    I thought Joseph Parker would stop Sherman Williams, it's kind of a similar situation here. More props to him if Joshua stops him.

      Possibly... but let's be real... Johnson is there to give rounds. His one punch a round isn't doing crap. Let's hope he does his job

        Johnson looked like Muhammad Ali against Alex Leapai.

        But yeah... he isn't coming to win. Probably goes the distance.

          Definitely. Chisora had him wobbled, so AJ should be able to stop him. The problem with Johnson is his inactivity; a British ref will likely stop it (prematurely) because he won't throw anything back when AJ wades in.

            Sherman Williams is of higher calibre, IMO. He actually throws punches back and has given several HW prospects 'trouble' (Helenius et al).

              I doubt it.

              I think his power is overrated.

                It's a sad thing for British boxing when we're already resigned to what is essentially a corrupt stoppage.

                  He can stop him accumulation or just old BS (british stoppage).

                  I bet Howard Foster was licking his lips as soon as the fight was signed

                    You called it

                      I say yes and personally don't see anything impressive about it. Safety Pin Johnson doesn't do anything but slowly walk the perimeter of the ring tucking his chin behind his shoulder, occasionally stopping to catch his breath along the ropes.

                      As long as Joshua goes about it smartly I think he'll probably stop him on his feet.

                      I think he most likely will and fans will go a bit overboard with it because he went 12 with Vitali many moons ago despite Johnson not being the same fighter who fought Vitali all those years back and despite a ridiculous K.O percentage Vitali showed too much respect and was never a very big puncher especially after several shoulders surgeries.
                      A lot will probably debate otherwise but Vitali didn't have much power at the end of his career it took him 11 to rid Sosnowski, even ancient Briggs who almost died from accumulation managed to hear the final bell - How on earth did Vitali fail to stop him? He always was an arm-puncher particularly after surgeries and lay offs.
                      He sure wasn't half the puncher his little brother is.
