    Honestly I don't understand the narrative that AJ is "stiff" and can't box.

    He's a good boxer, even in the 24 rounds with Usyk who is the greatest technical boxer I've ever seen at heavyweight, AJ was able to stay close to him for "most" of the 24 rounds, particularly in the second fight he won 4 or 5 rounds against Usyk , it's not like Dubois who was absoloutley clueless.

    AJ weakness has always been his chin and his confidence in it, he just doesn't react well to being hit and he can be put in his box if you clip him.

      The chances of Paul getting seriously hurt are greater than of Paul upsetting Joshua. I hope nothing permanent happens to Paul, god forbid, as it will be a terrible look for boxing.

        Ironically, if JP wins, it also will be a terrible look for boxing because no way a guy lacking elite level experience should be beating a former heavyweight champ and former gold Olympic medalist who considering it's at heavyweight, still mostly in his prime.

        Best case scenario is that JP does get knocked out as expected, but can walk away to see another day or heck, even have more of his whacky fights. If anything, he'll go back to facing has beens or non-boxers because he does pretty good against those

          “Because that's never happened to me. I've never lost my soul in a fight, but it happens to him all the time"

            "So, yeah, it's going to be mentally very difficult for him when I start to win rounds and he can't hit me"
