    Apparently AJ wants to give McCracken a crack'n.

    https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/3386279/anthony-joshua-rob-mccracken-wants-to-hit-training/

    AJ:
    “I get angry quite easy when I am tired from training. I get angry with Rob because he pushes me all the time.

    “When he is telling me I am doing things wrong, I want to give him a left hook to see if it is really that bad.

    “He says it is bad and I am thinking, ‘I want to miss the pad here and crack and see’.

    Lol found it quite funny.. Though it's isn't a laughing matter as he could easily kill him if he did that.

    Let's hope he doesn't lose it and kill his OLD trainer and instead takes this frustration out in the ring on the 29th on another OLD guy.

    That's good, keep the anger flowing, the meaner the better!! Joshua should just invision his trainers face every time he swings at Klitschko!

    I think Wladimir is expecting an aggressive Joshua in 8 days. Joshua will be countered and dropped.

    I remember few years ago they hired Chassie Jordan to work with Kirk Johnson he was giving a fighter hell Chassie said Y ou hate me dontcha ? You wanna kill me dontcha? But wait till the 6th or 7th round of your fight and you look for your second wind & its there you'll love me then" lol
    Kid won his fight & said afterwards Chassie was right lol
    Ghassie was the guy Lee Haney chose to work with Evander Holyfield yp bulk him up

    I can imagine mcracen bring very critical and Joshua's ego taking a bashing quite regularly.

    Shows deep down he's not humble at all.

    Not surprising to hear from this knuckle dragging, glorified thug that he'd love to assault his own trainer.

    He has been hiding his rudeboy ghetto boy tendencies for a while to paint himself as some humble lamb that wouldn't hurt a fly outside of the ring, in order to sell himself to the casuals.

    Saying that, I expected better from Rob.

    I wouldn't be giving any one man credit for bulking up Evan Fields, think the credit should go to a team of chemists and doctors.:coleman:

    C.J.- Why do you respect Evan Fields but absolutely crucify Floyd Mayweather Jr for the same thing when there is better evidence for PED usage in the former case than the latter?

    Lol, Wlad doesn't counter punch at all, never, it's not something he's capable of.

    I think McCracken is good at getting someone fit but not sure he has the technical nous to get an inexperienced fighter past and experienced great.

    I was watching Joshua on the pads with him and McCracken was having to ask Joshua to relax. I see lots of people raving about how fast and powerful he was looking but to me he looked too tense! As the fight draws near and the pressure builds he's going to be more and more tense. The fight he will look like he did in the second round against Whyte.

    Probably more than Joshua.
    Also, in relevance to your question, how many times have he faced an opponent that he needs to counter?
