    After the Ngannou fight AJ has earned the benefit of the doubt here.

    This. If Peter Fury could mostly work out Usyk, how do people expect dealing with a stiff like AJ goes?

    Very easily.

    Rico as much as I love watching him has always been incredibly chinny but he recovers well.

    However AJ is probably one of the hardest punchers in the world.

    Rico is a special case I can’t think of many crossover kickboxers that get immediate shots, perhaps Tenshin but he beat a former champion before facing Inoue.
