    Gassiev need to step up in competition at heavyweight first. He needs to be more active.

    Right now, AJ by TKO.

    Anyone who can punch lands on AJ's chin it's over

    Inoue would chin AJ in 1 round

    Right now AJ can't win with his mental problems.


    According to Arreola, Gassiev hits harder than Wilder, he will always have punchers chance against any HW

    Last night Gassiev's win looked suspicious to me. Right before the knock out, Gassiev points Balogun to move to the left, and Balogun does what he's told. Then Gassiev throws a right, Balogun catches it and goes to sleep. Smelled fishy.

    This is bang on :campeon: Joshua with his current seeming lack of confidence and mental fortitude may well be ahead on points against Gassiev but the fight all changes once Gassiev lands something of note .

    Whyte's leg were gone and Wlad had him but failed to finish because he's used to pushing over midgets when they're hurt to win fights couldn't push over AJ and even a bum like AJ could see that telegraphed left hook and easy dodge it whilst out on his feet.

    Yup. Disgusting the ref counted them as knockdowns.

    Wlad again with his telepgraphed garbage left hook that he can't land even on a hurt opponent

    Second he faced two young big men who he couldn't wrestle got sparko'd...he's lucky he fought a slim young Fury who wanted to box his face off not Titan Fury.

    I like AJ, and I think it is a terrible fight for him right now. Joshua needs a series of rebuilders.

    Gassiev has big power in either hand. Terrible fight for AJ at the moment.

    Gassiev is a unproven fighter, but he could threaten Joshua if he were to catch him cleanly...
