Comments Thread For: Arum: Joshua's Not An Elite Fighter; Will Fight Rest Of His Career Scared

[thack]

I can only agree.The bubble has burst and now Joshua with his safety first style will stink the place out.There's many that Joshua can steam roll as he did coming up but this 'new' style that his ****** promoters likened to Ali will go up in smoke as they won't all come in at 20 odd stone fat and obese and completely out of shape as the little party animal did. The Hearns are not good for boxing almost all promoters are the same but they realise Joshua could get done at any time and now know they have to throw him in there whilst the big monies still there.That wasn't part of Barry Hearns 10 year plan for Joshua and that's fact.And we all know the idiot who had Chris Eubank fighting postmen in the 90's when across the water was Mike McCallum and James Toney would carry on feeding stiffs to Joshua all the way through ..... complete wanker , like father like son!

The Bobfather masterfully trolling boxing’s #1 party clown Eddie Hearn.

come on Joshua has defended in the States and Suadi. Wilder will never defend outside the States because he's a scared little *****.
He ran from the Klitschkos in Germany for that reason when Fury manned up and did his work for him. Why will he only fight with home advantage when every other heavyweight will travel.

Joshua needs to let his sack drop and come back across the pond to fight in America. Lennox Lewis wasnt scared of an American crowd why is he. Over there he may be a champion but in my opinion Joshua and Wilder both need to fight all over the world to be world champions

Scumbag bob is absolutely right the blue print is out on that clown so he’s going to try to hold the belts hostage even more than he’s already have

Not sure if you noticed but I mentioned Wilder in that comment and my thought on Joshua is he should have controlled his own destiny and ran it back with Ruiz on American soil where he could've possibly saved a little face. Instead of letting Hearn talk him out of it and fighting in Saudi for money instead of legacy.

On a side note I'm fairly positive Wilder has fought in the UK but there's alot more places to go than Sheffield and he could travel a little more to prove his worth. That's all I'm saying.

he is a good boxer but very much overhyped and has a lot of flaws. I guess it depends on what you label as elite, he is one of the top 3 in his division so would that make him elite?

Ah yes, theres definitely a blueprint out on a guy who goes from losing a fight to winning almost every round against the same opponent 6 months later. That makes sense.

And imagine seriously thinking AJ is holding belts hostage rather than the guy who has had the WBC belt for half a decade with most of his defences being against opponents outside of the top 10, and who kept his belt in 2018 because a fight he won maybe 3 rounds of was ruled a draw. Again, makes sense.

Arum is lying he said it was ****** to put AJ back in with Ruiz because you get the same result , he said AJ can’t box and that’s what he did like many experts he quickly sang a different tune and went on to discredit Ruiz as damage control .

“I think Andy Ruiz wins again. I think Joshua is overrated and I think that Andy is under appreciated. He fought most of his fights for us and I know how good he is. He has a low center of gravity which is good against a big heavyweight and people don't realize what great hand speed he has," Arum right before that fight .

[Corelone]

The Bob father going a little too far. AJ is elite just not the best, at anything. Fury boxes better, Wilder has more power, but it's that glass jaw and mental weakness that drag AJs status down. When AJ got up, he was lost, looking for help, and quit. When Fury got up, the fight got started and sparks started flying. Elite in numbers, not heart.

...NONE of them are Elite!
