How much success would other top 15 heavyweights have if they got the opportunities aj has ?

    aj has had multiple opportunities to become unified champion and multiple time champion yet still lost to 3 significant underdogs, with Dubois having already lost to Joyce, Usyk and got a suspect win over Lerena. We all knew aj was overrated but the division could be extremely unpredictable with rankings shifting constantly if everyone fought eachother and got random title shots.


    At this point Dubois or even Fury could lose to Kabayel, Zhang, Bakole, Parker, Anderson, Ajagba, Hunter, etc. Kabayel vs Usyks would be very good.

    I think AJ did very well. He had a few hiccups and every fighter except Usyk has had those.

    My friend, he gotta thank Hearn if he has had all those chances and Ruiz who in the second fight was still digesting all the Big Macs he had eaten 30 minutes before the fight started. Otherwise Bodybuilder would be finished several years ago.

    All sports are rigged to an extent. Boxing and UFC are almost rigged to wrasslin level.

    Nobody in boxing has benefitted more than Joshua with ReMatchroom contracts,as well as the other benefits all in his favour over the years ! Even as challenger to Dubois he had a one way rematch clause in his favour but he has not triggered it,surprised tbh mind . :risas3:

    joshua had it easy his whole career careful matchmaking , Stole olympic gold , bought his first belt of charles martin

    fury had to through several eliminators to get his first title shot .... had to go to hostile territory to fight the super champion and win the belts ....
