    If that is the only concept you are able to comprehend, you are free to do so. However, it doesn't take anything away from my assertion.

        Just wish he'd lighten up a bit more in interviews, it's all a bit manufactured and 'branded' now but perhaps that's all part of the plan.
        Klitschko was old a decrepit when AJ fought him and Whyte is trash. It’s amazing how Whyte can turn down the most opportunities at a championship in the history of the division but you wilder hater still pretend BombZquad was scared of Whyte. DillyAnn ducked Pulev ffs man that’s all you need to know

          There's something a bit awkward about it all, yeah

          True, I'm a nobody. But reflectively applying your own rubric, you have implicated yourself as a fool also. My comment about AJ is simply my observation after reading/watching a great many of AJ's interviews

          Isn't Fury the same guy who uppercut himself and got battered in the amateurs by Pricey? And isn't he the same guy who got battered by McDermott?

          Most Brits who have followed Fury from the beginning never thought he would end up being this good. And there's a reason why no one gave him a chance against Wlad. Loads of Brits actually thought Haye had a chance against Wlad despite how average Haye was. But no one gave Fury a chance and there's a reason for that.

          That's basically what Josh is saying. Reading/comprehension isn't everyone's forte but don't blame the messenger if you can't comprehend something as simple as that.
          I am an idiot in many ways, yes. Just saying, in my opinion, there are 1-minute video clips of Fury that are more memorable and interesting than the entire back-catalogue of AJ's media output. Not too hard to understand. Oh did ****Mum get his ickle feelings hurt? Because somebody on the internet has a different viewpoint? Oh diddums

            AJ is just being himself. Nothing wrong with the way he carries himself.

              Klit was also old and past his prime when Fury fought him? Do you give Fury credit for beating Wlad.

                True, true.. But sometimes a lost can light that fire! Or it can extinguish it.. Right? My opinion is.. I think Fury has lit the fire inside of Wilder.. An will pay the consequences for it in the Trilogy!

                  When Fury beat him it was an ATG win, when AJ beat him 18 months later he was completely shot and the win was meaningless

                    I used the word plausible as a direct consequence of 'comprehending' both possible concepts.

                    The 'tribal theory' falls down due to the evidence Joshua has clearly introduced this approach in the last 3 years or so.

                    If what you assert really was to be tribal/cultural then he would have consistently projected this image throughout his amateur and professional career.

                    So you see, this does take away from your assertion, may I suggest a failure to comprehend?

                    I'm from Yorkshire, so I know thing or two about culture and I've not just started wearing flat caps, breeding whippets and calling people 'pal' in the last the last 3 year of my adult life

                      I don't hate Wilder, the HW division needs a 'chinny ****er.' The more delusional the better. Long live the King!!!
