Just a reminder: Joshua saved us from a moribund heavyweight division and deserves credit

Hell Yeah, Preach Mr S, PREACH.

 

For all those who criticise AJ and give all the plaudits to Fury, i ask this question how was AJ able to win the world title at such a early stage of his career?

Reason being that Fury valued the title so little he gorged, drank and sniffed the titles away, after saying he was depressed while dining on boar, losing the titles outside of the squared circle without a punch being thrown, hardly the actions of a "fighting man".

Fury enabled AJ by this to fight and win the titles and earn a fortune in the process.

Would a fit and focussed Fury beat the up to the present best version of AJ? Yes i think he would. However while Fury was playing the poor me victim card, AJ was actually fighting, Fury the best in the division was watching and ranting from the side lines.

I must admit AJ has never gripped my attention like most previous heavyweight champions have, his flaws are glaring and yes for want of a better word he is a manufactured boxer and a commercial entity, nonetheless the boy has done good for someone with these flaws, you make the best of the hand of cards you are dealt, he has done that and some.
