Aj is way too disrespected. Its sad

Wasn’t straight up about the outfit’s weightt and the dodgy gloves fury had on but don’t know if it’s his shirt PR team or just him behind it

 

Someone that doesn’t fold, Joshua looks a great on top fighter but he isn’t hanging around if it’s to heavy as we found out with Ruiz. Under pressure he falls apart. Someone with a joe Frazier style would make Joshua crumble rapid, like humiliate him. Joshua wouldn’t have won the rematch if Ruiz was a true professional.

 

I know you can pick holes in Joshuas record. Old etc but who should he have fought instead. You can’t criticise him for anything except not agreeing a Wilder fight which we all know isn’t easy and will never know why it didn’t as both camps will blame the other. Who has be avoided? Like I said he has a good resume and always have to take into account he has mandatory ones. Who’s he avoided? Ortiz?

 

I’m sure if rather than fight the older established guys with a record he decided to fight younger up and coming guys he’d be accused of bottling the first group and acting like a bully against novices who are still just kids. Fury and Wilder excepted who should be have fought instead or has been ducking

 

Should he fight Joe Frazier? Assume not. Just want to know who he should have been fighting instead of who he has. Not even an AJ fan . Hope Fury smashes him

 

He hasn't been ducking anyone but cleaning up old men of the division never got any fighter much credit.
That's just the way it is.
When Joshua is 40 years old and gets bashed up by some 30 year old, we'll be saying the same about the new guy

 

If AJ wanted more respect he'd have flattened Pulev like the 1000 year old stiff he is. This division is the worst it's been in ages.

 

There isn’t anyone to duck or avoid. I know he’s not liked but unfortunately for those people he Is the best there is alongside Fury. Both might as well retire after they fight each most likely more than once

 

If it wasn’t for a couple of weeks ago some would be saying Daniel Dubois is going to ruin him but can’t anymore and have to come up with something else

 

The only thing I don't like about Joshua is that he seems fake. Like he puts on a personality he's been trained to project. I'd actually like to see the veil slip now and again and him be a bit of an *******.

 

He is a bit nasty I’m sure. Understand the fakeness and manufactured image but seems to have lost his popularity now so might as well stop the charade and keep it real. Would love to see him reveal the real him if that person is a horrible man

 

Parker in New Zealand like Ruiz did it.
Ruiz III.
Wilder in U.S.
Fury.
Usyk.

 

That what all of his critics from the start have said. But the fact is that's who he really is, he isn't ever going to be fully candid in front of the media. If you watch his interviews before the Olympics it's the same AJ, diplomatic well thought out answers, it's not in his nature to be braggadocious and trash talk or diss an opponent, even if he thinks it, he won't ever say it as that isn't who he is.

Much like how many thought Lennox Lewis put on airs and graces when he was active just because he was more carefully spoken and also very private, it rubbed some people up the wrong way. But it doesn't matter what AJ says, he comes out trash talking and he'll get criticised too, look at Fury he's been crucified in the media at times and rightly so some times.

So I don't think he's fake unless he was media trained before the Olympics, he's just a pretty private and cagey. Though it does get annoying at times, I must admit, so I get why he gets criticised for it. Someone will trash him and you just want him to say what he really means but he's always going to be the quiet and serious type who won't ever fully open up.

 

You have to give credit where credit is due. Fury is extremely risk aware. There is a reason why he has a very thin resume besides wlad, wilder and chisora. He waited wlad to get old, there is even an interview about it, where he said every old dog has his day.
Chisora was prime but wilder was always an easy fight for a good Boxer cause he lacks any fundamental boxing skill.
He even once talked about that, he fought nobody (before the klitschko fight) and is ranked as mandatory.

Joshua say what you want beat some good names even if not prime anymore.
Took martins, brezeales, whytes and parkers 0s.
Beat wlad, povetkin, ruiz, pulev and takam.
Imo thats a pretty damn good resume.
There is a reason why fury and wilder never fought them and they are in the business for a long time.
Wilder ran from povetkin and whyte.

So AJ is the man until someone takes his crown

 

Good Lord, half the Hall of Fame did exactly just that, from Dempsey to Duran. Andy's not on their level but fighting is in his DNA. I can't say the same for the tentative Joshua. Andy has forever exposed him. His sheer physical attributes will get him by old men and B-raters. But that's his permanent cieling.
