I don't think AJ will ever agree to fight Wilder... And frankly I can't say I blame him.

Wilder could kill him in the ring


If he adopted the same style he used in defeating Andy Ruiz,he would also defeat Wilder with points but Wilder has that thing I personally call "The Lucky Shot".You get it once and you are gone,if AJ can protect himself against it,he would win on points

Just one right hand will do the trick. I feel AJ career may be short lived. There is ntin really special about him as a boxer or champion

That is the truth..
Anybody that can beat Klitschko's should be able to destroy fatty in 2nd round.

At what Age was Klitschko when AJ beat him? An was in his prime and kitschko have seen his better days. It was like Muhammed Ali vs Larry Holmes

Wilder has a single belt yet want to dictate the term of the fight. What that means is that he does not want the fight because it is 50:50

Fury is the only person for now I think could defeat Joshua.


They are both champions and challengers. Their camp are at liberty of stating the terms. Fury will jump at any terms since his the challenger and wants the belt while wilder won't take a challenge what won't benefit him well.

Who told you boxers don't HV long career span. How old was may weather when he fought Mc Gregor to when he fought Zab Judah. At what age did Sugar ray retire? At what age was Alis last fight. What of Larry Holmes disgrace fight against Tyson. How old was he. Baba stick with football if you don't HV points. A boxer can fight for 20 years if he has the gas. Even Earnie shvers who started boxing at mid 20s still made an impression on Holmes


Even zab Judah z close to 50 and his still boxing.

All sporting careers are short-lived. you can't cheat aging. Tyson got tired as he got holder, same as Ali, Forman and other legends. The aim is to make lots of money and retire quick or vacate like Lewis.

Short lived.... By the way whatz your definition of short lived? Coz even in the normal world once u turn 55 u start planning retirement. And Bernard hopskins self became a boxing champion at 46. And had his last fight in his 50s

Short lived meaning your age eventually catch up with you especially in the Heavy weight division. You can't b a champion forever. Well you and I Know that average retirement age is around 65 and above. If I win a lottery by 40 or earn lots of money before 45. I am retiring. The time you start planning for retirement doesn't really matter.

if I am not making enough money, I might consider fighting till 60 if I am a boxer grin

In 24 pro fight, AJ has fought:

Klitschko
Whyte
Povetkin
Parker
Ruiz (*2)
Breazeale
Molina
Takam
Martin

Klit, Parker and Povetkin all even have a better record than Whyte.

and the lucky shot did not take out Fury as he expected. Fury dragged the fight on. if only fury was an heavy hitter.

Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury are both skilled KO specilise, Joshua should enjoy his reign while it lasts cause after now it's time to face the division elites

Joshua Inclusive. And this is exactly why you make it quick, hence, the dude is now worth $100m and counting. An amount several heavyweight boxers (both active and retired) can only dream of.

Was McCrory a world champion? If not then he should take a seat.

Someone’s entire career was at stake and you expected him to take unnecessary risks.

IMO Joshua did the most reasonable thing- win, regardless of the margin. Just win!

Later he can resume his knock out and other entertainment pursuits in the ring if he chooses.

Boxers don’t stay on top for long if they pander to crowd entertainment that usually makes the fight almost a 50-50 brawl.

Well done AJ! Don’t stop winning even if by 2 points.

Furu is also very strong but AJ can't take heavy shots like that,even the King Kong couldn't survive it.

Then put Ruiz in with Wilder or Fury for a truer perspective of Joshua
George Foreman on AJ
in summary,
Fury: Boxer
Wilder: knockout Power
AJ: Boxer + Knockout Power

our Nairaland armchair analysts think otherwise grin

Now that Wilder is aware of the damage that Ruiz can cause, he is going to run from the Mexican..I don't blame him, the Mexican brawls and fights from the inside.
Fury is more of a risk taker and will be up to the challenge. He is a boxer and has nothing to fear.

AJ couldn't knock out Mr Ibu, a guy who spent his time drinking plenty beer, partying, buying cars and cruising around town instead of training in the gym.
I know that what matters is winning but how you win also counts sometimes.
This is why it seemed he has been dodging Fury and Wilder cool

Meanwhile the guy advertising website design, I wonder if he has time to attend to customers as he posts in virtually all FP topics 247

Please was that really a knock out , the point difference was not much even, me think he was extremely very lucky

So dangerous that his so called knock out blows couldn't knock out furry twice but I also have my doubts if Joshua would have survived those two blows that felled Furry considering the noticeable and obvious fact that my man Joshua has a wobbly feet

Not wobbly feet but glass jaw!

Even though I'm a proud team AJ but he has a wobbly feet and a glass jaw as well but he uses his techniques to make up for those lapses.

Seriously seems like Lenox was just being nice. After being beaten in the first fight, AJ still dignified his beater by not having a convincing KO as if Ruiz is really good
