Does AJ have an underrated chin?

I don't think his chin is great, but his defense can be a bit underrated. Not always easy to catch clean. Not saying he has a great slick defense, but he's effective. The problem is that when he's hurt, he stays hurt for a long time. Once Wlad hurt him, it took him rounds to get through it. Same as when Dillian Whyte hurt him. Wlad couldn't pull the trigger to finish the job, and Whyte didn't have the composure (and was carrying a shoulder injury). I don't think his chin is great, the few times he's been caught hard in his career, he was hurt. Some better finishers might've finished him off. If i was a fan, i'd be more concerned with his recovery time than his chin. His lack of stamina is the issue, cause he’s an explosive fighter he burns a lot of energy very quickly and that is when he becomes vulnerable

AJ is basically known as a fighter with a Khan-level chin but is his chin better than he's given credit for? The punch that he took from Whyte in round 2 was the same left hook from a blind spot that he knocked Chisora out cold with. His chin is far from bad. He’s not got a Vitali like chin but he definitely has some punch resilience as shown in the Whyte/Povetkin/Wlad fights.

Fury got good powers of recovery.

How good the chin is really a moot point. How a fighter recovers from being hurt is more important. Joshua both times he was rocked recovered well enough to take over later in the fight. Joshua also continued taking flush shots after being down against Wlad. That shows toughness and heart. Against Whyte, he was completely dominating before getting caught with that hook. Then Whyte had moments in the next round before he proceeded to get beat pillar to post the rest of the way. Same thing will happen in the rematch. So I don't know if his chin is underrated or not, but he certainly has the toughness and heart that you need against these big hitters at HW.

Damn, what the hell is Bivol doing smoking a cigarette? Doesn't he know I predicted he would prove to the best light heavyweight in the world? That's not the way to keep world class stamina. That crosses my mind every time I see that dude s sig LOL.

His chin is decent. He has only been down once from a bomb thrown by a legendary puncher. He is a world champion with many successful defenses against hard punchers. He has never been lost or been stopped. His chin should never be compared to Khan's chin. Khan has been stopped 3 times and knocked down and hurt many times often by light punchers.

Hez had 22 fights with this same chin and a 4 belts unified champ. Now you think we should care much about his chin, common man. That same chin won him those titles, hez got a decent chin End of.

It’s bad enough that I think if Wilder hits em he ain’t going to get up like Tyson Fury.

I don't really believe anyone thinks AJs chin is at Khan level but it's bad enough to keep all of the NSB Brits afraid of a Joshua/Wilder fight actually happening.
