Eddie Hearn: ''Joshua Relieved To Lose to Ruiz Jr. Pressure Was Too Much''

Agreed.

 

Sink or swim time, its not like murderers row hes gone through is it really, 40+ Wlad, Pov seen better days etc, if anything hes timing is an advantage, most are finished and hes yet to face the best currently..

 

Poor bodybuilder Joshua. Deontay's generous demands, caused him to mentally breakdown. Now he'll have to grovel to the bomb squad to get that 5 percent split for a opportunity at that prestigious green belt. Lol.

 

I'm pretty sure eddie has an account on here or lurks here everyday.

he ripped off my angle to push Marvellous Gash Ali after his fight with Price as well.

 

No he delegates that kind of work for hired goons on here who report back to him in haste, the general mood amongst fans in regards to his fighters and their rivals.

 

He’s not that young anymore. Be 30 in a few months and if you are judging him from his last fight, could be that we’ve already seen the best of him.

 

It is well known that Eddie Hearn hired some football hooligans to support matchroom on internet boxing forums, that‘s how Galvatron came to be for example.

 

A load of B's. No one likes to lose

 

I believe this is the truth, he was feeling the pressure and couldn't cope. He did look relieved to lose...so would I...then again I'm not claiming to be an elite heavyweight, so it's not looking good for AJ's future. He has been up against it a few times previous to Ruiz but was still in control due to the opponent being limited or old etc but this was the first time he faced a fresh hungry warrior with a decent game plan who wasn't overawed and now the blueprint has been laid it's probably only downhill from here.

 

I doubt he wanted to lose. If he wanted to lose there wouldn’t be pressure. The feeling of pressure just happened to be relieved when he lost. Probably came as a surprise to him. The relief I mean.

 

Completely different, PAC has seen it all, the ups and downs he's 40yo. Josh has never tasted anything but success, he's young and has a lot to learn about the fight game and super stardom.

 

AJ Is a golden boy who got exposed and beating up badly by the better fighter. Im sure It will happen again in the rematch. If not Ruiz Jr, Fury, Usyk, Whyte and Wilder would beat him up badly.

Its only because he has a gold medal, tons of sponsors, a chiseled body that he is in the spotlight. If he looked like Ruiz Jr he wouldn't be viewed the same as casual fans view him today.

They should have started off AJ slow and not pushed him through the ranks so quickly. Its clearly ruined him mentally.

 

Hearn has made AJ multi millionaire who does not need to work another day in his life.

He has done fantastic job with him and got him to world champion against Charles Martin and selling out numerous football stadiums.

 

Too generous. I say flat fee is order for Joshua. Rofl

 

the english nation (i am english) have once again destroyed another sportsman.

the english football team, the nation put so much pressure on their shoulders going into tournaments and they under perform, they dont care, they get paid millions.
Its the same scenario with Joshua.

Wilder and fury dont get that type of pressure from fans or an entrie country.

So yes the pressure of being champion from/in the UK is a massive deal.

but i do think its a bit of a werid thing for hearn to come out and say. a bit Weak as a promoter, depedns what angle he is going for.
it pretty much makes sense.
