    Over the moon he got spanked after his comments last year. Only downside is I would have loved to have seen Fury punch his lips off. Storming off and not giving the new champion the respect he deserves typifies the man. No interview, nowt. He’s finished.

    Not even sure it’s corruption. It’s just everyone acting like children. “I want it on my channel”… “no it’s on my channel”… “I want more money”… etc etc etc continue forever.

    Joshua has said he wants Fury, Fury has said he wants Joshua… both have said this multiple times on various press outlets.

    the only reason it hasn’t happened is the idiots holding the purse strings.

    That Joshua reminded me of the Joshua in the first fight against Ruiz. Didn’t look in any sort of mindset. Never looked settled in the ring or comfortable. Think that’s what’s gone on after the end too. He’s doing no interviews as he’s not in the right place. Not sure mind and it’s just an opinion

    Wrong mate, he’s simply not good enough, he was out fought, out thought, out classed, he’s slow, ponderous and easy to pick off. If he doesn’t get a power punch in early doors he’s struggling, his conditioning was apparently top notch, he was never in the fight.

    Can’t be wrong mate. It’s an opinion. Same as yours is. I don’t say you’re wrong as I don’t know.

    I put it wrong, apologies. What I should have said was I didn’t agree with any of your assessment of the fight.

    I didn’t give an assessment of the fight. Just if what I thought of AJ from his body language. Much like the Ruiz fight.

    He was outclassed completely today. Absolutely no doubt. I can’t work out how one judge had him only 2 rounds behind. But his head was never in it for me

    I bloody knew it.

    Stuck my boxing capital on Usyk. Did a podcast. Told my friends at the match today it would happen. Put Usyk on points.

    Knew it. Outboxed. I don't bed anymore but my friends made a fortune.

    I’ve never rated him, he can punch mind but he was totally out classed tonight, Usyk is a classy technically brilliant boxer, AJ just never had any answers. Beginning of the end for him tonight.
    Fury has it all, he’s by far the best heavy weight in the world, I really hope he gets the chance to smash AJ all over

    I hope they fight. But I think you’d see a different Joshua against fury. I’m pretty certain Fury would beat him (although you never know he might land a lucky one) but I don’t get the hatred for Joshua. One of the most sportsmanlike boxers there’s been in generations and he seems to be hated. I like the bloke.

    That was weird. There was always something about AJ that made you think he was vulnerable. Bit chinny was the obvious question mark, and while I thought Fury would jab his ears off, I didn't think anyone else would outpoint him comprehensively like that...?
