    Nah, he might knock him out but Aspinall has way better skills, footwork and not only can he crack extremely hard himself he's blessed with great speed and athleticism too.

    But I was referring to Aspinall being a much better boxer than Ngannou and possessing the skills and attributes to do better in boxing than him

    Lol. Was pretty funny how he iced that MMA guy in 2 rounds.

    Another hype train killed off, more casuals whining about it and stating how shocked they are. Great scenes

    Has AJ ever actually apologised for his disgraceful conduct after the second Usyk fight?

    He said that he asked Wladimir Klitschko to pass on his apologies to Usyk.

    That's lame and cowardly, it isn't a personal apology and I certainly don't remember Joshua ever publicly apologising.

    I'd want to bury my head in the sand for the rest of my life if I behaved that way in front of a global audience.

    AJ did land on Usyk. He fought 24 rounds with him.

    Are you a ******?

    I think Usyk will be fighting Belly, the ref and the judges. They desperately want to see Belly vs AJ as opposed to Usyk vs AJ III

    Can’t argue with that at all.

    The true mark of a fighter is showing class and respect in defeat - and I guess AJ has yet to uphold that.

    For mine, among the better examples of displaying said class/respect was when Foreman lost to Briggs - and it was also reasonably arguable that George won that fight (at least, imo, he did).

    Ah yeah I didn’t think of that as the reason makes perfect sense, I think fury could win if he just jabbed all night or he could just hit him on the belt line he doesn’t like that

    You said exactly the same before both of their fights both of which you predicted AJ to win via KO, Brother Olu. Well AJ did land on Usyk and only one of them was hurt and on the verge of getting stopped.

    Why can't you just accept that Usyk is the better man and give him his full credit for whooping your boy's ass twice when he had everything stacked heavily against him instead of making excuses? He had been very inactive going into the first fight and AJ literally had many of Usyk's former opponents feeding him intel to stack the deck even more in his favour.

    Usyk was already past his prime going into their first fight and he will be 38 y/o if they ever fight again which FTR your boy categorically doesn't deserve. We know AJ loves facing old men and that he gets as many rolls of the dice as he wants until they secure the desired result but his beaten opponents only ever get one.

    Dead behind the eyes before the fight tonight, like a shark. Ngannou looked very uncomfortable after they touched gloves, eyes darting around the ring

    gnanou could have had permanent damage tonight. I dont understand how the people sanctioning fights allow that a 0/0/0 guy fights top level oposition.

    Gnannou dies, and now what? who's the culript?

    Idiots.
