    Wonder what has happened ? Kugan used to get 40 minute interviews with him and lots of other good content with AJ and Eddie now he seems to get a compulsory 10 mins

    it is a shame because it’s good when you used to hear him give his opinion on everything to koogs

    Joshua isn't allowed to do off the cuff interviews.

    I think ten minutes of AJ is more than enough unless you want a helping hand in getting a good night's sleep.

    Not seen him do much media recently and I am sure this is to do with image protection. He seems too open for manipulation by interviewers who are after a quick soundbite for a story. AJ has picked up negative momentum in the press recently whereas Tyson Fury can seem to do no wrong. Funny how things change and no doubt there will come a time when they change again.

    Joshua asked for $50 million dollars in an IFL TV interview.

    Ruined his reputation when he bottled the Wolder fight.

    He never seems to have anything interesting or organic or authentic to say. I wouldn't even click. He doesn't kind of have a conversation.

    Correct. Everything fury used to ridicule AJ for he has slowly become himself.

    I was gona say this myself. It’s mad that the Fury fanboys say AJ is fake and this and that when 90% of the shite that comes out of his mouth is a lie and they lap it up.

    He’s a fantastic boxer but he chats some ****.

    Wonder if it stems from when kugan and him had Twitter beef.
    Maybe lost his trust

    He didn’t exactly want to do the interview with sky after the pulev fight. All that less talk more action chat, maybe it’s his own decision not to?

    He said in the post match TV interview he didn't want to do any. Then on Costello and Bunce said they had to wait 2 hours and mentioned Mayweather told people to stop filming etc

    Yes. I see fury constantly pushing his self help books, workout plans and clothing line day in day out.

    He also watches his P's and Q's very carefully and wouldnt dream of saying anything controversial for fear of upsetting his sponsors/paymasters.

    The exact things he has always ridiculed AJ for.

    Him and Kugan don't really get on these days do they? 10 minutes of Joshua is more than enough anyway. I used to watch IFL on a daily basis but not anymore. I only find mysefl watching the Fury interviews.

    Yeah, he's probably been advised not to give many interviews.
