    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.
    cong**** on winning every round, while fighting safety first, against a 6 ft tub of lard with short arms and slow feet...and virtually no athleticism...who said he didnt train hard

    someone should have given AJ FOTY for that comeback story! lol

      AJ is definitely pulling for fury...as is hearn....

      arum might be right...he might not be

      what i do know is that AJ cant hide from the winner of this(whether they rematch or not eventually someone will emerge from wilder/fury)....he will be forced by the media to make the fight...he wont be able to hide

        I know what Arum is saying is political in terms of his boxing business (as he has vested interest), BUT there is a shade of truth to what he's saying.

        Joshua's next couple of fights will show exactly how and which opponents will be selected. It will be done very cautiously and they won't take risks, such as unfamiliar opponents on short notice, so as not to repeat the Ruiz scenario.

        Note: that's not saying AJ's opponents weren't selected carefully prior to his loss. And Ruiz of course had more disadvantages than AJ in their first fight.

Everybody else raises their hands & waits on him to choose who gets blessed next. Wonder who is elite up there if he isn't.
          Post makes zero sense as the top two heavyweights are fighting again come Saturday not waiting on aj as you say to get bless with both making over 20 million for rematch with upside

            For all this talk that Joshua wants Fury to win and Tyson isn't going anywhere near him anytime soon; Win, lose or draw. The jokes are definitely on you Jack. Poor Eddie, he thought AJ was going to face the winner; Especially if it was Tyson Fury. Wrong!

              It was more Marathon Man.

              We watched the fight live and there were women in the room, who don't follow the sport.
              They kept asking, why is the big man running away from the little fat one?

              AJ looked bad to people who follow and understand boxing but also to a casual observer
              that doesn't appreciate "hit and don't get hit" principle.

              I think AJ lost some fans on the night...

                ... of course AJ fought scared against a guy who previously mopped the floor with him four times...

                  It was like watching the Red Viper vs. The mountain but with the red viper being fat and unathletic and the Mountain running for dear life....

                      You are correct he fought a great tactical fight. And I'm glad he did, this was good for the sport. However he was rocked and if Ruiz was prepared it would have been a different story. Joshua had the most devastating loss since Foreman destroyed Frazier. This was George Foreman though, not the Snickers Guy. Joshua was beat up bad from pillar to post. It was hard for me to watch it while it happened.
