Comments Thread For: Hearn: Anthony [Joshua] Put In a Performance That Put The Heavyweight Division On Notice

[hhh1200]

Don't know much as Davis but he appears to have AJ fighting that come forward catch and shoot style before the Ruiz defeat. That being said if he goes in there and smashes Hrgovic and Zhang (I think he should take this fight since Fury and Usyk are tied up for 2 fights) I think it's safe to say he is on the Vlad and Lennox rebuilding arch after their defeats. Nice how he has worked his way back vs sitting around and twerking waiting for paydays

AJ busted up his out of shape sparring partner. That puts no one on notice except Fast Eddie who hast to find a way for Joshua to avoid Parker now.

Parker took out the most feared man in the division up until yesterday and didnt take a back step and didnt blink an eye.

Parker put the division on notice that at 31 he's the new Boogeyman! He also delivered 2 choice wins for the Saudi paymasters in Riyadh. He's a humble dude who's earnt the money and respect.

If AJ wants to humble himself and prove he's spesh then sign up to fight Parker on the Usyk/Fury undercard and tell Fast Eddie to fück himself.

Put up or shut up!

i thought he beat parker already

Hearn must of blew his load in his seat when AJ won. The pressure that they no longer have to worry about Wilder. Or who knows, perhaps now that Wilder looked like total garbage, they'll call him out.

The Hearn/AJ romance is so disgusting. AJ has to be thanking Hearn every night for keeping him away from Wilder of the past up to this point. The point that everyone feared would come one day. Wilder ain't Wilder anymore.

With a lot of help from the ref 5 years ago.

Its a whole different story now. Parker is better and AJ diminished.

Theres a score to settle that would make for great viewing.

Boxing is so crooked. Joshua did nothing except pay off Wallin to stand in front of him like a heavy bag. I hope Wallin got paid enough to make up for him humiliating himself and wrecking his rep and career and getting a broken nose in the bargain.

i knew this would be a narrative, but its possible

His opponent did nothing but throw weak jabs. I don’t recall walking throwing anything meaningful in terms of hooks or crosses. And frankly I’m getting tired of seeing boxers show up with no intention of winning, it’s really harming the sport. This is what it looks like when boxers are overpaid I suppose

Wallin didn't throw one single punch with bad intentions, nor did he even move around. He stood in front of Joshua and impersonated a punching bag. Wallin looked nothing like he did in his previous fights. He just beat Gassiev for petes sake! Wallin threw the fight, deliberately lost, took a dive. There were two fake fights that night, the Di Mori thing and this one. But everybody knew that Di Mori was a jobber whose role was just to lose, preferably not in such a comically obvious way as he did against Haye. The Joshua - Wallin fight was supposed to be for real. Wallin was a live 1 to 4 underdog, not 50-1 or 100-1.

Yes, in the wonderful world of boxing it is possible. Boxing has been crooked since its inception and it just gets worse over the years. 1. It attracts the underworld because of its violence; and 2. It is the easiest sport to fix.

I don't hate AJ. I don't even know the guy.

Parker was prohibited by the ref from doing any inside work that would have hurt AJ in 2018.

AJ did nothing in that fight to hurt Parker and knew if he went the distance he'd get gifted the decision. AJ always plays it safe. The less risk the more he's into it.

If you want to remove all doubt that 2024 AJ is better than 2024 Parker then call him out and insist the Sauds pay for it. Im sure the Sauds would front for that more than AJ Wilder.
