Why do people still act like AJ is a really good fighter

[4truth]

AJ has all the tools to be great with the exception of the 1 that matters most and that's the will to walk through fire. I blame Hearn and the public as much as I do AJ. He was built up as the next coming of an ATG and never really pushed after the Klitsko fight IMO. I think he should have been in America and Japan and Russia and everywhere else in the world taking on all comers instead of staying at home and fighting whoever came to him. It's not that he has took the easy fights he hasn't compared to others but 60,000 plus fans cheering for you everytime does play a roll. He could have had global success and been hardened by fighting outside his comfort zone but he didn't and I honestly think it made him soft to a degree.

He may or may not have the will to face that fire but he's made of very flammable material. You can't train a chin.

Because he has a great resume and was ripping through everyone early in his career

Lol

I think it's premature and silly to write off Joshua after two losses. He underestimated Ruiz and lost to a very good boxer in Usyk. Now if he had lost to Martin, Breazeale or Takam, it would be much easier to say that he's just not that good. But that is not the case.

Well then he would be pretty bad

He is very good. I would favour him to beat everybody except Fury and Usyk.

Typical deluded UK fan

Olympic gold medalist. It’s not boxing ability he lacks, its the warrior inside that wilder and fury displayed that he lacks. Also stamina too.

After 8 rounds against Usyk, the fight was a draw, but AJ just got tired after that

that’s the main things he’s missing. he’s not a dog

If anything Joshua is underrated on here. You have all the Wilder clowns and Fury fans hating him. Your boy Wilder is the definition of a hype job, fought bums to make himself look good and the American media hyped him as some killer.

[Boxing-1013]

The guy that still is claiming Wilder is #2 is saying Joshua is overrated? There's like 5 guys with better wins than Wilder. Used Joshua's name for marketing and idiots ate it up.

? A lot of people would have Wilder number 2 still. Anyone with a brain has him 2 or 3 right now.

What world are you guys living in over there

DELUDED

If there are people out there than truly think that, i'm not seeing them. The only people I could envision feeling that way are super casuals in the UK that dont even watch boxing really but know him because hes a household name, and might tune in to his fights only. Kind of like if you went back 20 years and asked random people in the street who the best HW in the world was at that time and most would say Mike Tyson.



Not really, hes looked vulnerable in the majority of his top wins, including that one, but at the end of the day he was consistently facing guys ranked in the top 10 and winning, no other HWs were doing that.

Lol, that tagline again.

He beat 2 good fighters in their relative primes - 2! And both were at home, and neither guy was that good, and neither win was that impressive.

If you looked objectively Wilder was never top 3. He beat nobody, he was all hype.

Man, just stop before I put you on ignore.

I am not British, English is not even my language. But it is what it is Joshua beats Wilder badly. Joshua is better boxer than Wilder ever was.
