    Joshua didn't seem rattled at all, but you did see his mean streak coming through during the interview. Especially at the end where he said he liked hurting people and knocking people out and how he likes giving the fans the blood they crave.

    Breazeale looked huge, bigger than Joshua but I don't think that will mean a thing come fight time, he's far too raw, I expect another quick KO.

    Agreed - these glove off shows help to generate interest in the fights to come.

    Due to what I've seen I'm going - and Joshua does come across as being agitated, which is a first in my opinion.

    In the age of social media you need to create this sort of interest. The only problem I have with these videos is that they're sometimes too long. For a fight like this a 7-8 minute video would do the trick. Anything that's longer than 10 minutes immediately turns people away as young people have short attention span today. Some of the stuff in this gloves are off video were boring and unnecessary like asking Breazeale about the Joshua Martin fight 3 times as if anyone gives a **** about it anymore.

    I think boxing needs to copy some of the things UFC does like those 8 minute long embedded vlog series before fights. It's better to put out a series of this videos than a single long 30 minute preview video (like they did for Canelo vs Khan) that nobody that's not a hardcore boxing fan is going to watch.

    That's why he ended up with a broken jaw and quit on his stool completely broken and demoralized? Breazeale is a born winner, he always finds the way to get the job done. He's also the best American heavyweight at the moment

    Are you sure he had a broken jaw? That was the original report, so it's out there, but later on that was denied, he got thirteen stitches in his tongue though.

    Certainly, I didn't give Breazeale a round. I thought he lost the completed rounds.

    Watching this video and hearing the delusional comments made from Brazeale literally busted my gut in laughters.

    Throughout the video, Brazeale has various gem quotes like,

    1:00, "prepare for war, You're gonna have nightmares about me, " lol

    1:14, "you're fighting one of the best" lol

    2:00, "I think Anthony Joshua put more of a sweat in the back locker room than in the 4 minutes of fighting with Charles Martin" lol

    2:49, "Charles Martin is not Dominic Brazeale" lol

    2:57, "and I'm damn sure I'm not gonna look up to the ref with a smile on my face" lol

    3:04, "there's a new lion in town"

    9:26, "when I put you down in the canvas, don't do me bad man, get up off from the canvas so I get you down again"

    14:20, "june 25th, you're going to be in the fight of your life"

    15:45, "i beat tyson fury with one hand tied behind my back" lol

    16:49, "you said it right the first time, I'm gonna shock his world, not just his world but the world" lol

    17:15, "second round third round, i plan on beating you up real bad "

    17:40, "6-7th round, that's when I'm knocking you out" lol


    I'd like for Brazeale to watch this video after he gets knocked out.
    Thanks Brazeale for the jokes, i watched this video several times cuz of your hilarious quotes. lmao

    Tell you what was an A grade gloves are off, Groves vs Murray. Some intelligence and fragile egos on show there.
