Ahead of Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk, we thought it worth reminding ourselves of the punch power that AJ has in his locker.
There has been much talk about Joshua slimming down in order to condition himself for a potential 12-round bout with Usyk. His opponent, having come up from cruiserweight, has bulked. Usyk is looking as big as he has ever been.
Joshua held the advantage before the camps even began, with the Brit being the bigger man with the bigger punch. Even after the weight loss, you still feel as though that will be the case.
For so many years we have watched Joshua put fighters to sleep with his devastating right-hand punch power. That weapon is not going to disappear, even if he’s lighter on the scales.
Oleksandr, if you’re reading this, it’s not too late to get yourself out of this fight, because the man you’ll be stepping into the ring with is one of the most dangerous fighters on the planet.
In case you needed reminding…
