    He fought three months ago to a KO1. Seems to be managed exceptionally poorly though. 31, 4 years as a pro, two time Olympic bronze medalist, and hasn't had more than a 1* fight according to BoxRec.

    Anyone can beat anyone but who has more than 50% chance of beating AJ
    only Usyk and Fury for me.
    Then I'd give Wilder 30% chance of beating AJ

    Joshua KO's pretty much all mentioned.

    LOL, chisora's toughness is without question, but AJ knocks him clean out!

    I don't know. AJ couldn't phase Parker, could only flash KO Ruiz, barely scratched Usyk, had to take a dodgey stoppage against Takam. Doesn't have a great KO record against good chins.

    I'd expect him to hurt and outrange him enough to win the rounds, but I don't expect a KO. Maybe a stoppage but not that kind of stoppage.

    Chisora's style is all wrong for AJ.

    I think whites left hook is heavier than any of Joshua’s power shots

    It's a tough anthopometric/stylistic matchup for AJ. The two most similar opponents to Chisora that AJ has faced: Nistor and Ruiz, beat him. If Chisora landed the big overhand that he caught Parker with 7 seconds in or Takam late in the fight, there's a good chance AJ would get taken out. I would favour AJ to win though.

    Maybe.
    However A.J is very powerful with 2 good dangerous hands. Lesser predictable than Wilder or Whyte for sure.
    His problem looks that he quickly gets tired when he attempts to finish someone.

    Joshua’s the better all round puncher agreed
