    Jennings 84 inch reach elbows nice and tight with left shoulder pointed in the direction of the opponent throwing effortless punches like mike mcCallum 1,2,5,6 combo all from a closed guard and fighting of the back foot it's damn near impossible to hit him squarely. :bart

    If Joshua proves to have a decent chin I really think he will be hard to beat, he is improving really quickly.

    This one will be an unpopular opinion but I reckon wilder can have a good run aswell, he's got serious power and if he lands before his opponent can get to him then he's capable of beating almost anyone in the division IMO.

    His already proved to a certain extent that he has a good chin,what im worried about is his stamina

    Wilder will actually have to start knocking out durable guys to prove he even has good power

    Firtha is a walking punching bag whos not even got great resistance anymore and he stood up to 50 plus hayemakers over 4 rounds, Wilders power is overrated

    Yeah I personally believe big josh has a good chin, huge jawline aswell although in reality that probably doesn't mean much.

    You're right really as there have been many guys whos KO ratio drops off as they move up in levels, this may well prove to be the case with wilder. I do enjoy watching him fight though, he's exciting to watch at the very least.

    i base Joshua's chin on being able to go toe to toe with Medzhidov (the biggest puncher in amateur boxing) and also the likes of Cammerelle and others

    Wilder is exciting to watch no one can dispute that but in fairness watching mismatches where your always gaurenteed a knock out is fun

    Wilder Power could actually be very average for a top class heavyweight we dont know yet

    I'll that Parker gets the most fun to watch award in my book.
    While it's unlcear who between Usyk, Parker, and Joshua will have the best legacy when all is said, and done, Parker has the best offense. Fast hands, Power and commits to all of his punches.
    My only, concern with him is defense. If he shows an improved defense in future fights then he will be very tough to beat.
    Joshua though not quite as skilled is a little bigger, and is still very talented.
    Usyk is just boring to watch, but might be the best of the lot.
    I just like to see fighters commit to their punches a little more. Usyk fights seem more like fencing to me.

    Usyk isnt boring to watch, he just has a lot more skill than the other two boxers named and he uses it to great effect

    Povetkin beats Joshua bad.

    He's good, but I'd be surprised to see him take over from Wlad.

    Dillian Whyte would beat Usyks ass back to Belarus
