    Jesus Christ, someone please KO Hearn the twat.
    You do realise your man had 2 chances with Usyk and was well beaten twice.

    The commentary was so patronising. “He started so well”. Ffs after like 30 seconds into the fight with not a meaningful punch landed. Barker is one of the worst commentators in sports.

    Last two fights the best i,ve ever seen joshua. In fairness we,re talking wallin and ngannou.

    Going out on a limb...joshua will beat them all by the time he gets round to them now.

    Fury and usyk ageing just when Joshuas suddenly found genuine one punch knockout power.

    Although I m questioning why davidson can suddenly get him one punch knocking people out after 2 fights...after numerous trainers failed to do it.

    Hes always had good power. But he used to labour with it a lot of the time. Almost had to push takam over to win. He,d have popped the same takam over in two rounds if tonights joshua turned up.

    Davidson with very limited experience in the grand scheme of things is either much better than we all thought cause hes getting much more out of joshua that a lot more experienced and esteemed trainers did or somethings afoot.

    3 fights ago he absolutely laboured against franklin. 2 training camps later hes now hitting like an absolute mule.

    Disappointed in Zhang tonight, I thought he looked like a beast against Joyce, I guess styles make fights, and fair play to Parker for taking the fights no one else wanted.

    Hearn embarrassing himself worse than AJ after the second Usyk fight with his post fight comments, as others have said AJ has already been exposed THREE times. He just knocked out a 0-1 novice whom was a sitting duck and over-confident from his performance against a lacklustre, out of shape and non-punching Fury.

    He's just evolved into a complete con-man over the years whom sold his soul first to Sky then DAZN and now the Saudi's.

    Hearn, Joshua and Benn, the three ****ing amigo's.

    I always stuck up for Joshua, even when I picked Usyk against him, and I am proud of the man for redeeming boxing after the Fury disgrace.

    As for Parker...what a ride he is on!

    Him and Joshua for the title once Uysk and Fury retire.

    Joshua has always looked dangerous vs 2nd rate heavys & old coffin dodgers. Hearn has played an absolute blinder with these wallin & ngannou fights with the cv merchants well out in full force again, even after the zhang-joyce-parker infinite loop started tonight

    Steady on mate nothing's more embarrassing than the break down after usyk.

    Which is never ever ever mentioned funny that.

    In fairness Jake Paul has a better cv than the majoirty of Wilder's first 20 pro fights.

    I think people are sleeping on joshua now.

    Apart from the part time fighters he was putting away in the early part of his career.....hes always laboured with his power. Franklin. Takam. Breazeale. Pulev etc. 2nd rate heavys at the stage he fought them at anyway. Dont get me wrong his powers always been decent. Hes hitting differently these last two fights and the knockout against helenius tho.

    That alone changes a lot going forward imo.

    Usyk is the best heavyweight on the planet.

    The current Fury gets flattened by AJ. He barely moves now, no head movement or anything. He tries to walk down AJ he’s getting his lights turned out.
    The Fury that fought Klitschko however would have danced rings round him but he’s long gone.

    Joshua is also the biggest puncher in the division not Wilder. If AJ had fought everyone on Wilders record he would have knocked them all out too. Same with the likes of Dubois. Wilder is/was a bit of a myth.

    No one is sleeping on joshua. The general feel on the shite tip platform of X is that he is well and truly back in tyson esque fashion, ready to smash both fury and usyk to pieces if given a third chance

    Pretty much always been the view of a general casual type boxing fan regarding joshua. Most of us who like to think we know a bit more than that tho....have mostly disagreed with that.

    I,ll be honest i m heading more towards the casual viewpoint atm tho. By the time he gets either of them in the ring....its starting to look favourable for joshua atm.

    Wilder been knocked out the picture. Fury/usyk will take it out themselves and ageing will slow them down. Zhang knocked out the picture. Joshua looking in the best position of all of them going forward.

    Brutal KO from AJ.

    Tyson went 12R (36m) with Wallin and 10R (30m) with Ngannou. Lucky not to lose both via a Cut (Wallin) and Points (Ngannou).

    AJ took 5R (15m) with Wallin and 2R (5m 38s) with Ngannou to get rid of both.

    Just saying...

    Big BIG Shout Out to Ben Davison.

    AJ does Fury, thought it before, it's even clearer and cleaner now (imo).

    Lastly, kudos to Parker, what a fantastic ballsy 2 fight run v Wilder and Zhang. I can see AJ v Parker down the line late 2025.
