Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua Injured, Withdraws From Johnson Bout

Are constant injuries a side effect of steroid use?

Just asking before the Joshua wank brigade starts attacking me

Injuries are also a side effect of training hard.

Cool story bro

So Joshua trains harder than guys who are known as dedicated gym **** such as wladimir, Hopkins and mayweather?

If he gets a title shot the champion would be wise to have something in the contract where he is compensated in the event of a pull out

You are aware Wladimir got injured before his last fight? Hopkins and Mayweather are irrelevant - lighter fighters put much less strain on their body. Mayweather fights at 147, Joshua fights at 240 - there's just no comparison.

By all means accuse Joshua of taking steroids though - it's not as though he's ever undergone Olympic style drug testing... Oh wait.

Steroids are not a cause of injury btw.

Certain AAS can cause the dry joints, but that is very easily dealth with through other substances. Carrying around that amount of muscle and constant training are things that can lead to niggling injuries though.

Wladimir pulled out of his last fight. Mayweather pulled out of the fight with Marquez.

Hopkins pulls out DURING fights with "injuries"

I wonder why it's a cancellation and not to be rescheduled , King pin can't be in that sort of demand where he can't wait ten weeks ...can he ? Unless they have a better name in store for April 4th but I thought Johnson might answer a few questions.

Maybe it will be. Wouldn't surprise me if Hearn waited a month or two to limit the notice given to Johnson.

LOL @ the suggestion that Joshua's team is ducking Johnson

This injury might've saved Johnson's life
