    Yeah, I think love transcends logic in those cases. He cared about his kid but man he shouldn't have aired this stuff out.

    It's like he made it worse for AJ who is going through some stuff and we've got every armchair shrink trying to diagnose his level of pussiness and how they would be more manly than him.

    Now he's gotta deal with that too.

      Yes, no matter what it was about and whether words needed said you do not do it in the ring and t ake th e shine off the other guys moment. It's also just common business sense, it's not a good look for any team to be arguing in public.

        Yea, to me it's no different than if he revealed an injury or some physical flaw. The guy engages in combat. Outing his weaknesses might seem like an ok thing in today's empathetic/PC culture but it's only going to be an uphill climb for AJ now. Everyone's going to play into that now. Well, maybe not a class act like Ruiz, but can you imagine the mental games Fury and Wilder will play?

          Whats the back story here, AJ not feeling right in Miami or backstage or something and the old man didn't want the fight to go ahead? I imagine he's just emotional after seeing his son lost, in saying that Joshua didn't really look himself so who knows, he wasn't making any excuses and neither was Hearn though .

            No, he was not out of line. Eddie Hearn has been put in charge of Anthony Joshua's career and does all of Anthony Joshua's bidding for him. He drafts all of AJ's contracts and even rubber stamps them without his permission.

            It was Eddie who chose the venue, opponent and date with no rematch clause for this fight. So in other words, he set Joshua up to fail. He not only has successfully managed to ruin Anthony Joshua's career but has ruined his own father's company Matchroom Sport as well.

            Now Anthony Joshua stands to lose $Millions of dollars, since he is no longer the champion because of Eddie Hearn's arrogance, incompetence and ******ity. He even sabotaged the Wilder fight that AJ and the fans wanted so badly by attempting to marinate it for several years.

              Hearn ****d AJ's mum right before the fight. That's why AJ couldn't focus and why his dad was mad with Eddie. Hearn is a depraved, sadistic psychopath. It's only a matter of time before he murders somebody or gets murdered himself.

                Waiting for the transcript to come out:

                AJ’s Dad: “Eddie, you got my boy knocked out by this fatty when you could have had Wilder do it for $50M???”

                      I agree that guy did go overboard. He makes it sound like Hearn is Hitler. LOL.
