Brave decision by AJ to fight at Spurs stadium as usually anybody using the home dressing room there chokes when things get difficult

This sucks, was really hoping we would get AJ vs Logan Paul next.

Looking forward to this. 2 upper top 10s fighting should always be applauded

This is the bout that will make aj credibile for me. If he wins convincingly I'll consider him a great of boxing.

beating a cruiserweight that looked ordinary against B and C class HWs is what makes AJ "credible" in your eyes? AJ needs to beat Wilder, Fury, Ortiz, and rematch Whyte and Ruiz to gain any credibility.

The robot is so scared that he needs a rematch clause, lol.

Just like Beyonce Whiner right?

I swear AJ reminds me of Lennox Lewis sometimes, he will lose a few fights he should win, like when Lennox lost to McCall & Rahman. AJ may get upset again in this one, I don’t know. I don’t feel confident for AJ.

Looking forward to this. I think AJ can win but it's a tough one. I'm not getting the attitude of many that AJ wins easy. When Usyk first mentioned wanting to fight AJ people said AJ had little chance and now Usyk is being dismissed. However consider this. Usyk has been a lot less active as a heavyweight and has also had shoulder problems to deal with, so his 2 performances at the weight would naturally be less. Also he's going from fighting top tier cruisers with lots to achieve to just ticking over against lesser opponents at heavy and he's not even got the Buzz of coming out as a champ in those fights. So it stands to reason he is most likely going through the motions in those fights. So I for one am not being lulled into a false sense of security thinking that Usyk isn't the same fighter. He's going to be truly motivated for this and I see him giving AJ plenty to think about. But AJs skills are underrated at times and I feel he can win. It's a great fight and I can't wait for it.

Everyone goes on about Fury and Wilder but Usyk is a true elite fighter and in the P4P list and if AJ can win I hope he gets the recognition he deserves. In terms of achievement I believe Usyk is the bigger fight over the other two

Clearly your using the wrong bait lol.

He's already beaten two of those and two of them don't want to fight him. And Fury will get it if he can beat wilder again and truly wants it
