Sickly words from pundits at times, but that said, testimonial for fury and AJ at wembley the perfect end for both fighters?
Lennox Lewis is far more humble than fury, AJ and wilder! Maybe wilder can be the referee in that fight? In fact the Turk can make it happen, because boxing for last 100 years wouldn’t have survived without him either!
What is Gareth talking about? It wasn’t one punch that finished the fight between Buster Douglas and Tyson. Buster Douglas was beating him the entire fight. It was Tyson who nearly turned it around with one punch! and Joshua didn’t finish Vlad with the uppercut
AJ talks so much NONSENSE. Stop the fronting infront of cameras and milking the public. Remove that absolute hype around this boxer. He average at best.

AJ was never the same after the Klitschko fight. Before that fight, he was compact, and always willing to let his hands go. He was a brawler, and to be fair, it was very effective and highly entertaining. It worked for him. After that fight, though, he become obsessed with the "sweet science" side of things. I can only guess he wanted to prove to himself that he was more than just a puncher. Whatever the reason, this shift made him less aggressive, and much more awkward looking. It just didn't work for him. He's not a technician, he's a banger. He's never really gone back to being what he did best since he beat Klitschko.
He doesn’t have a legacy. Klitschko defended the belts for 7 years thts a legacy. Usyk became unified champ and cleared out tempo divisions thts a legacy. AJ never beat a top two
Don’t agree with that not a big fan of AJ myself but he can definitely box better than that. One of the worst performances in his career. DD not sure he can box better than what he did we’ve seen before he can be hurt
@@AshleyBlanchard-u6e everyone can be hurt mate it’s heavyweight boxing, Aj just can’t recover once his tagged and now everyone knows that he going to get hurt every time he gets in with the top guys, I think Aj and his team known this for along time if you look at his past fights
Anthony Joshua is an average boxer but he's done brilliant at ducking risky opponents, conning the boxing public with his fake personality and selling tickets
bredda a joke his talking about boxing and winning fights, he talking about commercial contacts and boxing visibility to the UK and his contribution. Pretends his a roadman when trying to bully other fighters but come up short every time when a real fighter challenges him.. Good night....
14:30 NO, stop trying to move past Usyk and continue a narrative around Fury fighting someone else. USYK has already won the generation, you can’t move past him and a third fight, the decider, should Fury win the rematch. I don’t k ow why nobody ever brings this up.
Honestly. AJ has absolutely no idea who he is. hasn’t for years and years. Leave him be. He absolutely needs to retire. If he doesn’t. Dubois will spark AJ out and everyone afterwards will claim AJ should of retired.
I hope he takes the rematch and actually sticks to his fundamentals. He did a complete 360 by abandoning the basics which he worked on for years. The key was to mix the aggression in with good boxing skill, not that “warrior spirit” shite. He’s so much better than the performance he put on
He isn't though. He only looks good against the cannon fodder. He has never been able to handle boxer's that can punch who fight on the inside. There is a reason he has avoided the biggest punchers in the division. He will get sparked out.
Remember when people were saying that eubank jr should retire after he got battered by Liam Smith, he rematches him and does a number on him and it's all forgotten about...same could happen here!! People just live in the here & now
Unfortunately Joshua is very delicate around the whiskers and Dubois has his number. Shouldn’t have left Derrick James who got him boxing clever and going back to basics.
AJ’s biggest problem is he believes he’s a better boxer than he is, his real strength is his size and power and he doesn’t use it enough, if he approaches fights like DDD did to him, he has far more chance of getting the KO, yet also runs the risk of being KO’d but the trying to outbox isn’t working! If he lands the damage early he can beat most opponents!
Boxing experts said that AJ was looking at his best before the fight, after the fight, they say he didn’t do the basics 🤣 AJ hasn't Really thought anyone good other than Klitch…fights elite boxers in usyk and Dubois and he's been beaten
The irony is that AJ actually became his boxing idol (Valdimir Klicko …wrong spelling) being precise with his training, diet and conditioning, but when it is time..
