Calling someone out for ''Name calling'' and then proceeding to call them a D!ckhead is pretty ironic.
On a British ‘fans’ forum, surprising how much pleasure is had from Joshua defeat. I detest PPV, but unfortunately it’s the people - many on this forum I’m sure - who press the button & perpetuate its existence - SHAME ON YOU! ... & if you think Joshua’s loss will somehow stop the flow of Hearns PPV gravy train - he ll now be rubbing his hands at the thought of selling ‘Redemption Night’ at Wembley instead of the likes of Whyte II or Ole Usyk
I’ll be honest, i’ve felt an enormous sense of pleasure from his defeat for several different reasons none of which come from a dislike of Joshua. 1) Fed up of the hype. I can see the flaws in his game. I think he was improving but he was more explosive athleticism than actual boxing skill. Got fed up of casual fans telling me that he’s lights years ahead of Fury, that he’s a better boxer etc. 2) Eddie Hearn can put that in his pipe and smoke it. His ego went huge off the back of AJ’s success. Telling fighters what they’re worth and how they should be grateful of the split offered because it’s bigger than the previous purse but only 30% of the pie. 3) One or two people on here regurgitating the crap Hearn was spouting and reinforcing it on here. 4) The top 3 business where it was looking like AJ wasn’t gonna fight either of them and how there was a presumption (by all 3) that they’d remain unbeaten. It’s shaken up the division. 5) Love the little fat man doing well, story. Telling his mum in his victory speech that they don’t have to struggle no more was just brilliant. As for Joshua himself, I hope he does well and he goes on to achieve great things.
You do realise a lot of this hasn't really changed don't you? Hearn will still seem arrogant. He'll still be talking Joshua up and saying he's the best. He'll remain on PPV. He'll still demand massive percentages for Joshua not because Joshua innately deserves them, but because he just brings more money into the fight. That doesn't change because he lost. Wilder suddenly isn't hugely popular.
You are completely deluded. I always viewed you as a joke, unlike some on here, but you really are in tinfoil land now. The rides over, done dusted finished finito.
The rematch will be at a stadium almost certainly. Million PPV's in the UK. This isn't tin foil hat stuff. You obviously hate the fact Joshua is popular, but hoping a loss sends him to fighting in leisure centres doesn't mean it'll happen.
It was always going to end this way for Joshua, fast tracked and maneuvered to the world title far far too soon, when you hold them belts you are classed as the best or at least one of them, and you have to face better fighters than you would normally face at that stage of your career defending them. No gloater here but for gods sake, people had him down as the second coming of whoever took there fancy. Used car salesman tactics and a complete rush job with him has in all probability ruined him.
The Golden Goose of the man who has almost destroyed British Boxing has been tarnished/damaged/possibly finished. Unless you're a Matchroom shill or you're a mug who enjoys handing over a minmum of £20 to be fleeced then why wouldn't a fan of British Boxing be happy about Saturday's result ?? I'm not naive, I know Eddie isn't finished nor will he be for long time but his empire (fleecing operation) has taken a massive, massive hit. He'll be back as will AJ but it'll never be the same.
Yes. Hearn will still be arrogant but I still enjoyed him getting a kick in the chops. I didn’t make any reference to PPV nor Wilder’s popularity. Boxing won on Saturday in my opinion. I believe athleticism and being ripped with muscle like some Adonis & punching harder than a mule can get you very far in the heavyweight division and gain you many fans but I love that a boxing brain beat brawn. Ruiz’s ring IQ, bobbing and weaving, the combination of closing the range and timing his attacks, the jab to the body, throwing the feints to invite Joshua to open up so he could counter him...it was a beautiful boxing display. That’s what I love about the sport, the subtleties in skill.
Boxing would be the winner if we were getting the big fights everyone wanted to see. That's now further away than ever.
