      Imagine any boxer leading up to a fight not saying things like "we're having the best camp so far" or "x is knocking guys out in sparring left and right" or hyping up the opponent who is 10 levels below them in skill and other such cliches.

      Would be hilarious to see some overly honest fighter say something like "yeah camp isn't going that well and I'm not really into it but I'll show up anyway for the cheque."

      Bleh I'm too sick currently to think of anything clever but you get my drift.

        No interest. I preferred it back in the day when there was no stories coming out of training camps. Ive been hearing Joshua has been getting splashed about in sparring and ive been hearing that Joshua been splashing his sparring partners and sending them home. No interest, you never hear the truth or you do hear the truth but its mixed in with a bucket full of BS.

        Its all spin. Some will spin in a favourable way and some in a negative way.

          LMAO. Unnecessary.

          All I know is, Josh looked sharp, crisp and nimble in sparring. The fire/hunger is there again and he's just playing the Ruiz-esque game in the media by being nonchalant. The guy is angry and he's going to beat Ruiz from pillar to post on Saturday.

          I'd be shocked if Ruiz lands a clean left hook on Saturday - he would've to win with his right hand. But he would eat a lot of AJ's uppercut and there will be blood everywhere.

          No NY snake dating Abdo from PBC this time. 100% Josh vs 100% Ruiz. No excuses. Let's go champ.

          2x!

            I never said it was a problem.
            U took what i said out of context.

            My point is... It means nothing.
            No difference between them saying they had a ok camp and him saying they have to pay sparring partners extra cuz he slaughtering everyone.

            U get what i meant now?

                Any "article" from that rag can be immediately disregarded.

                They're scum, and not worth the click from any of you.

                    There are two threads on the board right now saying AJ is getting beat up by his sparring partners. I don't take any of it seriously.How he does in the fight is all that matters
