    Only saw the last 6 rounds but it looked a fair decision, if there had been 30 seconds more he might have been stopped.

    AJ needs to retire. I dont believe there is a top 5 boxer he can beat right now. He doesn't look like a boxer than can command a fight and his best days are clearly behind him. Having said that Hearn will want his new DAZN showcases to be impressive so money talks.

    Just said it on another thread, I don’t know who aj thinks he is. Naive going in thinking he can outbox him. Should’ve used his size and strength. Shithouse

    They don't want to unite the belts.

    thats my point. But cash cow is something in the past. AJ's stock is falling rapidly. my point is where is the next big thing coming from for Hearn? AJ has been a brand and celeb last 3-4 years. Not a world championship boxer.

    Fury will never fight Usyk, 6ft 9 punching down to 6ft 2 would be a nightmare for him

    Cause he's top 5 just got his game plan wrong for me, should have done like chisora did with usyk got inside and put it on him. I know chisora lost on points but he had more success than a.j

    bet Fury is gutted he said he is just a bodybuilder and he would outbox him easy, but Usyk beat him to it

    Fury will want him, he can deliver at speed and his low backhands are a staple of his arsenal. Plus he'll switch hit. Would be a cracking fight, remember Tyson is another fighter with brilliant ring craft.

    if he put the muscle on he would have lost even more, Joshua would be even slower bulked up, he is only really a 16 stone man Joshua un pumped up

    at 31 years old and not fighting regular and legal obligations tying the pathway of fights up he can only really fight someone younger perhaps better. A rematch will take maybe 8-12 months. He is falling down the ratings. More importantly he hasn't looked a good fighter in 2 of last 4 fights.Average in other 2. Bear in mind those 4 fights have taken 3 years. So for me he should get out.

    Casual boxing alert in the comments here. He's just lost to one of the best fighters of our era, and he's been told by the BBS to retire.
