Dude is Eddie Hearns show pony. Nothing more nothing less. Y’all remember when the basketball coaches at school would hallway scout telling every tall nikka he should tryout? I do…That’s what Aj is…he’s not a very good boxer, he just has all the physical tools. He’s robotic and technical just like someone who’s boxed a few years would be. He has no true defining style nor does he have a fighters mentality. He was built in the boardroom and marketed to the British public extremely well. He needs to go fight Deontay and call it a day. That’s the only way he’ll get a 3rd shot at Uysk. If the WBC runs wilder v Joshua as a WBC eliminator and uses that as a precursor to a unification bout. Where Usyk beats him again and becomes unified champ.
What are you babling about he's been convincingly beaten in 24 rounds why would there be another match, use your brain and really try to think of a good reason, goermmm breh's clearly not the only one with mind issues ...

That's what I'm saying. I hope dude is alright and has some good support around him, because that whole sequence with the belts and this speech raises more red flags with me every time I watch it. His public perception has been taking hits ever since he called out Lennox Lewis foe always criticizing him. From the losses to Ruiz/Usyk to his protesting against police brutality, he's been under a lot of scrutiny.

Black fighters don’t do that… Mike Tyson was threatening to fukk white boys in the ass and Money May checked Merchants old ass.

They need to have a 3rd fight.

Honestly, what I think happened: I don't think it has anything to do with C.T.E or none of that.
Dude was pissed that he lost after giving it so much hard work. Stormed off after the decision but didn't want to look like a sore sport so dude went on a whole ass voyage after the fight to cover it up. Dude was trying to be humble after the fight while also being pissed that he lost.
From that video you can tell the guy is just disappointed that he came up short, which at the end of the day you can't really blame him because you're supposed to take your shot.
I said it in the other thread, you can have all the skills and athleticism in the world but what is absolutely necessary for a fighter to take that next step and be special or an all-time great is the ability to take a punch. Having the ability to take a punch makes everything else easier if you're a fighter. In comparison Usyk is much more tankier and can take shots as well as he can evade them. I think dude went very far despite having a glass jaw.

Remember when Dr. Dre surprised Anthony Joshua with a FaceTime call to wish him good luck on his fight and AJ telling Dre he listenes to B.G. Knocc Out?

he was spouting homelander PR babble throughout that press conference when it was clear that he didn't really mean it.
all with that plastic muppet hearn alongside him to cover for him when he got lost.
it was clear that it was all PR and low quality PR at that.
AJ has also tried hard to hide his roadman connects over the years but he failed on that last night.
I am from london too.
