    Yawn. Go look up the video or quotes from the time AJ was sh^t talking Fury for doing the same thing he did Saturday.

      He took his soul so badly that he came back and shut the guy out almost in the second fight? That doesn't compute....

        You spelled ran wrong, he ran him out

        You know as much as I dislike that wilder guy he comes and tries to take your head off. Joshua came in to run and survive, I mean after the loss you would of think he'd do something, he does not have the killer instinct..he gets hit he crumbles, that's why all the weight loss and running around the ring. Against a mediocre fighter like ruiz it worked but wilder for example only needs one good hit and it's good night..that's why Hearn is protecting his cash cow

          Yeah I'm not saying I enjoyed the fight much but he did what he wanted to do and won handily. I think it's obvious to most everyone that Wilder would catch him and lay him out at some point. Wilder is fun to watch if nothing else, he flails around the ring losing every round then lands one punch and it's over. We just keep waiting for the punch with anticipation.

              to answer your question, aj went in with a floyd-mentality, but he does not have floyd skills
              He supports showtime/pbc fighters. Hes a network fan. Only exceptions are fighters who have lost to mayweather e.g canelo, pacquiao

                  He fought exactly like Floyd. On his bike.

                    Okay, and when did he dismiss Fury as an opponent like you said? I know he said he wasn't impressed with Fury. But when did he dismiss him as an opponent?

                    Maybe that was another slip of the tongue from you.

                    There's been a few recently.

                      Joshua's performance is getting overblown, not surprising since Joshua's whole career has been overblown by Hearn and the UK press. He stuck to the game plan, boxed and moved against an obese man. Not exactly difficult. The times he actually tried to exchange, Ruiz jr got the better of him, and scared him back to getting back on the bicycle.