Vlad got chinned a few times but adjusted his style for longevity with the jab and grab. I thought AJ was going down this route with Derrick James but listened to all this “gun shy” bullshit and went with boxercise Ben. Big big mistake
The people calling for AJ to quit are only showing their own inability to overcome adversity. They keep using the fact that he's rich as a reason to quit, despite AJ routinely proving that it isn't about the money. If AJ wants to go back to the well and see if he can find a way back why the hell shouldn't he? Because some muppet with a microphone doesn't have the same conviction? DDD did great, it was a shocking first round and he absolutely caught AJ slipping. But AJ also fought completely out of character. AJ could absolutely come with a better game plan and change the outcome. As for this narrative that DDD now competes with Usyk. Give me a break! Usyk is not there to be hit like AJ was. If DDD comes at him in the same way, he'll be absolutely shattered by the 5th and Usyk will obliterate him down the stretch. Theirs leagues, and Usyk is in his own.
Rematch with Dubois to do what? Run around the ring & maybe win on points? He should take his £cash and bow out gracefully… Maybe concentrate on his various businesses.
I reckon Usyk beats Fury, Dubois beats AJ again in the rematch, Dubois then gets a crack at the undisputed title against Usyk and finally we will get the Fury v AJ fight and whatever the result it will be the last fight for both of them and sends them off into a very wealthy retirement.
The only reason fighters like aj and wilder still fight is for money wilder has been passed it since about 35 and still nearly beat fury so fair play and joshua is passed it now
Thing is AJ has alwayas been vulnerable to an opponent who is both powerful and fast, he has just been lucky that there are not many of those in the heavyweight division. The first time he met one in Ruiz we all know what ensued. Dubois is the second. Usyk met only one of those requirements, he is fast but not powerful, and even that was enough to beat, if not destroy, AJ.
We are talking about giving Deontay wilder another shot after two terrible fights! So I think AJ deserves at least a chance to make his 3 title dream come true surely!?!
I really do hear what you pundits are saying but did Pacquiao have scars when he fought Mayweather after he'd lost 5 times and been brutally KOd by Marquez? Did Lewis have any scars in the McCall or Rahman fights? Did Klitschko have scars when he lost 3 times and then went on to dominate the division. You pundits are quick to write people off like they are shot to pieces. Losing is part of the journey for a majority of the greats. If AJ wants to put the work in and come back of course he can, so can Wilder. Stop projecting your own limitations on to others. If AJ came back beat Dubois, Fury and Usyk would you still stand by he should retire?
3 or 4 rounds away from beating Usky, what fight were you watching mate, he lost both fights 9 rounds to three, stop being bias boys he was never good enough you two seem to know alot after the fight, thats easy for everybody,
He was the best AJ ever before the fight & now he’s done? He just got beat. It happens. Excuses. He’s achieved a lot of money & be extremely lucky to during this time as a fighter because his marketability & talent are not on par. He’s not an an all time great, never has been, never will be.
He's made alot of money and could easily retire. Health is wealth though and more punches to the head is dangerous to where you might not be able to enjoy the fruits of your labor after you finally do retire for good. As a fan of boxing though....i would love to see an AJ vs Dillian White rematch. I'd also would love to see Wilder vs AJ and AJ vs Fury. But for AJ's health he probably should retire. He is a celebrity and probably could continue making millions of dollars without boxing. It is kind of funny to me though that over these last 5 years of AJ's career he's been called a still learning up amd coming boxer even when he held 3 belts and then called a masterclass boxer months later. It was like back and forth depending on the results of his fights. So many times i heard..." why should AJ fight Wilder now he is only this age and so young and look what hes achieved in this short of a time. " I heard that from AJ himself also saying Wilder will not rush his boxing career and that his coaches and team have a plan that he must follow. It's either AJ is still learning and so young or its AJ has got nothing left to prove and we all thought AJ would retire at age 35 in 2025 anyway even if AJ defeated Dubois. I seriously doubt though that had AJ knocked out Dubois in a similar fashion nobody would be saying AJ should retire and that he's 35 and thats ancient for boxing.
Always believed AJ to be very much a hype job, not saying that he isn't a world class boxer, just not the best out there. Having said that, I do believe that he can up his level and take out Dubois. He started fairly flat, as Lennox Lewis did first time round vs Rahman. I believe he grew in confidence during round 4 but the damage was done by then. AJ by early KO if the rematch happens.
Wish we could tell the truth. We'd love a real born bred history white heavyweight. Someone from the real cobbles. Britain needs a real hero. A real " British" commentator, old fashioned brit.
How can you be positive two time former champion and fought like novice wreckless and lost every round. In the ring last 2 yrs aj has everything his way against weak opponents and caught up with him
That was the best Dubois vs the worst AJ the 2nd fight will be different, i wouldnt be so quick to write him off. talking about father time, you are peaking as a HW at 35.
