    AJs not fighting on the 19th April in Manchester now and will be on the Groves v Froch undercard on the 31st May.

    He seems to be getting injured in training a lot not a good sign for the future I was looking forward to seeing him on the 19th and now by the time he next fights it will about a 3 month break fom his last fight.

    Was thinking this earlier, he does seem very prone to niggly injuries. Personally I think he hits the weights to much which causes strain on the muscles which is what he seems to be complaining about a lot.

    dont want him to get too bulky & then get tired late on in fights, like Bruno.

    I think it's a sign of overtraining.

    I think Big AJ is taking Larry Holmes advice.

    Got a feeling he is sometimes put on these cards to sell tickets and then he pulls out a couple of weeks before ! He has got a few annoying injuries and a lot of pull outs for so early on in his career.

    I like how people just guess what is causing the injuries despite not having a clue what is going on in his training camps.

    Seems to be a vulnerable guy...... How many times has he been injured already? Yeah, you make a fair point ACS.... Could be cycling, either way does bode well for him.... If he's taking PED's he's a cheat, if he's not well, then he's too vulnerable to go anywhere in the division if these problems continue at this rate. Look at what nagging injuries did to the career of Helenius.
