If a weak minded fighter like Saul Alvarez can come back after defeat, everybody can.

Joshua the kind of guy who'd be ruined by one KO loss?

I can see him never being the same again. The problem is that hes really isn’t that great a boxer. Lewis was supremely skilled and so after being KOed he knew he had the skills to get back on top.
A big part of makes AJ any good is his self belief. I think a KO loss would bring about the end of him and I’m half expecting Povetkin to be the man to do it

I get the feeling Joshua is the kind of guy who would be mentally wrecked if he got KO'd.

I get that impression. Physically, he'd be fine. Let's face it though, he doesn't appear to have a lot of mental fortitude. The guy couldn't handle the thought of a verbal confrontation with Wilder. His sit down with Wlad was pathetic. He is possibly the most physically gifted guy in the division but mentally I think he'd crack rather easy.

And your evidence is a face off tv show with Wlad and the supposed duck of Wilder being his commentator
Mentally he seems solid as rock from everything I have seen. The way he dealt with adversity in the Wlad fight was everything you want to see from a young fighter.

Joshua would be able to come back fine. I don't get questioning his toughness or mental fortitude at all. If that was the case, then he would have either got KTFO against Wlad or been content on losing a decision once Wlad took over in the middle rounds. But he kept it together and was never discouraged and came back with a pretty epic stoppage.
