Latest boxing crack


I really don't get the hate for Joshua, given the hype he has had (which is Hearn's doing) I think he has been a pretty good ambassador for the sport and the UK. He says the odd stupid thing but the blokes a boxer from the streets he's not a wordsmith or academic; if he gets interviewed for hundreds of hours he is going to say the odd stupid thing.

Personally hope he takes the rematch and wins it.

Ben Davison has took a lot of praise and rightfully so but the tactics were all wrong tonight.

The first round decided it.

There's no point in trying to assess Joshua's performance after that because he never recovered and it was very obviously just a matter of time.

I thought he showed incredible heart to survive as long as he did, he was even fighting like crazy to get up from that last knockdown, and incredibly almost got himself in position to win it.
H had the ruiz eyes and legs after 1.
 
Fury schools him. He’s not the same fighter pre Ruiz
Fury has declined as well.
A Fury/AJ fight isn't what it would have been 5 or 10 years ago.
It's not even about who was the best, just about who's got what left.
I don't agree. I think they're both past their peak but the fight would be a big draw still.
Yeah it would be huge still. But not what it would have been

possibly because he is an ex drugs dealer doesnt make him very likeable

I dint like himself because he's sold himself out without actually being a good boxer. His legacy is fir making money, not being a good fighter.
 
Never been a Joshua fan, since he won the Olympic gold, when he turned pro seemed to have a lot of favours done for him, the tape on his gloves versus parker, takem should never have been stopped, it was just getting to the point where he had his best chance of winning and the ref stopped him, and winning a belt for beating charles martin, was all carefully constructed to keep him winning, turned me off him, but fair play, he took his licks tonight, and if hes gracious in defeat i might warm to him again, and i thought dubois was very good tonight aswell, I think the two most dangerous men that no one wants to face right now are zhang and bakole.
 
Came out and landed a big shot in the opening seconds. Felt like a huge statement of intent from Dubois and seemed like a man possessed tonight
Joshua was scared from the first few jabs and punches Dubois landed in the first minute and that was that Simon Jordans gonna be buzzing with his PTSD crack crack because Joshua was stuck, his feet didnt move from then on !

As soon as he felt it he should have gone in Ruiz 2 mode and he wouldnt have had the first knockdown and would have stood a chance
