    My minor point of contention was the idea that Fury is held to unfair standards. We want champions to fight respectable competition and to give their best effort in the ring. Fury self-sabotaging behavior prevented him from living up to that standard. He's been restoring his reputation recently, but now he decides to "retire" again and disturb the natural order of the division again. For the most part, Joshua has been a consumate professional who's been upholding the standard of what I expect from a champion. He's been getting paid very well, so nobody should throw a pity party for him. However, I think AJ has held up pretty well under the pressure...but he clearly needs a sports psychologist if he doesn't have one.

    Fury/Wlad 2 should've happened, but I wouldn't be able to sit through it. I wasn't a fan of HW boxing, and that fight killed my interest until AJ and Wilder began to ascend.
    I gotcha. Indeed, AJ has never shied away from a fight. Win, lose, or draw, the man shows up.

        Bit harsh to wish his life ends.

          Good post!

          • This new narrative that “Joshua has been under extraordinary pressure” is a bit much. He’s the one who exercised an immediate rematch with a superior talent. Same backing of silly nationalist fans that is applying this mythical pressure is what’s made him rich. Spare us the waterworks. Guy needs serious psychiatric intervention and at very least to get the F away from his sht eating grin 2 bit conman promoter

            • I was disappointed in Joshua during this fight. This fool has been told to come in, lean on Usyk, rough him up and use his size and what does he do, the same damn thing he did in the first fight. He tries to box with Usyk. It took him until the ninth round to finally start going to the body and hurting Usyk. I am sure his corner started telling him to rough Usyk up from round 1. Joshua just doesn't have that same killer instinct like Tyson, Holyfield, Hagler, Lewis, Wilder, Fury, Hearns, Leonard, etc. He is a nice man, very polite and articulate. Then this dude has the crowd cheering for Usyk after the fight. WTF is this. Joshua is soft like a baby's a$$. Wilder may not be the most articulate dude out there but from round 1 to round 12, he is looking to take somebody out in the ring. Fury would beat Usyk. I really believe that Joshua is afraid to get his face busted up in a fight going in for the kill.

              This was supposed to be a damn fight not a tennis match.

              • Pundits saying Joshua did better - whatever. Joshua took less risks. He didn’t get beat around the ring, but it came at the price is not doing any damage to Usyk.

                After the first fight, Usyk looked like he’d been in a violent car crash - he was spotless tonight.

                Just blows my mind that - with the biggest fight in boxing history on the line - Joshua settled for the moral victory.

                  I am sure I can find more offensive things said by Fury about people, way more than Joshua.

                  But that sort of stuff happens, I am sure in your everyday life? You have heard people say some racist, and outlandish things.

                  And those same people are all quiet in the presence of certain demographics.

                  Joshua inside and outside of the ring is held to a higher standard. He has been the most heavily criticize boxer in the sport.

                  You seem to be vicariously living through these people who beat Anthony Joshua. And your behavior right now is very low.

                  I am not going to call you any names , or play the game you are playing 'I honestly don't need to'.

                  Because people can see who is what right here mate.

                  You can reply back, and answer my questions. But I won't be saying anything else on the matter.

                  white members of public!!

                  I saw with my own eyes eddies phone when Joshua sent his racist Boll0x to him.

                  Didn’t we have a little chat the other day? I knew you was going to meltdown. You are another butthurt Biatch who is sad their idol was ended.

                  deal with the fact I was right and you was wrong. I just wanted you to see me say It clearly. I know you like that. Now run along. I aren’t after a conversation with you mad dog lol.

                  all this because Joshua lost. I guess you live through Joshua huh? We talking about today you sausage and usyk won.

                  What a freak you are. I wasn’t even gonna bother you because I know your emotional when Joshua loses. But you had to attract the attention.

                  Fecking muppet you mushy

                  • Pretty good fight, AJ fought better but at the same time oddly held back and missed opportunities. Usyk got it done but looked pretty sloppy, I think the layoff/war definitely hurt him.

                    • At the end of the day round 13 ding ding ding. This is usually how these rematches go, its precedent. AJ had success to the body, good on team Garcia. Usyk was lucky he did not get robbed, he should have finished it earlier. Those godamn judges I swear...
                      Take it easy on AJ he might be concussed. If anyone ever suffered one, your really not in your right mind for a bit.
