Anthony Joshua wants to make sure he isn't nursing his boxing wounds well into old age. The former heavyweight champion from London said in a recent interview that he equates part of his legacy with his health.

You already a frágil boxer, it was very clear in your last fight, my advice “ stay away from Wildler” cause if you don’t , oh boy it will be really bad for you. You’ll retire for sure.

You may as well just retire now then. You’ve made great money, overachieved based on your ability.

I support that. Health is important

Yes, beat wilder make sure wilder is laying on canvas, rather than you. Beat ,fury, zhang and flip and that's about it. Can walk away healthy

Joshua is right! No one had greater boxing legacies than Joe Louis, Sugar Ray Robinson or Muhammad Ali and all three suffered from brain damage. There is point beyond which the risk is not worth it no matter how large the reward. You have to applaud people like Floyd Mayweather, Calzaghe, and Andre Ward who knew when to call it quits.

Based on AJ's post-fight behavior in his last two fights, I would say that the aim is not being achieved at the moment.

Then walk away AJ, because you are never going to be healthier than you are at this very moment.

Walk away,when you start talking like that then you are done ✅

Very dramatic and bizarre posts of this thread from hardcore Fury fans.

I have issued this warning before, the competition between Fury, Wilder, Usyk, Joshua.

Has entered into the latter stages, and these stages are all about the long game 'Which one of these fighters can out last the other'.

Who have all you guys got? Are you all backing Tyson Fury? The man who retires and sabotages fights at the drop of a hat? Go for it.

Joshua's traits whether that be in boxing or outside the ring seems to be geared all towards 'The long game'. And a statement like this from Joshua, is just in part once again reflecting those traits.

Those traits sometimes get in the way of his performance acutely and in the moment, but they actually help him excel over the long term.

This is proven by the very fact, that historically Joshua fights better in rematches win or lose. All the moves that Joshua has been making of late, is all geared towards the long game.

For me personally I am just going to observe this competition, between Fury, Wilder, Usyk and Joshua unfold.

Note: You may be thinking what competition is this guy talking about ? The competition between the premier fighters of this Heavyweight era 'It is in its latter stages'.

It has no physical location, it is not being held in any physical man made structure. It is a metaphorical competition, between the premier fighters of this era 'It is still on going between them all'.

Wilder has not gone away, and as delusional as it sounds? He most likely still believes he can spark Tyson Fury out. Anthony Joshua is still here, he has not retired neither is he sitting in a corner somewhere, these two fighters have lost fights 'But their ambition is still to be the best, as fighters this is their default settings'.

None one of these fighters can claim to be unequivocally the best Heavyweight of this era, but the moves and the fights that need to be made 'Are immanently upon us'.

All I am going to do right now, is observe the latter stages of their era unfold.
