    After seeing AJ celebrate for 10 minutes straight im happy he won you saw how much it meant to him he would have been broken if he lost
    Plus you saw the post fight speech first time I have seen AJ show emotion but he held it together well

    After seeing Wach land a right hand on Fury this is about as 50/50 as you can get, I can see AJ vs Fury ending in 6 rounds maximum with knockdowns either way it will not go the distance

    How old are you? Either very young in age or just an old boy. I've said numerous times I ain't an AJ fan. I call it how I see it, as I said to someone else, what adversity have you overcome? None I'm guessing, you're probably overweight with no real accomplishments other than being a grade A hater

    Fair. Too many trainers trying to overcomplicate his style for him. AJ's whole thing is a bit of pressure from centre-ring and using his jab to set up his straight right hand. At his core, he's a 1-2 fighter, and he's always been a bit mechanical and amateurish, but that's what works for him. Trying to get him doing pivots and baiting with pull counters just isn't who he is or what he's comfortable with and it shows.

    Carl Froch could be Heavyweight Champion in this generation.

    Did you ask them why, if it was staged, that Prenga almost put AJ's lights out in the 1st round? Casuals gonna casual. A club level fighter got a dream start, adrenaline dumped himself and stupidly didn't finish his weakened opponent off, and then got nervous and knocked out. Pretty par for the course for a club level fighter.

    Or Pregnant is just a **** operator and AJ was able to ride it out because you know... he used to be an elite world class HW as opposed to Pregnant who probably get smoked by Joka and Milas.

    Honestly, AJ is at his best when he’s aggressive looking for the KO coming forward. We saw that in his earlier career.

    Theres a reason why Dubois and Prenga pushed him early to try and get his respect.

    Joshua's privacy should not be mixed with boxing, even before the accident he was showing signs of stagnation in the ring, he is no longer at his peak...

    I'm a grown ass man in very fine shape thank you very much. And extremely accomplished. I'm kind of a big deal actually. My problem is I don't wear rose colored glasses. It's AJ'S JOB to overcome adversity. His JOB.

    I already said that in my Round 2 rundown. He definitely benefited from being in there with a bum tonight. Makhmudov would've probably killed him.:lol:

    Prenga should really have finished AJ in that round. AJ was done and even though he showed heart I think it was more a case of what Prenga didn't do than what AJ did do. AJ narrowly avoided a career ending embarrassing HL reel early defeat by the skin of his teeth.

    I had a bad feeling as soon as I checked out a bit of footage of Prenga. Did he look like a world beater? No but he looked very competent, huge and powerful and there was the element of the unknown about him and what AJ had left and it just seemed like a needlessly risky fight to take before the biggest fight of AJ's career

    Prenga vs. Makhmudov or Allen would be interesting...