AJ will never tell the truth about why he kept his hands down for four rounds. Thats all we want to know AJ..👂 Can't you follow instructions or adapt in the ring? Were you too cocky like Fury against Usyk and Ngannou? Daniel did the same thing Joshua did to Ngannou. Mind games will beat Joshua he's mentally weak..
In my opinion, DDD is not a different version of self, AJ just had a very bad night and never recover from that first round period. Is not that DDD did anything different. We can debate that round 5 still the same old DDD. But to say he should retire I don't think so. We have all failed many times in our lives but it was not publicised but for person of AJ calibre every eyes will see that and tag it anything they like. Still the right AJ beat DDD easy but when are we going to see the best AJ, we never know.
THAT'S WHAT REAL BOXING FANS TOLD YOU ADE AND GARETH, BUT YOU KEPT TELLING US HE IS BACK AS A SUPERHERO. DO YOU GUYS NOW SEE THAT YOU DON'T HAVE A CLUE ABOUT BOXING?

Auto Pilot speech from AJ.
Everyone talks about how bad AJ was and Dubois hardly gets a mention, right from the first round he imposed himself on AJ and never let up.
I reckon Usyk beats Fury, Dubois beats AJ again in the rematch, Dubois then gets a crack at the undisputed title against Usyk and finally we will get the Fury v AJ fight and whatever the result it will be the last fight for both of them and sends them off into a very wealthy retirement.
Dubois is number 2 in the division, not Fury

You know what the problem is .... Funny word, kind of embedded confession
3 or 4 rounds away from beating Usky, what fight were you watching mate, he lost both fights 9 rounds to three, stop being bias boys he was never good enough you two seem to know alot after the fight, thats easy for everybody,

I seriously doubt though that had AJ knocked out Dubois in a similar fashion nobody would be saying AJ should retire and that he's 35 and thats ancient for boxing.
Always believed AJ to be very much a hype job, not saying that he isn't a world class boxer, just not the best out there.
Having said that, I do believe that he can up his level and take out Dubois. He started fairly flat, as Lennox Lewis did first time round vs Rahman. I believe he grew in confidence during round 4 but the damage was done by then.
AJ by early KO if the rematch happens.
Get this Ade guy off tv. Joshua is not the first guy to be knocked out and he keeps screaming for him to retire.
Wish we could tell the truth. We'd love a real born bred history white heavyweight. Someone from the real cobbles. Britain needs a real hero. A real " British" commentator, old fashioned brit.
How can you be positive two time former champion and fought like novice wreckless and lost every round. In the ring last 2 yrs aj has everything his way against weak opponents and caught up with him
Was AJ actually that good though? What I see is a heavily padded record and a carefully navigated road map and he eventually got exposed by DDD!
That was the best Dubois vs the worst AJ the 2nd fight will be different, i wouldnt be so quick to write him off. talking about father time, you are peaking as a HW at 35.
look at wlad 41 taking on aj n zhang beating joyce n wilder agw 41
Mike Tyson wax never the same when he married that sick lady and being sent to prison
Two AJ fangirls
AJ will never tell the truth about why he kept his hands down for four rounds. Thats all we want to know AJ..👂 Can't you follow instructions or adapt in the ring? Were you too cocky like Fury against Usyk and Ngannou? Daniel did the same thing Joshua did to Ngannou. Mind games will beat Joshua he's mentally weak..
All crap ! If you say youre it then dont get done !
All hype !
AJ to overated fury is no1
This guy is delusional 😂😂😂
Complete cope....maybe he was never that good. 😊
CTE
AJ is washed, sounds punchdrunk
Aj should have learnt from usyk, when he got hit low. take the 5 mins to recover and disheartened DDD again lol.
But AJ has no balls.
In my opinion, DDD is not a different version of self, AJ just had a very bad night and never recover from that first round period. Is not that DDD did anything different. We can debate that round 5 still the same old DDD. But to say he should retire I don't think so. We have all failed many times in our lives but it was not publicised but for person of AJ calibre every eyes will see that and tag it anything they like. Still the right AJ beat DDD easy but when are we going to see the best AJ, we never know.
If Joshua came in lighter he’d still dominate Parker tbh. Parker has actually regressed from when he was a champ he’s way slower now
THAT'S WHAT REAL BOXING FANS TOLD YOU ADE AND GARETH, BUT YOU KEPT TELLING US HE IS BACK AS A SUPERHERO. DO YOU GUYS NOW SEE THAT YOU DON'T HAVE A CLUE ABOUT BOXING?
