Was AJ rushed too fast in his career?

    He has been paid huge money for stepping up fast.

    poor AJ getting 20mil each fight and more.

    Rushed? He got to 22-0 and was 30 before they decided to lift his opposition.

    I think people often forget Ruiz Jr was a replacement opponent after Jarrell Miller failed a drugs test so Ruiz Jr wasn't even meant to be his opponent.

    With AJ he definitely wasn't rushed but he met his skill cap, he isn't a Top 3 heavyweight, the guys 4-10 he beats but still has the ability to lose to.

    I'd take Joyce, Ruiz and Whyte over him atm and he definitely loses 10/10 times v Fury, Usyk and Wilder.
