It's not possible anymore, the grab/lean defense is highly effective on short opponents but not when a guy is your size. Lewis-Wlad got away with it because the era they fought in lacked the quality super heavies, the best guys they fought were shorties
If AJ's got a glass or soft chin will that always be the case?
Is a strong chin just something you have or can it be attained with training?
One can strengthen one's neck and this can improve "punch resistance" considerably (see https://www.researchgate.net/publica...ury_Prevention for example); however...Joshua already has a very thick (and presumably strong) neck and a quick google reveals that he does train it; in his case it may be that nothing can be done except to accept that he is somewhat "chinny" and learn to improve his defense, conditioning, and control of distance. A true, world-class Golovkin-Holmes-Klitschko jab, for example, would help him greatly.
Like Lennox Lewis and Wlad and RIP to the Great Manny Steward, when you use your Damn Size Properly and use your Jab, this does help keep people away from your damn Suspect Chin
AJ has to blow it all up, sorry but McCracken needs to GO ASAP! Still having Stamina issues, he looks Slower and Stiffer than ever vs Andy so it is time for Major Changes. Also He is SOFT mentally which tells me he has a bunch of Yes Men with absolutely nobody to tell him to MAN THE F#CK UP! Also he is extremely SOFT Physically on the INSIDE. All those muscles and he gets pushed around on the inside and he gets out-worked on the inside it is pathetic to watch honestly
They let you fight on the inside here in America, it is no Howard Foster here to stop the action when you look over at him AJ. So he is going to have to make some serious changes, I don't see Andy with a Full Camp being any easier in a rematch either. That dude is so QUICK!
