    I know Joshua does not want to go out like he did against DuBois, but some of those names are just begging for a replay. Just fight Zhang. Gauge yourself against a dangerous but flawed fighter also slumping. DuBois, Parker, or any of the young guns will be heavily favored over Joshua at this point.

      Like wilder his flimsy “legacy” has been exposed. One more loss and he becomes completely reappraised. Hearn desperation is transparent. Once Joshua is retired, Matchroom becomes a domestic level promotion outfit. Even Turki is making jokes about what a dope he is

        Based on what we saw the first time, a rematch is a ****ing terrible idea. I get that you could have said that after Ruiz too, but this is different. Dubois isnt turning up out of shape ever, wasnt a late replacement in the first fight, and I dont think AJ took him lightly like he may have done with Ruiz.

        As for AJ/Fury? much better fight imo. I'd favour Fury but I wouldnt write AJ off anywhere near as much as vs Dubois. Mainly because Fury is getting old himself and isnt a big hitter.

            This is why Turki Tko & Dana are forming they're own lane, entitlement.
            These 2 are so entitled to they think the 2 times! mic stealer just gets a belt shot. For once Edward your 6-4 hypejob needs to earn it, they ducked the rematch & Fury's thankfully gone, get over it & move on. The rest of the division already has.

              Tyson says he is retired so he has to make that pitch to him now and not get embarrassed again against DDD.

                AJ gets too much hate imo.

                He did a lot for UK boxing and those years from 2015-2020 he was must watch, he still kind of is.

                No he's not as good as was hoped, he seemed to me that he never really improved from how good he was as a prospect (which was very good). Never learned those veteran moves etc.

                But he has had an entertaining and mega successful career, he's done alright for himself.

                  My personal view on AJ is that it was the people managing and the people around him that put too much pressure on him to be something he's not.

                    It's a tricky one , just being brutalised by Danny doesn't put him up there as Hearn seems to think .Bakole would be a good shout , both coming off KO losses , stick it on in Africa .Bill it as .......' time to go' ...!
