    Thank you AJ!

    Boxing needed that. Fury really embarrassed the sport by allowing a complete novice to look competitive with a HW champion.

    Whether it was a Fury rematch, AJ, Wilder or whoever else was linked to fighting Ngannou, we needed that guy to do a professional job. Turn up in fight shape and expose Ngannou for the raw novice he is.

    As you all probably know I HATE these crossover type fights but I’m very glad Joshua set the record straight tonight.

    Yeh that gypsy trash Fury really made boxing look bad.

    AJ did boxing a favour tonight.

      I wanted Ngannou to win just for a laugh but AJ did things in style there. Hope Ngannou is okay, and I hope that puts an end to these ****** crossover fights.

        Picked up Fury's mess. If Usyk doesn't beat Tyson then I hope Joshua does.

          Boxers progress to this level and learn the art. What you saw in Riyadh was a guy who simply didn't have the defence to go into a ring against a guy who hits very, very hard.

          Watching a trained professional heavyweight deliver a completely free right hand was a bit sickening to me.

          Boxing hasn't got that long to go in my view - the softies and politicians will eventually get it banned. These gimmick and crossover fights are dangerous. They could be the end of the sport.

            Yeah I definitely agree about Ngannous defence. I think hes got a good chin but he was way too open, basically took those shots completely clean. I did think he'd hold up better than that but after that first knockdown it seemed pretty obvious he was ****ed.

              I don't think anyone takes those shots.

              He can definitely take a punch though. I was impressed he got up from the first knockdown. That was a very big shot.

                Joshua delivers. He made it look easy with highlight reel KO's. Fury won't want any of this AJ. It's a nightmare for him and he knows it.

                  Definite W for boxing tonight, that was honestly one of the biggest HW KO's I've ever seen, up there with Wilder vs Breazeale and Lewis vs Rahman, scary ****e
