    It depends,,will Usyk push a stoppage in the later rounds if he has the fight in the bag? His corner would probably just advise him to box and not take chances so maybe not. The other alternative is a Ruiz type stoppage where Usyk hurts a wide open Joshua and sends him to the canvas mid rounds. If Joshua can't seriously hurt Usyk I can't see him winning.

    It's possible, but not likely. A.J. opened up on Ruiz and got caught, and in the rematch he moved away from Ruiz
    like he had the plaque . I don't think an attacking pressure type of fight is in Joshua's tool kit anymore as he seems safety first and Usyk is far more skillful than Ruiz . Possible? yeah, but not the way to bet.
