Comments Thread For: Hearn: Joshua Had Horrific Camp, Flu Before Fighting Povetkin

[The plunger man]

Joshua still took care of business like a pro ....WAR AJ

[Oshio]

I like the positivity of both fighters. None came to run. They were not afraid to trade.

Yeah, AJ had a bad hair day too, as well as the flu!

Seriously it was great performance by AJ. He kept his cool during a fast, confident start by Povetkin and took him out in deadly style!

I agree, considering he had the flu, etc., that was a solid performance. For AJ to acknowledge he could lose is one of the best ways not to lose because it keeps him on his best at all times. Mike Tyson always thought he was indestructible and his arrogance cost him. AJ on the other hand has a very realistic approach and a better sense of himself. I also thought AJ was being honest and forthcoming in this article and was just detailing how camp went and that it was not the perfect camp and he described it with no BS at all and that is admirable.

Povetkin is just a tough style for anybody. Stop lying Eddie, Joshua still knocked him out.

Lol why would he lie? Had it been a ****ty performance and fight with aj winning a dodgy decision I would understand the logic behind lying.

Because his man was probably in a spot where he should have been down by the time of the stoppage.

Hearn just can't give props to Povetkin for his good performance against the much younger and bigger man, huh?

“Regardless of ajs mindset povetkin, you seen, he is one of the best heavyweights in the world and they come absolutely desperate to win. And after that first round my bum hole was all over the place”- Eddie Hearn

My question for you is this. Did you just read the headline and ask that ****** question or are your comprehension skills so poor you just missed that part out?

Still trying to one up wilder lol. Wilder was ACTUALLY sick. And there’s proof since he lost like 20 pounds

[GGG Gloveking]

Quit making excuses and take some cough syrup

I know, right?! Had the flu: came in at like 250.

Muh fůcka should have said he was feeding a cold

Debatable but I don’t feel like it’s a reason to lie. If it was a ****ty stoppage and a statement like this came out I would be more inclined to believe there was a lie somewhere. Let’s be real if he didn’t come out and say something like that after the takam or Parker fights it’s unlikely it’s a lie. People just don’t like Eddie Hearn.
