    The way K2 keep hold of the purse strings he'd probably get paid more to fight Wilder Anyway. If by some miracle Wilder doesn't destroy him he can then go for wlad with the the WBC in hand.

    His carefully pre-rehe****d interviews are cringe worthy. Have you ever heard of a humble drug dealer? :lol:

    This guy should have served time inside for peddling drugs on the street, but got a wavier because he said he turned to boxing.

    Hearns did some good media training with him, but real boxing fans don't want to hear fake personnels they want to hear fighters true thoughts and feelings which isn't something Joshua can do.

    He couldn't even give a straight answer when kevin johnson asked him about why he didn't want to bet on a win if he was so confident of beating him.

    His team has him play the nice boy next door so they can fleece the cash from gullible causals who seem to think he's destined to be the next world champ because he is musclely and bulky.

    Just like that boring tw@t David Price who tried to carefully orchestrate his route to a title shot by exclusively fighting bums until he underestimated the veteran in Tony Thompson.

    Joshua will soon pick the wrong the bum, who he thinks he'll be able to blast out with a couple of punches and then end up gassing

    Joshua's opponent for April 4th is rumoured to be Yaroslav Zavorotnyi, he went 10 rounds with Price, then KJ on April 25th. IMO fighting KJ in your 12th fight aint all that bad, looks like they are picking more durable opponents as he needs rounds. But he will need to take another step up after KJ prefferably a big puncher, iv'e heard they want Price in the summer, so he'd fit the bill.

    Actually, I have. In poorer areas (like where I was from) that's a party of normal life. It doesn't inherently make you a bad person. Not to say it won't transpire that Joshua has a huge ego as well, my point being that you shouldn't judge someone on something like that which is a product of their environment as much as anything else.

    "Poorer areas" Anthony Joshua was brought up in the mean streets of Watford lol and boarding school in Nigeria he has no excuse his conviction happened when he was on a good salary as part of the GB squad in 2011.

    Like the poster above said he lived in watford, hardly the slums.

    I grew up in a poor area, but I never thought that selling drugs or robbing people was the answer.

    I guess that is why I'm now comfortable and not serving time inside like a lot of the people I went to school with. If you are a good intelligent human being no amount of peer pressure or environment is going to make you sell drugs. It's simple right from wrong, with no lines blurred in between only those who make excuses to justify evil actions.

    AJ came from Nigeria and into the uk, only to **** on the country that helped take him in when no doubt he'd have been eating monkeys and bats for breakfast on sticks and leafs.

    And then he pretends he's this mr nice boy where butter wouldnt melt on his mouth.

    Off camera I'd wager he's a completely different person that many have sucked into believing that he is.

    Selling cannabis is hardly ****ting on this country :rofl I'd say your racist comment about Nigerians "eating monkeys for and bats for breakfast on sticks and leaves" is far worse that selling weed. Selling weed is currently illegal and you may think immoral because the law said so, but your comment is far worse, whether you're racist because of your environment or from peer pressure you still should know simple right from wrong, there's no blurred lines between only those who make excuses to justify racist actions.

    i've got nothing against nigerians, but that is what they eat, bushmeat along with fufu and boubou food. It's a fact

    We've rented out flats out to Nigerian tenants before and there were flies coming out of the kitchen , so we had to give them notice.

    Flies don't hang about fine cuisine, they around wild dead animals that have been cooked up.

    That's nothing to do with racism, it's everything to do with what they put down their throats.

    There's nothing morally wrong with selling weed.

    People going to say that's morally worse than punching people's brains in for a living ?

    Nothing wrong with getting peeps hooked on drugs and sending them into psychosis?

    Riiight.

    First of all boxing is a sport, which is legislated while hanging out on street corners selling cannibas and skunk while no doubt threatening people with physical violence if they don't pay up, is not.

    So you'd rather he acted like a complete cu*nt on camera because you SUSPECT he is one away from it ?

    Sounds like you'd rather he conformed to a stereotype completely.
    With that view, sounds like he's in a no-win situation. The more polite and well-behaved he is, the more you're going resent him.

    If you're lucky, Fake Sheikh Mazher Mahmood might go out there and entrap him, and you can read all about it in The Sun. :good
