    Has anyone seen Robert Garcia since the loss last night? Any interviews?

    He wasn't at the top table in the post fight conference either. Neither was Usyk's coach though.

    Something just tells me Garcia's intentions aren't genuine.

    He was obviously there just for the paycheck.

    Well yeah, he's a professional boxing coach. It's his job.

    Indeed but you know what I mean.
    No emotional involvment,no looking into persoective work,no care for the fighter.
    Just like a prostitute.

    Yeah it gets annoying when the same fighters just rematch all the time. They could always do them further down the line, but they're always back to back and they unnecessarily hold up the divisions.

    Hearn was doing just that on the Bunce podcast. It was ridiculous

    If AJ wanted a new trainer and he was spending time at all these different gyms, did none of his team think to suggest Shane McGuigan?

    Anyone calling for a 3rd match shouldn't be involved in boxing. He's been well beaten twice. How the hell does that warrant a 3rd match?

    'Poor AJ' has been served up everything on a silver platter throughout his career. He's been the best paid, best looked after, best promoted British fighter I can recall who was given the easiest world title opponent in Charles Martin, again of any British fighter I can recall. Everything on his terms, immediate rematches etc. Granted he works hard in the gym but guess what, so do the vast majority of fighters, most of whom struggle to make a living. A 3rd fight with Usyk? Just stop, please.

    I usually look forward to Eddie's damage limitation nonsense after fights but I won't be able to listen to the AJ pity party. The chap has been spoiled rotten since day one, hence the way he acted like a child after the fight on Saturday.

    Brilliant scenes when Hearn started reeling off AJ's resume and the first 3 were Martin, Breazeale and Molina.

    “they’ve not seen eye to eye Robert and Joshua. That’s really good.”

    Different sport but after McCracken/Garcia have told AJ how well he’s doing, winning every round etc, this is proper corner work.
