    As I mentioned to you before - I never said AJ would win a "gift decision".

    I was completely wrong about how the fight played out. Indeed, I was wrong about how most of them played out. But I've never had a problem admitting I was wrong about making a boxing prediction. It happens all the time, and it will surely happen many more times.

    But I advise you be the one to stop talking nonsense. My exact words are still there on that video. And my conclusion was, "...but I still maintain that AJ is skilled and talented enough that, combined with his heavy hands, he will earn a close but clear decision without any controversy. Although I wouldn’t rule out a late stoppage for AJ, either."

    You mean for Day of Reckoning?

    Hopefully. It's under way. I'm hoping to have it done by Friday or Saturday.

    And then I had a couple of related videos I'm hoping to get out the first two weeks of the year, and then I'll get back to tackling Top 5 Heavyweights of the 2000s, before getting to the 1950s Survey.

    :thumbsup:

    Let's see:

    "Anthony Joshua vs Otto Wallin > I think this one will be close and competitive. Wallin is a talented southpaw, while clearly not as good as Usyk, I think he is skilled enough that he can mimic a poor-man's variety of what worked for Usyk, where Wallin could very well outbox and outhustle AJ. Best case for Wallin he make it close and competitive with a reasonable case as the victor, but even if that does happen, there is a reason to believe that he might not get the nod. "

    And your "official" prediction was AJ by UD.

    And my problem was not so much with you, but with many people on here that were saying the exact same thing and even worst. And when i ask when AJ had a WIN that is even slightly controversy no one could have answer. So can we remove that controversy, until when AJ get a win he didn't deserve to get, which i hope never happen.
