    I like Joshua and have said before tonight he was #1 even though I think Fury ks the best. He didn’t quit, but this is definitely a legitimate stoppage loss.

      No one cares about Deontay. Hell, most of his shine came because of AJ. Now he'll probably lose most of those fans that come to watch his shltfests.

        Holyfield/Cooper they fought for half a round before they got their mouth pieces back in, because they kept throwing punches.
        Hold on. Are you saying there wasn't a lull in the fight that's why the ref didn't put the mouth piece back in his mouth?

            He did, there’s no defending it.

            I’m sure people will though...

                I disagree, he was out of it and frankly he had nothing left. It was a good stoppage.

                  There was a lull in the action. AJ went down and went to the corner. That's a lull.

                    No he didn't quit. But you know what Americans are going to be about with AJ losing. It's like Christmas to them. They just want it to be worse than it was.

                    AJ threw on the inside with Ruiz in the 3rd round and got caught by the faster hook and went down. From then on it was an up and down affair. On the last KD, AJ went to the corner and was looking at the ref without any problems but he just called it. When you watch it you'll see. I was surprised when he did it.

                    Who knows if AJ could have come back or not. But he was really tired.

                      He might not have literally quit, but I hate that look in their DEFEATED eyes and demeanor.

                      You gotta show more balls than that for being the heavyweight champion.
