probably just tired from training and such but anyone else think he looked a little ill looking?
Looked almost green and falling asleep, waffling on and on about who knows what.
Again maybe just tired but he didn't really look with it to me
Nothing to see. We get these theories every fight week. Ugas is injured, Ruiz is slim and just wearing a heavy hat...
The action will be in the ring. You'll learn more in the first minute than you will from watching every second of the press conference.
As for the idea that Joshua needs to be nastier in conferences. Why? So some halfwit can say 'oh look, he really is tough'. Tough isn't anything to do with how many swear words you can cram into a sentence.
It appears obvious to me that AJ is as slimmed down as can be, meaning hes preparing to fight Usyk how he did Ruiz in the rematch.(he obviously thinks Usyk can't hurt him,so he is trying to not gas out,& is expecting Usyk to try to tire him)
That is my analysis on it as well, but the problem with slimming down is you are reducing your greatest advantage. I have no idea what is going on in Rob McCrappens mind.
I didn't notice it, I watched the Parker press conference and the Usyk one together and Joshua doesn't look as drained as he did for the Parker one (look at his face in both)
I do not appreciate his rambles he goes on but I also don't think those will lose him the fight.

You sir are lacking in sssstrategy! there is more than one way to render an opponent senseless! ahh I can hear it now... "Ohh! AJ is mixing metaphors, discussing the meaning of life, Usyk just buckled!!! Pat I think it was the obscure reference to Sartra, or it could have been the over used mental gyrations on how insecure we are to exist and know our own end...either way that was a round where AJ buckled his opponent. What do you think he does next round Pat? could maybe talk about the first cause as God, Aquino, that has put many to sleep!"
Exactly!!!
His weight tomorrow will be within his normal range. I don’t think he’ll be crazy light.

He’s been losing a lot of weight. I wouldn’t be surprised.
How old is he now? Yeah. He’s going to not feel 100.

I thought so but I never read much into it, how many times have fighters supposedly looked off/nervous/drained etc and then gone on to win? People say it about fighters every week.
he’s truly boring though. Everything he says is totally forced. He sets himself a little narrative and bases his whole press conference on it. His new one is that he’s constantly training and the fights are only part of training. I think he’s trying to be philosophical about self development etc. It’s just forced and cringe. Anyone who could think he speaks with any real depth must be extremely unintelligent.
but then again, Not many people are great at speaking off the cuff, especially in front of media, so I understand he has to plan his speech a bit.
Usyk will beat him anyway.
He was having flashbacks --->

Lol that is actually a f*cking awesome gif
Really well put together.
I think you forgot just how boring he is.
This. I'm an AJ fan but jesus, it was boring. If it wasn't for Marku, you'd see more action is a nursing home.
AJ needs to start being a nasty cunt.
He could talk a glass eye to sleep.
The guy don't half drone on coming out with nonstop metaphors.
Its only a matter of time before Eddie & his lovestruck fanbase starts claiming him as one of the greatest philosophers of the 21st century.
