    What's race got to do with anything you idiot, the only one "addicted/obsessed" with anything it's you, you're constantly harping on "day zin" as you call it and matchroom, if anyone is an Incel bro it'd be you, strange guy... [/QUOTE

      Joshua may have a little bit of an advantage here that is not really being mentioned... he has dealt with a rematch in a major fight already. Usyk never has had to. It will be interesting to see what adjustments Joshua and his (hopefully mostly new) team will make off the loss, against what Usyk and his team may do off the win.

      I feel Usyk wins, and I also feel Joshua may not be able to change much about what he does at this point of his career. But it is worth mentioning.

          Usyk is a first rate boxer, but Joshua very much fought Usyk's fight. There are reasons to believe, therefore, that Joshua could indeed turn it around in a rematch. It's not as though Joshua founded his career on being a pure boxer and has now met a better pure boxer. There are major parts of what made him a success that he did not tap in the fight.

          Of course, some of what made Joshua fight Usyk's fight was down to Usyk himself, but I don't think we can attribute it all to Usyk. Some of it was down to a combination of poor strategy and reticence on Joshua's part. In the middle rounds, Joshua did make some adjustments and did, I believe, hurt Usyk to the body (but not enough). The swollen eye was clearly a hinderance in the latter rounds and though Joshua's conditioning was good, his gas tank was inferior to Usyk who was bossing things late on.

          It probably will have to be a case of Joshua ******** on finishing it in the first half of the fight.

            Now that's the kind of indomitable fortitude I am talking about. If and when AJ regains his old confidence back look out! Usyk will be in a lot of trouble. Just keep in mind that Joshua is undefeated in rematches. He knows the necessary adjustments he has to make in order to be successful in the rematch. He just has to take many more risks that's all.

                I like AJ man. I don't think he has enough to beat Usyk though and that's nothing against AJ, Usyk is very talented

                  AJ spoke like a little kid at the past press conference who just been scolded for wetting the bed. But to be honest, even though he said some questionable things like still learning on the job and other crap, he takes his losses like a man. A humble man. Unlike Beyoncé Wilder who blames everything and everyone except himself.

                  Wilder is only humble when he wins so he can talk about how he started boxing because of his daughter and blah blah blah... Then his head got too big for his 78 IQ brain. Of course he has ret@rd strength. But he honestly is a piece of **** unless he's winning a fight. I hope fury retires him.

                    Still 3rd. AJ lost but that doesn´t mean Wilder can box now.

                      I disagree. I know fury used his size and ability to stay distant, but he beat wilder by imposing his will and size more than anything else. He beat him up, laid on him and just roughed wilder up. Wilder was beat by a guy using his size and strength.
                      So. he stayed distant but lay on him and roughed him up? Make your mind up..

                      Fury realised that Wilder can only operate at mid-range. Too far out and his footwork and the telegraphing of his shots let him down, his inside game is pitiful. Therefore Fury was either all the way in or all the way out.

                      That's called controlling the distance.

                      Can't believe I have to explain this ****.
