    When will Joshua realize the person training him isnt the problem

    His problem is that he is a flawed design, no chin, no heart, no iq, worst footwork in boxing

    Joshua cant be fixed

    Such a weird guy tbh.

    He goes around asking every boxer, boxing coach, pundit and janitor what he should be doing in the ring and his yes men tell him "wow AJ you're such a sponge, you love to learn, that's great". When they should be telling him "stop being an insecure weirdo".

    He should go back to Rob McCracken but also get the best sport psychologist money can buy because Joshua is more mentally unstable than Mr Bipolar Fury himself.

    I heard Ronnie Coleman lost his temper with him, and kicked him out of the gym. Joshua kept bodybuilding, and disregarded his boxing skills. Also he kept dropping the weights down on the floor. lol.

    You can't train Chin, IQ, or Heart. Once a quitter always a quitter

    Nobody can ever change who Joshua is. Joshua was designed for failure. Not even Emanuel Steward could fix this hunk of trash, but thats okay.

    There should be a bodybuilding competition somewhere in the area, maybe then, aj could be successful at something

    Joshua has brain fog

    Until he can get through that, and find his confidence again he will be stuck in this pattern.

    AJ just like Wilder won't train with someone who is brutally critical

    Even Robert Garcia was a yes man for him.

    AJ knows himself that he is a flawed fighter. He beared his soul post fight and he let little slithers of that insecurity seep out especially in regards to Fury.

    This is a fairly typical path for the declining boxer to follow. Rather than face up to the fact they're not the boxer they were - or thought they were - they look to external factors to explain their decline. And the easiest place to find that explanation is who trains them.

    Hunter would be an awful choice, by the way. If Joshua has any hope of rekindling his career it would be with a trainer who puts a fire in his belly, not someone who delivers between-round pep talks like he's telling a child a bedtime story.

    And he doesn't need a coach who specialises in defence. Ironically, his best option would be Sugar Hill. Knock out or be knocked out is Joshua's only plausible approach now...

    He needs that boxing coach who was bitching out leon edwards between rounds against Usman, instead of the "beautiful AJ" cheerleaders he keeps picking.

    He needs someone who can make him into a twelve round fighter.

    I think Shane McGuigan would be a good fit for him.

    Trainers everywhere now putting on their tightest mini-skirts to win the big date with Big Joshie.

    Robert Garcia loved the money but feeling used now, just another fling like that stripper that Big Joshie knocked up.

    Maybe the English should do a reality dating show called 'Trainer Island' where all these desperate trainers have to compete in a Caribbean gym for the right to be AJ's next coach-fling.

    The surprise new arrival in week 4 will be Peter Fury.
