Comments Thread For: Frank Warren: Anthony Joshua Is Made For Daniel Dubois

Lol your not making sense. I think I actually said 2 time in my original comment. Did I just forget it and found myself typing it ? Lol. You are a strange wee laddie.

You seem very defensive man. Why would you say 2 time in response to somebody saying Usyk would knock AJ out?

Not defensive, just banter. Your making the assumption, that my 2 time comment was in response to Joshua losing to Usyk. It is not. There's more to the comment than that. And I might have went with 3 time, if I believed he'll win the rematch. I don't. Just as I didn't think he'd beat him first time. Never make assumptions lol.

Until the rematch Aj has still never faced a top 2 heavyweight, & don't say Klitschko, he was unranked on tbrb months before the fight.

I will say Klitschko given he was ranked 1 before the fight and 2 after the fight. That's just applying common sense.

But if you insist on TBRB rankings on the night, I give you Andy Ruiz.

Either way, your statement is objectively, factually, definitively wrong.

Ok whatever you say dude.

Fury had essentially already beaten Wilder though by the time of the second fight. I think the vast majority of us feel he won the first fight. I personally considered him #1 before the Wilder rematch. Ring had him #1, TBRB had him #2 only behind Wilder himself.

Sure, he did beat him in the first fight, but officially he didn’t and he didn’t have the belt, he drew and at that point shouldn’t have been above Joshua and Wilder in the rankings. Everyone’s rankings are different and have an agenda in some cases, it’s not a sure fire way of ranking fighters. Look at the debacle of the boxing organisations ranking systems!

What they gonna call it, Battle of the lack of head movement? Brits that are stiff?
I did read year's back Dubois knocked out or over Aj in sparring, Dubois confirmed it & Aj said he should be careful what he's saying without denying it.
I wouldn't mind seeing the match up though.

Battle of the quitters... both have recently quit in the ring.

Wilder deserves respect in the game for sure, he’s no bum (as people refer to him on here), he started boxing late, he’s an Olympic bronze medalist and had 10 title defences. His resumé isn’t great but his team did a good job with him, up until not fighting Joshua for the undisputed title. I would have picked Joshua over him at the time. He’s exciting to watch and good for the heavyweight division, I hope he comes back.

Ring magazine is owned by Golden Boy (or was) and at the time when Canelo was promoted by them he was still ranked the number 1 middleweight in their rankings (before the first fight with Golovkin), even after he refused to fight Golovkin and chucked the WBC title as they tried to enforce the mandatory. Basically a long winded explanation as to why the Ring Magazine ratings are meaningless! Ha! Fury come back after 2 years after failing a drugs test and having issues within himself, had retired and had fought nobody of note in between the 1st and 2nd fights. He was the guy who beat the guy (Klitschko) but after the issues stated he wasn’t the true number 1 at that time.

The ease at which fury destroyed Whyte, shows how good Wilder is. Wilder is clearly a level above hype job Whyte.

This thread is about Josh v ddd. I'm sure it can happen oneday. I want to know if ddd really can knock Josh down like sparring stories suggest.
Frank Warren bought up idea that DDD destroys josh, so deliver us the fight please

Joshua had recently lost to a C level guy in the Ruiz. He was clearly the #3 at that point. Essentially every credible ranking system had Fury, Wilder as #1 and #2 at that point. Ring, TBRB, ESPN, Boxrec etc all had them as the top 2.
