Comments Thread For: Joshua Says The Game Plan is To "Go For The Knockout" in Usyk Rematch

[VislorTurlough]

Resume built on a 40 year old former champ coming out of retirement, who lost 9 of 12 rounds to Fury. And tomato can Whyte who has been exposed as this generation’s Bruce Seldon. His skill is in deep decline, but his delusions are in top form

This brotha is going to get hit with so many straight left hands with this basic mentality, that Oscar De La Hoya will get jealous and ask for a Pacquiao rematch

Usyk in 8. But seriously. If AJ goes for the ko, he's getting a beat down. Slavic fighters train for 15-20 rounds. They study the science of Not Getting Hit.

"So the goal now is to go back to basics and go for the knockout. I always feel, when I'm sparring or fighting people, I actually see their spirit get dampened. Honestly, when you're looking at this person directly in their eyes and watching their body, you can read the body and punch after punch this person is slowly fading. “Now when you're boxing, the art of boxing is to hit and not get hit. So you're kind of boxing to stay away. That's not really my style. My style is to be up close and personal and make it difficult for the person. So that's the game plan.”

I can't imagine how dumb he actually is. It makes me want to say "Nash out"

Unless you're a pillow puncher, very loss should be avenged with a knockout...one way or the other.

Outside of making the mistake of playing Lomachenko pitty-pat with this dude, I don't see any reason he can't get his belt back. 1t 4-5 rounds relentless body attack, nonstop. Take his wheels. Rematch the 6th round. That's what the fight would look like from the 6th round on. AJ SD. Fury comes out of retirement for that 200 million.

I doubt AJ ever takes the fight he’s not getting a 50/50 split with fury. He’s also delusional thinking he lost by only 2 rounds. If that was the case had he won the last round he could’ve been given a draw which is asinine lol. Even if he beats usyk fury won’t fight pay him more than 15-20M I don’t think. He’s been exposed twice now and in different ways

Unless AJ catches Usyk, he's gonna walk into a flurry of punches coming from everywhere and will get knocked out himself. The guy folds under punches coming at him. Everyone will say he got up from the klitcho punch, but the difference is it was 1 punch and down. When Ruiz was throwing 7-10 punches at him he folded. In the 12th round when usyk started throwing towards the end we saw the same happen and AJ just sit on the ropes. Granted usyk doesn't throw as hard as Ruiz but enough will put AJ down as I just think he's broken and can't take those shots to the head. Only way AJ beats usyk is by going at him like he did when he bought whyte and catching usyk with a head shot. But AJ is a different fighter and for whatever reason has poor stamina when exchanging.

A true tactical genius. Go for the knockout, in a boxing match. Hes definitely going to win now.

[War Room]

Joshua's not a bad fighter.

I've been following him since the amateurs and he was a wip then and still wip now. How is that possible if you're not a bad fighter??

AJ needed an oversized ring and a purpose built stadium to outrun a fat man. They didn't do him any favors, he thought he could box.

He can't pull a Ruiz here because Usyk is a great fighter who can box and move well. AJ's only hope is to maul him and that's more than likely not going to work and gas him early.

[Dakuwaqa]

He’s getting stopped

Doesn’t have the chin, skills or endurance to put it on a fighter like Uysk
