    Lol “AJ showed class!! So gracious in victory!”

    Lol :D Welp… too bad he isn’t the same in defeat! That Usyk rematch post fight was terrible by anthony. What’s he 35 now?? Never too late to ‘mature’ I guess :rolleyes:

    I've always said Joshua would've shattered Wilder's glass jaw. Joshua was fighting better guys in his first 10-15 than Wilder was after 30. There's a reason Wilder fought nothing but stiffs for years - he couldn't take a punch and his handlers knew it.

    AJ poked him with a halfway thrown right hand (that had picked up maybe 20% of full cruising speed) and Ngannou's whole body crumpled like a soda can under a car tire? Looney Tunes.

    He had 72 minutes to do that, Olu.

    Still, if they ever meet again, Usyk will be older and more shopworn, so he still has reason to hope.

    That’s kinda what I noticed. The shots Joshua dropped ngannou with were good hard shots (Mainly the first and third) but they weren’t any harder than that right hand Joshua caught Usyk with in round ten of their rematch. Let’s be honest.

    Ngannou’s chin was blown out of proportion by many. Good chin yes. But not this Tex Cobbesque chin many have said. Stipe stunned him a few times and while I like Stipe… he’s not a huge puncher. Good but not massive.

    I'd go as far as to say if you're hurt by any MMA striker it's a good bet your chin isn't up to boxing world class standards.

    Fury is reaping some serious karma.. Joshua destroyed Wallin & Ngannou & outboxed Wilders daddy Parker.. never thought id turn until an AJ fan but the guy did the business & cleaned up Furys mess.. restored some much needed pride in boxing.. good luck to Francis but he got a humbling was getting too cocky.. & now we get do away with the cringe African sob story every fkin day too .. bonus.. go back to MMA

    He did pull back and put his hand in front to block the KO punch but it did him no good.
    Francis saw it coming and did react but it wasn't enough.

    AJ definitely has his mojo back. He’s making me a fan.

    I'm buzzing for AJ. The guy has taken so much stick whilst fury swans around claiming to be the best whilst in reality he's looked average in most fights since beating klitschko. He made a meal of the useless boxer that is wilder. Fury isn't getting past usyk and I'm glad AJ will get another pop at him.
