    Probably using Davidson to try and mess with Fury.
    Without Fury Davidson would still be running boxercise classes at his local YMCA.

    Imagine Ben Davison spouting off some bull**** and Joshua sitting there saying "yeah, yeah" with this doofus philosopher tone. What a comedy duo. Really, it's two frauds who find comfort in like minds.

    I think there's definitely an element of that, maybe he charges a lot less than other trainers who train world champions, too. Joshua strikes me as a character who is unwilling to learn and face any sort of serious criticism for an extended period of time- maybe as a one-off piece of advice, but if someone is barking at him and telling him he needs to sort it out, then he responds poorly, Boxercise is never going to do that.

    Even if he does, he has no authority to get his fighters to listen to him. Joshua is irrelevant now anyway, outside of anything other than the Fury fight.

    Femi ain't fighting Fury next.

    It will be another "tune up" fight, a nice easy touch. It will be an opponent who is not allowed to punch back as per usual.

    Femi's business model will be to avoid anyone with a live pulse, and milk the casuals dry.

    Who cares about coaching technique and tactics, all that matters to Femi anyway is do my muscles look big in this? Ben Davison is the perfect personal trainer to make sure Femi maintains his nice physique.
