More then anyone else at HW ,are you arguing that ? The guy with 100 million Sky sports deals and Dazn contracts ???? Seriously I think you have to leave your own thread and rethink what your defending or trying to discredit, it wont work. Any business savvy person knows AJ purses are no longer under 20 million. its why even the winner gets 50 % if that in some cases ,no one can strong arm AJ with such generated power ,no one can say hes done in another loss….BEYOND ridiculous. ..…….. lol
I know we all have banter about Joshua's glass chin and Wilders wild windmilling but deep down I'd think we'd all agree that it's a fight that needs to happen. I'd much rather see these two fight and for that reason I'm hoping Wilder and Joshua both come out victorious in their two upcoming fights.
Immediate rematch is dangerous for the guy who just got knocked out since if you get knocked out again then your boxing career is in jeopardy.
if he loses again to Ruiz, he will have the same legacy as David Price. everyone will now get a shot at him... Dillian Whyte will KO him, Fury will KO him, Usyk will KO him... and he will keep declining
it's very possible Hearn would line up Bosnian Cable TV Installer's with good part-time Boxing records in their Native Bosnia to pad AJ's record for awhile to packed UK stadiums and re-build AJ's confidence before feeding him to Wilder like a sacrificial lamb! this is all if AJ gets Owned again by the Snickers Bar Super Star!!
What if Ruiz is just his boogey man? What if he goes on to beat Wilder and Fury? The only way I think hes done is if the loss breaks him mentally. Then it's over.
I didn't agree to AJ to take the immediate rematch because it's very risk to get KO'd again. But I still think that AJ and his team has a good game plan to beat Ruiz this time.
Joshua’s worth so much money that he may well walk away from the sport. Let’s be honestly, he earns more in one fight than most HWs earn in their lives. If the motivation is gone, it’s gone. Having said that, he’s banked enough credit with regard to his wins and achievements that this would likely go down as just an opponent that had his number. That’s what I put it down to. I’d back Parker to beat Ruiz again. Povetkin to beat Ruiz, and the Wlad that Joshua fought to beat Ruiz. 1 plus 1 does not equal 2 in boxing.
Yep! It will most probably be over for him. watching the first fight after the 2nd round I said “Joshua don’t wanna know” to my brother and I think we will see that again, he’s probably made enough money and I think he’s done with boxing to be honest. No hunger anymore.
There is a stupid amount of cases that prove you wrong. My boi Cotto lost back to back to Mayweather and Trout. Career over? Nope. Cotto vs Rodriguez was cable boxing’s biggest hit of 2013. Cotto also later on scored a career high guaranteed purse vs Alvarez. De La Hoya kept loosing big fights while smashing the box office. Oscar actually made more money as the losses piled up. Roy Jones Jr. vs Antontio Tarver. The rematch outdid the first fight gate and PPV sales. Which is not surprising, considering the controversy of the first fight. But then Jones got KTFO by Glenn Johnson. Career over? Nope. The trilogy bout with Tarver was Jones´s second biggest fight of his career.
This is a different story. If the hunger is gone, fine. It´s time to hang em up then. But to suggest that his career is over due to the financials is just stupidity.
