A Bruno 2.0. Would defo pick him over Bruno. Vs Lewis he's competitive and could catch him but depends what Lewis shows up.
It certainly did, I think people give AJ unfair stick for his gastank. It used to be shite when he was near 260lbs, after the first Ruiz fight his gastank improved drastically. He was gassed against Usyk but he wasn't as gassed as everyone thinks, it's just Usyks astonishing stamina that made AJ look so knackered.
Joshua is nowhere near as good as Lewis but he's closer to him than Bruno. Joshua was a unified champion like Lewis who had multiple defences, unlike Bruno who only held the WBC title. Both Joshua and Lewis were Olympic gold medalists though Joshua was very fortunate to not be eliminated in the first round against Savon. Both Joshua and Lewis are legit 240lbs plus super heavyweights, while Bruno was an averaged sized heavy for the 90's. Joshua has a good right uppercut just like Lewis. Personally I've always felt Joshua was more like Bowe than Lewis or Bruno. Not a great mover, good inside for a tall heavyweight, good uppercut and combinations, exciting to watch.
50% like Bruno and 50% like Lewis but he`s better than Bruno was and would have given Lewis a good fight.
A number of Lewis' opponents might beg to differ. Fortunately for Wladimir, it was his sturdier brother who had to absorb that punch.
