The truth is AJ drew from he same well as others, and beat similar competition. He never really did anything beyond what a fighter like Frank Bruno did.
        Comparing Joshua's resume to Wilders is the definition of false equivalency. They all s-ucked argument never holds any water and is used to defend cherry pickers to pretend bums are the same as contender. Joshua 8 top 10 wins to Wilders 2 and with better quality wins. If it was so easy...Wilder would have done it. Joshua doesn't compare to Ali but wilder doesn't compare to Joshua. There are levels of accomplishment in this sport. It's not all the same.

            Speak of the village Idiot and he will appear! You have to date never been able to explain exactly what makes Joshua's quality of opposition better than Wilders. Your whole case is predicated on the false assumption that Ortiz was not a quality opponent which is wrong. Ortiz's record speaks for itself and is buttressed by the ability to watch tape and see the skills displayed.

              Brings up the philosophical issue of whether Joshua is responsible for what he said if he will never be able to recall saying it.

                Resumes vs achiements. Wilder went to the UK and KOd somebody. AJ went to NY and got KOd and run out of town. Don't get offended, thats another point of view. Another opinion; Eddy over marinated.

                  In the old early days of boxing, a loss didnt make fans say a guy should retire. Because guys fought hundreds of fights so a knockout loss was nothing. Guys today fight 20 something times and its an entire career. So one loss is a big talking point amongst fans and the public. AJ, ignore the noise, dust yourself off and get back in the gym. Fight again and again. You're young. You got your bell rung, big deal. Focus on improvement and come back stronger

                    Dubois rematch or retire. If comes back to stop Dubois in the rematch, he can at least retire knowing he's improved in rematch results three times. He can't beat Fury or Usyk and a Wilder fight is pointless with no belts at stake. I'd love to see Parker get his shot at Dubois. I'd also like to see Zhang vs. Bakole in a title eliminator.
