Hahaha Jo does have power, obviously not proven at the top level yet. Let's see if he can produce the goods
Well we know AJ has ko power, every fight by KO. But as you said Bopman the jury is stil out for Jo. Pity its in the biggest fight of his career and up against todays strongman, but thinking about it, 12mil is not to be sneezed at.

No, he doesn't have Klit right hand, but others have knocked him down too. What I'm saying is that JP can hit him with a right hand without having to get inside if he takes a step forward. JP power? I don't know. He had it. He lost it. Does he have it back?
If we look at Wlads right hand and dam he punished a lot of people with it and from memory he dominated top 10 guys but his power wasn't KO,ing them. He would wear his opponent down. I remember Wach, povetkin, Haye, jennings and even the Chris Byrd first fight , his power was hurting them but couldn't finish them with his right hand. What I'm getting at is Styles make fights and Wlad had proven power against good opposition but top level and guys that could move he couldn't rely on his power. Parker has fought Takam, Ruiz and Hughie, three guys with exceptional movement and all different styles of movement. These guys will be hard for anyone to put away. This is where everyone questioned Parkers KO power. I think anyone would struggle with these three and obviously AJ did too against Takam, he was obviously winning the fight but he didn't look like he was gonna put Takam, got the funny stoppage tho. It will be interesting because both guys styles suit each other and I think Parker has enough in his right hand to actually hurt AJ and everyone knows AJ can hurt anyone too. So its interesting Parkers real shut fight was Conjanu, he had no excuses there. Conjanu was a negative fighter, a big bugger but Parker shouldn't have let that guy live.
Conjanu has never been knocked down, even in sparring. Even after 100 rounds with Parker.
Parker wasn't able to hurt Ruiz jr or Takam and neither was fighting defensively against him, they were there to be hit and they got hit.
Takam turtled up after the first time he got hit by AJ and touched down. His output was very low.
Takam threw 451 punches at Parker, he threw 222 at Joshua
Considering that parker and takam went to war and threw defenxe out the window and Takam fought to survive vs joshua and still got dropped, cut open badly, rocked multiple times even without the mildly questionable stoppage it speaks volumes.
I watch Conjau fight again ...wish I didn't before that I was so positive
I hope JP had a off night
