    Yup, saw the same thing.

    Classic case of an old atg feeling threatened and not wanting the new guys to take his spot as England's best HW

    Yep, saw the same. You got to remember how Lennox was jealous of Bruno because of his popularity, and got nasty to Bruno. Lennox sees another british heavyweight getting love and I think it annoys Lennox that the British fans never really took to him as well as they should of done. Lennox is an all time great, maybe Joshua might follow. Personally I don't think Joshua would ever be as good as Lennox.

    He commended Klitschko more than Joshua that's for sure. I don't think he was expecting it to take 11 rounds for Joshua to get the job done so applauded Vlad for it lol.

    Pretty sure he tipped Joshua to win, wouldn't read too much into it. He'll be pleased for Joshua - Lennox had his day and was one of the very best in the division.

    I was watching the Swedish broadcast and they tried to push the narrative that Wladimir didn't have heart. That narrative is so **** it's not even funny...

    Great perforance from joshua and wow what a fight! :D

    Lewis has always seemed petty to me, not surprised if hes not overjoyed for AJs success.

    He's actually big friends with the Klits remember, and he would root for the old guy being one himself.
