I kind of got what he was trying to say, but he didn't articulate it well... and it was completely the wrong time and place for it. Maybe it was a result of some kind of oxygen depletion plus the obvious frustration and disapointment.
People did criticise him when he was a good loser... then they weren't happy when the bad loser came out. Have to say, I prefer a good loser to a bad loser.
As for where he came from and being entitled: I disagree. He grew up in a tower block on an estate in Watford. It's not the worst of the worst, but it's not great either.Damn Wicked

You grew up in Hertfordshire. Was a GB sponsored Athlete. Turned pro with the most lucrative debutant contract in UK boxing history. You’ve never had it that tough, just stop with this bullsh**.
AJ ain’t from the streets, he needs to drop this “Femi” persona, you sold a bit of weed to make a few quid when you were teenager, that was it.
You ain’t from the Bronx, you ain’t even from Hackney, Croydon, Brixton etc. Someone like Whyte has had a much tougher road than AJ both personally and professionally.

Growing up tough can happen in Hertfordshire too. Watford for instance is not some idyllic middle class haven. Not that i'm saying AJ had it really tough growing up but just because you're not from the mean streets of the Bronx or Brixton does not mean you have it easy. Crappy logic.
AJ isn’t some street kid, he comes from a good family, went to a good school and has had a cushioned life as an athlete. All this “came through the mud” is complete bullsh**.
