He's different from those guys. He has got his money tied up into different ventures and he's hands on with everything he's doing. And his lifestyle is simple, unlike the other guys and he has made more money than them without the money consuming ventures they get entangled in.
Well, if he starts fighting the likes of Hughie Fury and David Price, he won't make more than that.I don't foresee Joshua being in the $2M-$3M range. Hell if he's only able to make $2M-$3M a fight I'd suggest he retire to cuz sh^t has gone horribly wrong.
Even if he beats Ruiz, I don't see AJ staying in the game for more than 5 years max tbh. He'll just scheme for the big fights with Wilder, Fury, Usyk and maybe Dillain Whyte. Then fight a few mandatories and retire. Losing would hasten it and once he gets those 4 fights and a couple of exhibition fights, he'll retire for good.I've heard that to & that is a good sign he doesn't stick around too long. I've just seen too many mfers stick around too long to have much trust in anyone hanging the gloves up at the right time. I'm pro Joshua or anyone else doing it doe.
Well, you're judging him based on the only two big fights he has had in his career, where he won the mind games before the fight, not his whole career. Wlad wasn't motivated for their fight and Wilder was just erratic with his windmill. Just watch the other fights where he struggled against bums.Limited?!?!!?! Wut. He's got skills & movement I've never seen in a HW let alone a mfer as big as him. And his ring IQ & sense of where things are at in a fight are in the top 1% of HW's around today or sh^t maybe ever as bold a statement as that is to make.
The Wilder fight also exposed his limitation because Wilder scored the two knock downs at midrange. If Wilder had focused on working his body, Fury wouldn't have enough gas to keep the fight on the outside for the period he did and he definitely would've stayed down after the 2nd knock down.
Stiverne went 12 rds with Wilder in their first fight and he isn't known for his chin. A lot of the bums Wilder fought have no chin and they lasted more than 8 rds in the ring with him. Also, Ortiz would've gone 12 rds if he didn't gas because he didn't get knocked out cold. He just got up late.And a guy with no chin doesn't go 12 with Wilder. Thats a highly biased statement about him or you DKSAB.
Fury got knocked down by a cruiserwieght and some factory worker for fu..ck sake.
Fury is 6'8/6'9 not 7ft. Wlad is a genius when it comes to fighting behind his jab and using his reach but we all saw what happened to him with the vicious uppercut when AJ caught him on the inside. In boxing, you can't fight at long range for 12 rds and you'll have to fight on the inside and at midrange from time to time.Why is a 7 foot mfer who a boxer looking to fight on the inside?!?!?! He can duck & dodge punches like he has ESP when people are on the inside with him doe & you are underplaying that.
Also, I don't even think Fury has that much reach advantage compared to AJ and since he likes fighting on the back foot and AJ is at his best when fighting on the front foot - he'll catch Fury. AJ also doesn't just swing windmill like Wilder, he throws high percentage punches and mixes things up.
LMAO at AJ being more predictable than a Wilder who telegraphs his punches. Just watching Wilder alone, you know what he's going to do before he moves, lol. Once he sets his feet, he's going to paw his jab and swing his right. That's WIlder in a nutshell.I actually think Wilder's awknessness makes him a tougher opponent for Fury than Joshua is. Joshua is more predicatable.
AJ mixes things up and whenever he lets his hands go with his swift combo, it's a thing of beauty to watch.
LMAO at AJ avoiding a clown like Fury, lol. He'll jump at the chance of fighting Fury before WIlder if Fury has a belt. The reason why he's more focused on Wilder is because of the undisputed crown.I think Joshua is more likely to avoid Fury if he wins the titles back til ideally Fury gets into some jam again cuz the mfer is a lil off no argument from me with that. Then he'll fight a diminished Fury. I tend to think Fury fighting Wilder when there was no reason to fight him suggests Fury will fight anyone as long as he feels he's getting a fair shake & his value.
And no, Fury picked Wilder because he believed he'll beat him and he did if not for the corrupt American judges. Fury is smart and he knew beating Wilder would throw him back into the mix and it did. Taking the AJ fight was a risk not worth taking because AJ isn't as one dimensional as Wilder is and AJ would've destroyed him with body shots before taking his head off. It's also the reason why he decided to go with Frank Warren despite the offers he had from Matchroom.Comment

Froch has granite chin and he fought in a very weak super midweight era. Froch was slow, crude and robotic.
Even Andre Dirrell who's mentally weak beat Froch to a pulp in the UK but he was robbed. I still remember that fight like yesterday and it's one of the biggest robberies in history. It's up there with the Fury vs McDermott fight.
McCracken is more like AJ's teacher/mentor, hence he'll never leave him because without McCracken, he won't be where he's today. He deserves more credit for who AJ became than the noisy Hearn who most of these clowns think controls AJ. Eddie Hearn just like talking a lot - AJ made him not the other way around.Comment

Doesn’t matter who the trainer is, Joshua doesn’t listen. It’s going to have the same result with Joshua quitting again.Comment

Definitely the first time I've heard a fighter say "I gotta watch the documentaries" lol but it's all goodComment

A decent defence coach would be worth the money spent, as long as Joshua can listen and stick to orders. The main thing is it needs to be someone that commands respect; any one of us armchair coaches could tell him that he needs to loosen up his neck/shoulders, move his head more, keep his left glove up and learn how to clinch better when in trouble but it would go in one ear and out the other.Comment
