    I didn't think Roy would be a good trainer but what I've seen of him has impressed me. I thought Bryant Perella looked much improved after working with RJJ.

    AJ looked improved under Robert Garcia, but I don't think AJ is a bad choice whatsoever if he's deciding to switch it up.

      AJ needs to learn how to get though a fight without gassing out. If he could figure out how to breathe in the ring I think that would solve a lot of his problems.

        At this point, not even God could help AJ if that was his trainer.

          he’s a scared and timid fighter now.

          a lot if his tiredness in the ring is nervous exhaustion.

          Once that comes into your game, it’s really hard to get of it. That’s why he’s been talking a good game like before the Usyk rematch but once the bell went, he still spent most most of the fight looking scared apart from a few moments.

          Nobody is gonna change that mentality except himself, but It’s really hard to shake

            What will actually happen when AJ fights Wilder

            Meh. Your "real outcome" should have been Jones / Johnson.

              Virgil Hunter is the only hope for AJ.

              AJ is lost as a man. AJ needs a father figure training him.

                I don’t necessarily disagree with that. But I believe that’s his major weakness. Whether or not he can fix it is ultimately going to determine his future.

                  You're not wrong here. I think this is one of his biggest problems. Even a less skilled fighter can beat the top dogs if his tank is right.

                  I think that part of the remedy for AJ is to slim down, do tons of roadwork, push his sails into a new capacity. Something around 225 (or somewhere under ~230) should be a good weight for him. This 245 thing, he's too big.

                  Next would be just to sharpen his punches up. He chambers his jab too far back, do what Manny had Vlad doing with long half jabs and leaving it out there as a probe after the jab to prevent counteres. AJ has his guard right on his chin, push those arms out like the zombie guard.

                  Another thing, he doesn't really peck & shoot. He pecks well, but you need the shoot on a 32nd note speed. This would probably solve 60% of his problems during engagement. Opponent jabs, you peck & shoot a hard jab down the pipe, it hurts and gives you opportunites.

                  It's all whatever, he'll never do it. He's too ****** and the data is burned in.

                    Every fighter other than Ward got touched up under Hunter. As I stated, I believe trained him to be a trainer. Angulo broken eye, Bert both eyes closed, and Khan sent to another dimension.

                    I'd go with Toney Harrison (technique will be point on) or Banks .

                    Fernandez and Garcia are trash.

                      Maybe that's where RJJ comes in. Joshua needs to be looser in the ring. You can see him burning energy with every tense movement.

                      Don't mind the idea of switching up trainers regularly.
