2 Shit performances from AJ..... I'd pick Wilder to smoke him

[TitoFan]

AJ is not shit after 2 dull performances he was not pushed in those 2 fights and remember people he won,!!!! Fury did not look great beating Wlad but AJ did
Nobody looks the dogs in every single fight chaps it's boxing end of the day the most important thing is too win Hopkins would win ugly with most of his fights but he was regarded as a master craftsman so just think long and hard.

You get confused with being impressive and being boring. Fury was impressive beating Wlad because he just shut him out easily. Doesn’t matter that it was boring. AJ beating Parker wasn’t impressive. He won the fight but didn’t look great doing it.

I'm going to slightly take issue with this, mainly because I don't cut Fury any slack. I think it was more a case of timid Wlad shutting himself down, than Fury doing any shutting down of his own. If anything, Fury did his work before the fight, when he obviously got into Wlad's head. Had Wlad come out against Fury like he did against AJ, it would've been a whoooooole different story. Think Cunningham knocking down Fury. A non-catatonic Wlad would've KFTO'ed him emphatically.

Fury beat Wlad in his own backyard and that deserves credit. He also deserves abuse for throwing it all away. He is a Prat.

AJ got the win and it's sometimes difficult to take a 0 off of somebody as some fighters are willing to give that 0 away at the drop of a hat and some will fight tooth and nail to keep it. This all will boil down to Wilder and AJ and how they treat their 0's....who is ready to give it up?

You have to start to wonder how much that fight vs Wlad took out of AJ. Deontay Wilder hasn't had a knock down drag out like that one, AJ proved he was the better man that day, but at what cost, it's a question that has to come up now. Also it must be asked can Wilder cope with adversity in a fight? Not many guys have stood in there with him long enough to make him answer those hard questions about himself.


I think more and more it's looking like a 50-50 fight which is good for boxing, it's good for PPV and this should indeed be a PPV fight just based on the status of it...undefeated, undisputed, heavyweight championship of the world, that's PPV regardless of what names are on the card.


I think Anthony Joshua will win, I am not really cheering for either fighter as I'm not really a fan of either guy, I'm just hoping for a good fight and most importantly that the fight happens IMMEDIATELY not in 2 years, not in 5 years, not a decade from now, but right fucking now.

Don’t give me that “not a fan of either...”. You gotta love Joshua, especially compared to Wilder’s “want a body on my record” antics as of late. Get on the AJ train with me! This was a mundane victory, but a victory nonetheless over the #4 or #5 at worst heavyweight in the world. I’d put Ortiz above Parker n maybe Povetkin. That’s a toss up. AJ will be back to knocking guys out next time out.

I think Wilder should be more worried about the preferential treatment AJ will get fighting at home. The judges scored it too wide for AJ, so Wilder will not get a decision over here. Also the ref in the Takam fight was premature in his stoppage so think the ref will be with AJ too.

Do not blame Wilder to make demands now for some equity in the fight.

Fury is a decent boxer but hasn't got the power to trouble AJ. Fury got in against Wlad who for some reason did fuck all..i can appreciate that people might say that fury didnt allow him to, or he made wlad miss but wlad didnt throw..he looked shit against Fury that night...very off.

AJ would close distance and throw a lot more against Fury..and Fury would get stopped..as AJ would not be able to outbox Fury so would just open up, close distance and blit Fury. Wilder too would stop Fury in the same manner

Fury is a fat chinny pikey

See I love all this... it's been a looooong time coming, waiting for the Heavyweight Division to finally go full circle and catch fire again... We got Punchers...we got Characters and we got some cracking matchups to be made along the way and there looks to be a pretty decent second tier of young Heavies coming through as well.
It's all good 😎

Fine. so put in a counter offer. Like Hearn said, they ain't a fucking charity.
So AJ/Matchroom/Sky have to do the promotion , generate all the interest , bring all the fans in order to make it a stadium fight which generates all the money they want, organize the PPV , and all this so that Wilder can take half?? You and anyone else that says "it should be 50/50 , are fucking dreamers that don't live in the real World.
Tell me, if you were working alongside someone, doing all your work AND most of his work, would YOU be happy if he was on the same Dough?
Also , I don't think the scorecards were too wide. Parker just couldn't get past AJ's jab, and consequently couldn't score any points , therefore he couldn't win any rounds. AJ did enough to control and win the rounds. not by a lot, but that's how Boxing scoring is. As for Takam, yes , it was stopped early, but did it affect the result and did the right person win?

According to what I've heard from most AJ fans, Joshua fills any arena in the UK just by showing up. So I doubt there's actually going to be that much tedious work involved. That being said, I don't think 50/50 is reasonable right now, given the wide gap in popularity between the two at the moment. However, they're both HW world champions with legitimate belts. I don't buy into the "I got more trinkets than you" argument Joshua used in the ring while counting off his belts. They're both champs, having won their titles in the ring. So while 50/50 may not be reasonable right now, I would also say it would be ridiculous for Hearn to offer scraps to Wilder. And as well all know, offering ridiculous splits is usually tantamount to ducking. If they really want to fight, they'll get to an agreement that isn't insulting to either of them.

I said some equity, not necessarily 50% but its Wilder's perogative to ask.

Score cards were too wide. AJ hardly landed with the jab for all his "taking control".

Judges had AJ ahead against Wlad when I thought he was losing and although it made no difference the stoppage against Takem shows that protecting the knock out record was important for the organisers of the fight.
