Joshua says WLAD was his toughest opponent WTF ?? Wlad never beat him ? Ruiz and USKY did, why is Joshua picking Wladimir as his toughest opponent over the guys who actually beat him ?
The bodybuilder being delusional as usual. Joshua simply doesn't like the fact that he was humiliated by a tub of ice cream and he also wont give credit to Usyk is because he's racist
Boxers dont like to give credit to guys that beat them. More to tough fights they won. That said, Wlad took something from AJ when he dropped him hard. He became more cautious ever since. You already saw it in the takam fight leading up untill the meltown when Ruiz dropped him
AJ is living in the past, in his mind beating Wlad wa him climbing the mountain because Wlad was a legend, he still thinks it`s the day after that fight and he was biggest new thing and all his losses are down to him losing his edge, he`s daft.
That embarrassing match will never be erased from Joshua's record. No matter what he does he'll always be remembered as the man that quit against a fat water balloon.
Thats very common for Boxers. Lewis for example always names Mercer as bis toughest fight, you never read Rahman or Mccall
Imagine this: Tyson: "Frazier jr. and McNeeley were my toughest opponents". Lmao Holyfield: "Tokio Douglas was my toughest opponent". Lmao Lewis: "Nutsbreaker Golota was my toughest opponent". Lmao Foreman: "Cooney was my toughest opponent". Lmao Fury: "Schwarz was my toughest opponent". Lmao Now instead (in the reality): Bodybuilder: "Klitschko was my toughest opponent". Lmao This is not serious, this is not serious. Boxers never mention who beat them as their hardest hitters. Someone tell Bodybuilder not to continue to say BS.
Nothing difficult about getting blown out or clinically outboxed. I could see how losing his soul to Old Man Klitschko could be his toughest fight.
He got hit more by Mercer, he simply got caught flush by a shot v McCall and Rahman he didn`t take much punishment.
I don't think AJ, himself, believes this for even a second. This is just a lame attempt to psych out Usyk by slighting him.
This is some poor Jedi mind type trick he is playing on himself, basically what he is saying to himself is.. "I've face tougher tests than Usyk and Ruiz and WON, so therefore I can beat Usyk, Also I went down against the hardest puncher I've ever faced and got up and WON.. nobody can keep me on the canvas.." He is just blowing smoke up his own backside, I think he forgot what he said after Usyk 1, there were no excuses to make, he said the Usyk defeat hurt him more than the Ruiz loss because there were no excuses or reasons, he was just beaten by the better man.
