Better to learn and get KO'd in sparring then in a fight to be honest. It's sparring it might happen anytime, lose a bit of concentration and you're down or trying to breath from a body shot.

That and it's heavyweights. They all get knocked out. Well, mostly.

Originally posted by NorvernRob View PostI wouldn't normally post rumours, especially about sparring sessions, but I saw this on a FB boxing page earlier and the guy seemed to know plenty of details and claimed to have heard it from two different sources. (A journalist and someone around the GB camp).
Apparently Joshua was recently dropped hard by Team GB's Lawrence Okolie, was hurt and took a while to recover. It was witnessed by Rob McCracken and some of the other GB boxers. The session was shut down and Joshua went home for the day.
This was when the Klitschko fight was falling through and Hearn was looking for another opponent - Sky wanted David Price in an all-British December fight, but after watching AJ get dropped McCracken told Hearn not to put him in with Price as his confidence had taken a hit and Price was far too risky a fight, so Hearn then went and made an offer to Molina and here we are.
Sound legit?

He lost to pot smoking heavyweight Chris Arreola, even the fat guy with fast hands would beat Molina Andy Ruiz
