Eddie is an idiot

Perhaps he’s just not that good? 2 high quality names on resume - 41 year old Klit and Parker. Don’t give me Povetkin. Paper champion who beat mediocre Chagaev and was given a gift decision over Marco freakin Huck.

Davidson’s instructions were amateur hour at best. Davidson is a hype job just like AJ. AJ is damaged goods and was at best a B level fighter. Hearn can’t live without AJ’s money and with Turki footing his tab, Hearn is just grifting until the Saudi oil reserves run dry. AJ has been his meal ticket for years. Hard to explain how on earth AJ has made over $400M as a B level fighter at best and Hearn will keep pumping him with no regard whatsoever for his health and safety. You can’t make chicken salad out of chicken sheet. Katie has more skills, passion, and heart than AJ any day.

With Canelo gone and AJ, “out of order” and in need of a brain, heart, and chin transplant, Hearn will keep riding that d i c k until AJ is drinking and being fed from a straw.

As Dandy Don would say…turn out the lights… the party’s over….they say that all good things must end. And end it has!

Does this mean the rematch is on and Eddy is giving AJ the secret of the pyramids, the benefits of his knowledge? Sounds more like Eddy is throwing AJ to the dogs. My Number 1 choice with some Number 2, meddle.

I'm not an Anthony Joshua lover, but all the actual Anthony Joshua haters out here would do well to remember that Anthony Joshua is one of the biggest overachievers in both the amateur & professional codes of boxing that the super/heavyweight division has literally ever seen ijs.

When all is said and done we will need to re-evaluate careers of two leading heavyweights that only 3 to 4 years were considered to be in the top 3 in the world - Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua. Both of them were knocking people out seemingly with ease and making a lot of money. Boxing writers and fans were singing their praises. But the history may not be kind to either of them. When their records are examined objectively and impartially with a bit of distance and passage of time, their achievements will most likely be down graded. Perhaps they were never that great in the first place? It is only the tough competition that exposes their true worth. Unfortunately, it seems when they faced tough competition, both of them struggled and failed. No point making excuses for their losses - perhaps their skills and chins are just limited.
