AJ is back in action on Saturday defending his titles against Oleksandr Usyk
Will this be the last time we wil see Joshua in the ring should he be defeated?
We will find out on Saturday.
thoughts please and vote
I am predicting a split decision win for AJ
WOW
Usyk is the NEW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD by UNANIMOUS DECISION!!!!
THAT WAS JUST SOMETHING ELSE!!
MANY THOUGHT HE WOULDN'T DO IT AND JOSHUA WOULD USE HIS SIZE AND WEIGHT ADVANTAGE TO WEAR USYK DOWN, BUT THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE HAS HAPPENED!!
Joshua hasn't looked right to me since the first Ruiz fight. He looked gunshy and either unwilling or unable to engage in a shoot out.
Well that's 2022 fury vs Joshua double header wrecked unless Joshua grows some balls in a rematch
^You probably could be right TB. Ruiz probably exposed the real chinks in Joshua's armour. And now I wonder if Joshua has lost his Killer Instinct.
I reckon Fury has to be Usyk's next target if he gets past Wilder again. I reckon Usyk will make AJ wait for a rematch.
Already AJ wants the rematch, but I reckon Usyk is way too smart for him. Usyk is only the third Cruiserweight in history to win the World Heavyweight Championship and also the third Ukrainian to win the title.
Bet the bookies cleaned up on thr result
Joe joyce lost to Usyk - but only just, AJ took a beating from Usyk.
Deserved new Champion.
Fury v Usyk would be incredible boring as Fury would not box him or try to knock him out, he will just smother him.
AJ has to accept that his performance wasn't good enough and the best fighter comprehensively won.
Yes AJ's bigger, taller, longer reach etc.. but Usyk proved he's a fighter with better ring craft. I agree that Joshua hasn't looked quite right since the Ruiz pasting in New York.
So where does AJ go now? I would say if he takes the rematch Usyk will smash up AJ a lot quicker probably KO AJ in around 7 rounds.
AJ needs to find a trainer who can get him back that killer instinct which he has been lacking since Ruiz and I would daresay Ben Davidson could be the one to do it.
