Jesus, AJ. What other former heavyweight champion ever needed 2 to 3 confidence builder fights? AJ really needs to watch Rocky III again.
Does that suffice as an example of another ““former heavyweight champ who needed 2
or 3 confidence builder fights”? Or is it only relevant when it involves AJ?Last edited by Roj; 10-25-2023, 07:54 PM.

Did AJ take 3 years off, balloon up to 500lbs and then take all that weight back off? or did he just have a nervous breakdown when he lost a fight?
Fury had an episode after popping for PEDs and blew up, went on drugs and drink and retired.
Strange that Fury's publicised 'mental health issues' are laudable. Yet guessing that AJ might have mental health issues is fair game to be used as a bat to beat him with.
You see it don't you?

Fury's return BS fights weren't main events either. Sefari and Pienetta fights were basically opening fights. AJ is main eventing mismatch fights on undercards full of BS Mismatches.

I don't think it'll matter. Wilder will connect sooner or later and I don't see any amount of tinkering with this style making a difference. But his team have gotta do what they believe gives him the best shot to win and as long as the big fight does get made, I don't care what preparation they make.
