I was watching this heavy weight bout from a different boxing era. These heavyweights used to have some serious "chin". It was not so easy to knock them out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adet-Iy2qLM&ab_channel=BoxingAfterDark.

Fast forward to the current era. One of the top contenders, DuBois, was knocked out by a jab from Usyk! A jab! https://youtu.be/nw--oR0TvB4?t=322 Another top contender, Anthony Joshua, fought Usyk in a very cautious manner the whole time, as if Usyk was Mike Tyson in his prime and he didn't want to get clipped. Usyk is good but he is no puncher, he's a technician. Big punchers from previous eras would not have fought so cautiously.

So what's up with these new heavy weights getting to the top without much chin? Is this some New Normal stuff? I know the Covid shots can make people pass out, and reduce cardio. Perhaps they also make it easier to be knocked out.
