Ben Davison is very young yet seems to have an exceptional knowledge of boxing.
He gives specific technical advice in the corner. He's not like many others who don't give any specific advice, who just tell their boxer to 'go get him'.
No, you have to give specific instructions, eg. Double up on the jab, feint with the left and throw straight right, throw a right hook and left uppercut, move in other direction, counter lazy jab, etc.

The big deference between the AJ Usyk fought twice and beat, the searching AJ, and the AJ under Davidson is that AJ has much more confidence in himself now than ever before and therefore fights with full strength of his attributes instead of trying too hard to prove that he can box.

British trainers are missing something. They don't really teach good defense. For this reason, many British boxers get a lot of bones in their faces broken.

Goodness, what utter BS from Hearn. AJ is the same fragile fighter he’s been said since getting KTFO by Ruiz and he should have gotten KTFO by Klitschko but for the fact Klitschko had a yes man in Johnathan Banks in his corner. Imagine Manny Steward in that corner, AJ would still been sleeping. DDD knocked AJ TFO cold in sparring. AJ has no chin. What’s Davidson going to do, give AJ a titanium chin transplant? The sad thing here is that the fix is in for AJ to win if the fight goes the distance. Betting DDD by KO is the right bet. AJ can’t take any shot to the chin. He’s damaged goods and just watch carefully how AJ tries to win the fight just using his jab. He’s definitely not taking any risks because he’s been promised 100M+ to fight Fury.
If the Fury vs Usyk goes the distance, Usyk has no chance of getting a decision. The fix will be in that fight too.

Certainly, The fear of The Unknown regarding high profile, disasterious defeat is no longer a concern for these two heavyweights, as they have BOTH suffered their fair share of those.
Younger fans, it seems, have been trained by promoters to only accept the "Immovable object versus the Irresistible force"; which is actually absurd, given that this sport is done using only the human body and some padded gloves. But losses can actually serve to create a better fighter.
In decades past, the latter was better understood by the fanbase.
Top 15 boxers are, in the real world, always within a good combination of beating anyone else in that high bracket. Everyone that high has rare skill and drive.
That certainly applies here.
It is very common that highly muscular heavyweights are a bit on the chinny side. (Think back), and both of these contestants will have no trouble putting the hurt on the other here.
Going with Joshua and his somewhat better acumen.

"BUMS".
Franklin, Helenius, Wallen and Ngannou.
96 professional fight wins between them.
If a man is purported to be a tough guy, but is not a professional fighter who fights every few months against another self-proclaimed tough guy of similar size; then THAT might me your "BUM".
You'll have to find one (there are millions, so that won't be hard), and ask him about it to his face.
When you roll up on that oil rig, lumber camp, football practice, biker club, martial arts dojo, weight training gym or military base, you'll find your "BUM". He'll be the toughest guy there.
You just tell him, son. You Say "Hey *******! What kind of a ***** are you, huh? Wasting time here? Making chump change money here? And you think you can FIGHT?
What are you, a coward?!
Why aren’t you signed up to fight then, since you'reso tough? A Boxing fight with no choking, ball snatching, knee kicking...I mean a REAL fight, with clean rules and the guarantee of BIG money....if you are tough enough??!!!".
See how you do with that.
Because... those "BUMS" you're talking about, who actually DID have the courage and ability to throw their hat into the ring, would handle your assignment with ease, and beat any of those non-fighters you find like an NBA player would handle some delusional high school Jr. Varsity player on the Basketball court.
But will you?
....Know your sport's athletes, and show the respect, keyboard killer.
