    Probably cause he hasn’t had a win in what will be 2 and a half years and lost 3 of last 5? You say currently which is a head scratcher what sport would have a guy in top 5 who hasn’t had a win in 2 and a half years and lost most of his fights going back 4 year? Just food for thought bud

    Fair point mate, but who do you rank above him if he’s ranked 15th. Division is dreadful outside of 5 or 6 fighters

    I’m hearing Joshua has now checked into a hotel room with blackout blinds and NO LIGHTS for four whole days until the Fury fight is over. Any truth in this rumour?

    AJ is still top 5 in the world but I agree that he is mentally shot, I love it too.

    I mean in terms of achievement he’s top 5 but current status if someone attacks him from the first bell he’s likely going to fold.

    Joshua is a proper weirdo. If he wanted to spend time in a small dark room then he should have gone to that show Matchroom did in Florida the other week.

    I have never understood the Matchroom and Sky claims that he had a great personality when it was clear he has next to zero charisma.

    Going out for a pint with him would be like sitting next to a stranger on the bus with earplugs in.

    He'd be giving motivation quotes all night, like when he quoted Ronan Keating after beating Ruiz in the rematch.

    Could do with AJ fighting soon so he could give an inspirational post fight speech and settle the tensions in middle east

    "Look I don't know what's going on with these Israelis and Palestinians but I know it's bad yeah"

    Insightful stuff.
