    I don't know AJ personally so I haven't commented on his personality.

    All I said was I apparently dealt a few drugs in his younger days that s lot of people do but he's crawl out of that life and become so far a success.

    Unless you know him personally you can't comment on him being a 'thug'

    That's what I was thinking.

    I made s thread to try and show AJ is doing pretty well compared to pretty much every other fighter in the world on 11 fights and he comes back saying he's been watching the sport longer than me and basically trying to say he knows more than me and then going totally off topic about matter which I'm guessing he knows nothing about unless he actually knows AJ himself.

    All I wanted was s decent discussion which this forum Is supposed to be about. Not a place to preach right and wrong or modern day crime politics.

    Anthony Joshua always says when he took up boxing 2008 it saved him etc

    The reality is that his dealing conviction was in 2011 when he was a paid member of the GB squad just before the Olympics.

    I don't trust him or believe he's anything special and really believe he's going to be exposed and brutally stopped within the next 5 fights.

    Boy, please stop calling me mate, I'm not your fcking friend

    You need to apologise for calling me a liar because now you know that even his coaches had a problem with this thug. And you will apologise again when AJ eventually gets exposed just like I predicted. He's more of a brand to sell to dumb ducks like you and the op than a genuine world class fighter

    He couldn't have matured that we'll, if he is threatening people for asking him about a loss in the amateurs.

    As for Kugan, you don't need to have seen him to know he was shook up, you could hear him completely lose his voice and composure during the interview.

    I don't hate successful people and don't have any hate for pple who get hit the head for a living. Most of them will be punch drunk or have Parkinson's by the time they're middle aged. Sad but true

    What I do hate are lowlife thugs, terrorists and starry eyed biased nut hugging fanboys who can't see the forest for the trees and give credit to fighters who don't desere credit

    I hope he unifies the entire heavyweight division one day just to make a lot of people fume...

    He totally hasn't done badly for his first 11 fights but be real here, these comparisons are often apples and oranges.
    Just take Tyson's 47% and Wlad's 46% for a spin for example.
    In the exact same timeframe (1½ years) Wlad had fought 18 times, and Tyson had fought a wooping 27(!!!) times, and having his very next fight for the frickin' WBC HW title only 2 months later.
    So, they just were more active and their first 11 came in a much smaller timeframe (8 and 9 months).

    Like said, some people are coming on too harsh on Joshua because he's doing very well for his lack of experience. But the comparison method is flawed.

    That is a good point. I actually agree with you and thinking now I should have put the time frame in there.

    Being active is huge for a young fighter that's one of the reasons I liked hughie fury when he turned pro. Fighting so often its a shame he became I'll. He could have been 25 in by now. Regardless of opposition the momentum does help a lot as long as you are moving forward and making little steps up.

    Okay MATE, I wont apologise for anything I have said to you, you don't know what he is like, neither do I. I will never have to apologise if he is a fraud, because I have never said he is the next great heavyweight. I have merely said I believe he could be, not that he will be. How can you call him a thug? He has shown nothing to suggest he is a thug, just because he dealt drugs once doesn't make him a thug. Kugan wasn't shook up, everyone who watches that interview can see he is not directing that at Kugan
