    Crawford was a nobody back then. Stop reaching son, as you wasn't even watching the sport back then. Burns ducked Broner and Marquez who were the best at that time in the division.

    Jurgen, you really have a weird problem with AJ and fat people. You always mention this. So what is the problem? And why do you act like AJ never jabbed his barnet off in the rematch? You always leave this out. Sort your issues out. What a weird lad you are.

    Focus on the here and now.

    Joshua is a very good British Boxer but falls well short of elite level.

    Ruiz was in shocking shape and that visual of the little obese man battering Joshua is his legacy fight that people will always remember.

    Good career, made a fortune by being carefully managed but some seen his limitations way back in 2015, years before he was badly exposed.

    Any fighter that comes with ambition and lets the hands go are going to destroy him.

    As for Fury, I am not convinced yet that he deserves to be considered a great like Lennox Lewis.

    Until he defeats Usyk, then I have him down as a ducker.

    This is correct, however I think even a Froch type boxers mentality would have avoided Broner at 130lbs. He would have destroyed Burns.

    My point proven.

    Burns went life and death with Pac's sparring partner at the time! Broner and JMM would have feasted on him.

    He clearly lost that fight against Beltran too, was never a draw.

    It was. Ricky got such a gift. Beltran was tough!

    Crawford has never been a nobody though

    Check his credentials and that's very clear

    At that exact time he wasn't who you think he is now. Broner and JMM were the top boys. Burns was life and deathing it with the B-class of the division.

    Don't be daft

    AJ is world level all day but just got found out by a better boxer and beaten by a guy who on the surface looks like crap but truth be told is a good boxer

    It was a terrible look though for his US debut, that there is no denying

    Look again at the Ruiz 1 fight and let me know where these elite and/or warrior qualities are.

    Any fighter that comes to win throwing leather will take him out.

    Joshua's power has been grossly overrated as well failing to put a dent into a number of fighters who have went on to be obliterated such as Takam and Parker.

    Proved himself an absolute warrior that night to last the 12 rounds.
