyweight equivalent of Kov with the same KO ratio.

    We can joke about the the jab KO all we want but at the end of the day.. Yarde did take clean shots that woyld have dropped many guys in the LHW and hit kovalev with many shots that would have dropped and KOd many LHWs

    They need to make a new form of kevlar armour out of Kovalevs face

    I would say Joyce and probably Dubois have a better chin than Joshua and both Joshua and Wilder hit harder at heavyweight than the current half shot old Kovalev that stopped Yarde, does at light heavyweight.

    Kov is still better at opening up opponents than Wilder and AJ are.

    Well, Yarde's chin has been Tenderized and Shattered so look forward to him getting KO'd many times in future fights unless he takes the Tyson Fury route and only fights Pro Cab Drivers in the future to pad his record for his adoring Brit fans!!

    im up for trolling brits when I see the need,but in this particular case all I see was a guy who went to Russia and went out on his shield after giving it everything. I never fault effort.

    Eubank said he caught by the speed of the punch that dropped him but that it wasn`t that hard, however Roach said the same thing about Mike Tyson when he worked the pads with him, he said Wlad hadd stronger power than Mike but Mike`s speed and snap got you, often in the form of counters, that`s why Ruiz hurt AJ so bad he was moving into a couter hook adding power to it, it`s the punches you don`t see coming, Kov has more strength in his punches than Joe had, specifically his jab, it`s more powerful and has more snap than Joe`s did.

    Yarde is nowhere near Fury`s level at all.

    I'm not denying Kov is more powerful but Calzaghe had a good punch in his heyday along with blinding speed and ability to misdirect.

    I'm confused

    I don't think I have either,infact I have praised Yarde in a big way in other threads

    Maybe im reading your post wrong Gerry?
