    He took his weaknesses pointed out by Emmanuel Steward after the McCall loss and said ok I want to hire you to train me and fix them. He held no grudge that this was the guy that engineered his loss. He was the most criticised fighter in american boxing press but says he used that to fuel him and to focus on improving and proving them wrong, never lashed out and certainly not at old fighters. Lewis said he didnt want pats on the back in training he wanted to focus on reality. Joshua is surrounded by yes men.

    He worked on his weaknesses to come back and improve, not pretend that he just made a mistake but everything is well and im the greatest like Joshua seems to be thinking after his loss. He doesnt realise he has not progressed and makes the same mistakes in his game over many fights.

    Joshua is showing weakness in feeling threatened by a 53-year-old retired champ. It's revealing where once we heard him talk about Wilder and a FUTURE of being undisputed, he's looking back to the PAST and eras before he fought. That's revealing of his mentality at the moment. Not sure he has the same desire since his '0' was dismembered from his record....

    And this is just one of many reasons why I feel Lennox is H2H one of the top 3 HWs ever. Very cerebral

    Joshua said Lennox is definatley someone I could learn from and try to model himself on with that jab 100% [in 2017]
