I was probably getting too familiar with you and getting too comfortable like being with the lads down the pub where we'd be insulting each other up to our ears.
At least it didn't go that far 😂
Not at all..
I sensed jest..hence my point about it..
115 to 113 was some card I think that was Howard Foster’s? Going by that it was all to play for going into the 12th. Nonsense.
I didn’t score rd by rd, but it looked about 9-3 to me for Usyk
Maybe not. Could have been 106-103 after 11
But yes. A big 12th round for a 10-7 could have a draw.
I think I had it 8-4 but not sure which rounds.
Joshua round 2 but could have went either way.
He won 2 rounds together.. were they 9 and 10.
And there was one round I gave him in between, can't remember if it was 5,6 or 7.
I'll need to watch it again.
It did enter my head at the end that a robbery might take place so glad justice prevailed.
If fury had same the same ****, the media and public would have got him cancelled, since it was aj, was swept under the carpet. Plays the nice guy, pretty clear from his words and past, hes not.
Now you’d need your head examined to not be giving Usyk the 12th so it must have been 105-104
Yea round 6 I think he won clearly. I think 8-4 as well and as Eddie himself said 7-5 being very generous.
Am I missing something or what?
A bit of shîte talk with some other guy.
Is that it?
Has fury not said worse things and is still here.
Like I said I might be missing something.
Read it, he says superior black race, if fury had said superior white race, what do you reckon the media would do? Same **** when wilder was fighting fury, race brought into and fury quickly shut commentators down. That type of talk has no place anywhere not to mind sports.
Fury’s antics on another level to AJ..
What do you think of Joshua's superior black race comment? Fury has said alot of ****, nothing as fucked up as that though.
A 4 year old Twitter rant? I don't see it as anything to get offended by. The Maud Flanders cancel culture crowd might be up in arms though.
You dont think anything to be offended by a a guy, a supposed role model talking about a superior race?
Hey no need for that!
Leave him alone!
I won't stand for a bad word said about the man! 🤭🤭
If I started getting offended by what boxers say I'd never watch it.
Love watching the sport but the majority of them talk absolute garbage.
Also, role model? I'd hope most kids have better role models than celebrity sports people..
Thats more then garbage, its a messed up mindset, and like it or no, joshua is a huge role model especially to young kids, so his words have more meaning than the ordinary street joe so he should keep divisive crap like that out of his mouth.
Correct. Rd 12 was Usyk’s…
I miscalculated my point…the point I was trying to make..
Foster surely had it a 10-9 Usyk rd 12, which meant a 105-104 after 11
He tries to come off smart in interviews and how he studies boxing, last night proved his boxing iq.
I think last night’s showing from AJ was as much about a lack of effort and desire and commitment as it was about ring IQ. After 4 rds he looked like he wanted to go home. There was just no urgency or fire..he was poking and swiping and pushing shots all night..seemed terrified to give it a proper go..
The Ruiz loss has seemed to pretty much change AJ for the worse!
Dont buy any of that, he looked like he lacked effort as he was a rabbit in headlights and didn't know what to do with a much better boxer, not going to change your opinion so wont argue with over it, i just think you built Joshua up to something he is not and i don't know why as you are one of the most knowledgeable posters on here.
AJ is an athlete first, boxer second.
Fury, Ruiz and Usyk are boxers first.
To be at the very top, you have to be a boxer first.
Hahaha brilliant!!!
You were waiting there in the long grass with that one. I stand by what I said though
I never built him up. I was never sold on him as an historic great. Never. Saying he’s a top HW today is not building him up. It’s stating facts. He is.
I have just as much criticised him as praised him, so this vibe that I have him on some pedestal is completely inaccurate. Taking a few posts here and there out of so many, where I praise him is what some are clinging to.
Watch last night again. I don’t think he once even really stepped up off his left lead and unleashed the most basic combination (and one that he is very good at,) the 1-2 power combination. In 12 rds he did not really try this. It was the whole night spent poking and prodding, and the odd swipe here and there.
Anytime in close, instead of trying to use his size to do damage, he froze and hugged. AJ has an ok inside game. Last night it was nowhere to be seen
His overall effort last night was desperate from what my eyes saw.
Hmm this was 4 years ago and it’s questionable whether or not it was actually Joshua who wrote it. I don’t trust screenshots very much.
Elite boxers are rarely squeaky clean angels anyhow
They said his phone was hacked, if you believe e that, bless your naivety. Nobody expects boxers to be squeaky clean but that type of mindset has no place anywhere. Just pointing out if fury had said it, it would have been front page news and he would have to come out with an apology and statement.
He didnt step in as he was unsure, hes not sure of his chin which if fair enough as its glassy, but to blame the loss on lack of desire, im not having it.
Unsure, cautious, scared…throw whatever word you like..
The desire and fire were sorely lacking…
You’re the HW champion of the world for chrissske…give it a poxy proper go…
I think saying lacking desire is unfair to usyks performance, showed nice chin to be fair to the smaller man. Also to not tire and being on toes for 12 rounds at 34 is v impressive, joshua looked gassed compared to him and wasn't moving nearly as much.
