Good grief, some of these comments reek of nuthug.gers. You can be a hater of someone and still speak the truth. Sure we know Lennox is not the biggest AJ fan, but please what part of what he said is a lie. I said pretty much the same thing after the fight. Fact again is we don't know if AJ is back because the guy he fought was barely putting up any resistance, looked not in the nest shape, he can't punch and he looked terrified at times. Joshua did what he had to do and looked good doing it but the fact remains he still hasn't been matched tough since his Andy Ruiz fight so until he is in there with a live fighter, the jury is still out whether he is back or not and that has nothing to do with hating on Joshua.

The reaction from the rest of the boxing world was just as decisive as the fans in attendance:
On the DAZN broadcast, commentator Chris Mannix called it a “truly fascinating fight” and “an impressive showing from Zhilei Zhang.” Mannix scored the fight in favor of Zhang.
A Twitter poll by MightyMaxBoxing drew 483 votes, with 71.4% voting that Zhang deserved the win, 10.4% scoring it a draw and only 18.6% believing that the judges got it right.
Rob Tebbutt, who covered the fight at ringside for ID BoxingNews had it 114-113 for Zhang, writing, “A chorus of boos around the arena at the decision. The Saudis want justice for Big ****… Looking forward to seeing Zhang again after that performance, I must say.”
NYFights.com’s Mike Woods was even blunter in his assessment, tweeting, “NOPE… not the right call… Zhang should win by 4.”
Boxing insider Jim Karas tweeted: “8 [rounds to] 4 for Hrgovic is criminal. There were at least four rounds where Hrgovic stopped fighting to take a stroll. Zhang won.”
Adam Abramowitz, a member of Ring Magazine’s ratings panel and co-host of the Punch to the Face podcast tweeted, “I had Zhang winning 114-113 in a really entertaining fight… Zhang far exceeded my expectations on Saturday.”
Jake Donovan of Boxingscene.com also scored it for Zhang, 114-113.

Vast majority had Zhang win. Period.
Hrgovic wasn't even doing clean work while getting damaged and dropped. People legit give equal credit to someone fluffing the guard as getting dropped and getting concussed. lol you idiots are autistic.
not all activity is equal. Zhang clearly did the better work.Comment

What does "back" mean exactly? As Lennox said, AJ looked good and did what he had to do.Comment

It seems that Joshua was nicely matched with Wallin. Joshua is being carefully handled and matched with B level fighters at the moment. Jermaine Franklin, Otto Wallin and the other guy he beat this year are not exactly known to be killers. I agree with Lewis. If he fights and beats up Zhang then we can say he is back. They will never match Joshua with guys like Jared Anderson, Frank Sanchez or other top lesser known fighters because they would crush his fragile ego.Comment

Joshua got brave and started bashing this kid he used to smash in sparring. A guy who couldn't punch. WOW JOSHUA IS BACK!Comment
