    Joshua has connected with power punches on a lot of boxers, and it wasn't simply "over with".

    Honestly, the guy needs to get some air.

    He's on every AJ thread going. Chill Winston!

    Can see him repeatedly getting inside the jabs, slipping off to an angle and hammering AJ with straight lefts to body and head all night

    While Joshua's power is somewhat over stated. He's still a good puncher who has stopped 22 of 24 opponents. Can Joshua punch hard and take Usyk out? it's not beyond the realms of possibility that someone his size can do it. Will he do it with one shot I doubt it.
    But he stopped unbeaten Whyte, Breazeale and Martin in consecutive fights. (separate arguments about how good these guys are obviously) but AJ can punch.

    If Usyk is dominant i think he can win on points but he would need to really outclass Joshua and maybe i'm wrong here i don't see that happening. Mainly due to age and injuries effecting for Usyk I expect him to have his moments and cause AJ trouble early but later in the fight if he hasn't been able to exert his usual high level pressure than I think it becomes a fight than favours AJ. If I was an Usyk fan those 3 rounds at the start against Del Boy would worry me a bit. He was uncomfortable and AJ will bring it for more than 3 rounds.

    Lets hope for a fair fight with a clear winner.
