This has been on the cards to happen since the Klit fight. Wlad should have finished him in the fight but let him off the hook.
AJ has:
No chin
No stamina
No footwork
No defence
This has been a long time coming.
His shortcomings got brutally exposed last night.
I am a Brit and have been entertained by Joshua and think he's a humble guy, but he doesn't have the heart for boxing.
His PR machine has shoved him down our throats in the UK and I've found it very off putting.
His PR machine will try and convince the public that this was a fluke and that Lewis came back against McCall and Rahman.
Those were once punch KOs. This wasn't. And AJ is no Lewis.
I honestly think AJ's career won't recover from this. Half of his flaws can be fixed, but half can't. If he is in a dogfight again he will lose again.
He'll fight once more, but there is no need to rush that fight either, that fight will then let us know where his head is within the sport. If it goes the same way there will be no place for him, your points are all correct and his mind took a beating as well this time.
That is a great point that I forgot to mention.
His body language was awful. Especially at the point of the stoppage. He didn't want to continue.
At times you could see the confusion and hesitation on his face when he realised this guy wasn't standing there to be hit and was firing back.
