    I can’t tell if you’re trolling but if you genuinely think Franklin won this fight you might be the worst scorer on this forum… which is some feat

    AJ just lol...

    Poor, has nothing, no pazazz, no killer instinct, nothing about his game whatsoever.
    Wilder destroys him, would be a great highlight reel ko, joyce walks through him and fury just toys with him and does what he wants.

    Reached his ceiling a good few levels below ago! Done!

    And ironically they really shouldn't have, AJ's losses to Usyk were fairly definitive, but AJ fought two very good fights there. No shame whatsoever. AJ showed me his movement and boxing ability, plus gas tank improvement, to be some of the best that I've seen him.

    It's obvious to me, tonight, that AJ really is suffering confidence issues. Deeply so.

    But they shouldn't have spawned from his Usyk losses. Far from it. AJ fought very well in those 24 rounds. He should have watched those fight back and thought to himself " you know what, I did lose, but I did well"

    After tonight, I think there's top ten fighters who would really fancy the job re AJ.

    We'll see, mate.

    Of course Hearn is trying to slide Whyte in there. Why do you even mention Wilder, that fight negotiations never got anywhere and at this point AJ's shaky nerves don't want it, I'm sure.

    Fury is going to want a 85-15 split so Whyte it is.

    Let's how Joyce does next but looking at his punch output against a super cautious AJ looks like a no contest. I don't see AJ hurting him either even though he gets him. It would take AJ 6 rounds to set up 2 right hands for ****s sake.

    Eddie is so desperate he let Whyte have a microphone in the postfight lol.

    The DAZN deal is for three fights isn't it? Makes sense the next fight is a mid tier fight vs Whyte, which in all honesty is a much better chance for AJ to look good. That sets up the third fight to be the Fury or Wilder cash in. If AJ fought one of them next and lost then that third fight becomes a massive liability for DAZN.

    At this moment in time, Joyce is a nightmare fight for AJ.

    AJ, unless cashing out needs to give a Joyce fight a very wide birth.

    I'm honestly not sure where AJ goes from here.

    AJ v Wilder would be a good fight.

    Wilder by KO would be the favourite.

    Would you rather see Usyk vs Dubois? Or Usyk vs Wilder?

    I'm thinking a very short fight, mate

    In Wilders favour 'if' Wilder's not as declined as AJ apears to be.

    One big one from Wilder would have the current AJ in ultra panic mode, whether it dropped him or not.


    I'm not even sure AJ, on the night, makes the ring walk.....;)

    He didn't do a lot but in almost every round it was still more than what Franklin did.
