Anthony joshuas return back to the ring scheduled for december now …. .

Did you really expect him to fight 3 months after his previous fight? When was the last time Wilder, Fury or Usyk did that?

 

That's good. Rules out a Fury Mecca fight.

 

Inactivity has ruined many a career.

 

Spewed my morning coffee out on this one. Well done, sir.

 

But but he's a fighting man

Quack.

 

well he/eddie shouldn't have made such bold claims should they?

Joshua has fought 5 times since 2018 and has looked like **** each time and his bout with Franklin was little more than a glorified spar so no, i see no reason why he couldn't have had a bout a mere 3 months after. Fair enough if the Franklin fight was a Thrilla in Manilla but it was a poor, plodding uninspired showing by a gunshy, nervous boxer who has been exposed for the bully he is.

Franklin was brought in for the sole purpose of making Joshua look devastating and whilst not the pudding i thought he was b4 the Whyte fight AJ had every advantage and still looked ****. I repeat, Joshua is done.

 

Why wait 8 months? Wtf?
This is why Joshua will never be at his best again. He is simply too inactive and now he is getting old.

 

That's why this sport is losing its appeal.
Compared to ten - twenty years, boxing is crap now.

 

Rumours circulating that he pissed hot for the Franklin fight.

All the talk of a quick return, then suddenly out for 8 months - it wouldn't be surprising if another UKAD clown show is in the offing.

 

I reckon AJ just wants to enjoy the summer on his cycle.

Bi-cycle that is....




He'll be on his peds every other month.

Peddles I meant.

 

Will he go the way of Hamed? Last performance an underwhelming wide UD over average opponent, then promising to fight again soon but repeatedly postponing the next fight until... the long overdue retirement announcement.

 

UKAD is a joke.
But it could be that Joshua just isn´t interested in staying active. He has been this way since he fought Povetkin.

 

Back in January people on here were really believing Fury when he said he was fighting four times this year. Theyy should make a rule that beltholders lose their titles if they don't fight three times a year and no one can challenge for a title with less than three fights in the last twelve months. Way too many faked or blown out of proportion injuries.

 

He needs to return to a shrink.

 

The fight in December will be against fury. The only way the belly can get his hands on the Saudi loot that he wants is with a fight against Joshua.
