It's very unlikely but even if he does become a "three time champion" he will never achieve what Usyk has. AJ should focus on completing a trilogy with Ruiz before he talks about being a champion again. He got absolutely destroyed by Ruiz in the first fight and then outpointed a massively overweight and untrained Ruiz in the second fight. Its extremely unlikely that AJ will defeat an even semi-fit Ruiz in a third fight.

I thought it was brilliant when he started his career, it seemed like a new era in UK boxing, but Hearn always cons fans and fighters, and AJ has just turned into a money-making, business model, and will never be remembered as a real fighter. I will remember Whyte & Chisora when they retire, but AJ will be forgotten.

AJ is a thick twit, and should never have tried to bring politics into sport, especially when it's supporting what intelligent people knew all along, ie that BLM was a criminal organisation, conning thick clowns out of money so the three lesbians could buy themselves lots of massive houses and make personal fortunes. That showed his true intelligence, and that is why people turned against him, because the intelligent people could see he was a thick twit who was brainwashed.

This is the AJ that this man has evolved into and the man he was always going to evolve into with the mixture of grit, hardwork, bravery, hate towards him and lofty expectations from the outside world. He has finally evolved into his final form. This is a man who knows who he is and what he has to do. This is why I liked what the title of his latest doc video on his KZbin channel was called “I know what it takes”. That is very telling of his mindset. He was already a role model but in the beginning he was just doing it to show himself as a positive person facing challenges head on with a smile and conquering his obstacles with strong willpower. Now is the time that he truly becomes a lasting inspirational figure for many generations as he is now showing that the rough edges can be refined with humility, that it is okay to question yourself in order to challenge yourself to be better, that you do not have to pretend to be a beast or warrior all the time to prove you’re tough. That you can actually go from novice to becoming so good at your chosen field by learning from your losses while not letting your victories change the man you are. This man is a true role model in every sense of the saying because as he once said in the ring “he is not perfect but is trying”. In a world where people expect you to be perfect version of what they want you to be, here is a man showing that he has overcome the feeling of wanting to do it for leotard is now very comfortable knowing that doing it for yourself is good enough for you, and that is all that matters in the end.

What??? You sound just like him.

[@cyfar2768]

@@pleasepermitmetospeakohgre1504 exactly my point. Do you know who else sounds just like him? Most successful and well thinking people out there today. Probable your manager at work and the CEO of the company you work for if you work that is. The people you meet at your bank and any customer service assistant. It’s called eloquence, being professional and delivering a lesson behind every message.

Interesting questions

[@AntoineSpeaks]

Thanks

[@MikeyNull]

I don't understand your comments. AJ is brilliant and has done wonders for British boxing. Since he started trying to outbox folk, he barely won a rematch and lost twice to Usyk. You want him to try outbox Fury? Not get hit by Wilder for 12 rounds? Dillian is gonna go at him honestly, old school. This fight will either spark the old AJ by a familiar foe, or..

[@marcus6775]

His aggression what kept him unbeaten and millions in the bank he lost against usyk is he tried to outbox a boxer in that second fight against usyk someone with a top boxing brain should of realised usyk don't like the body shots he or his coaching staff didn't

[@AntoineSpeaks]

Fair comment. He definitely wanted to demonstrate his boxing skills in the first fight. Which weren't terrible but weren't Usyk's level. I definitely wanted aj to use his god given attributes. But at the same point i can understand the desire to prove people wrong. Sometimes outside voice can make us forget we are doing great as we are.

[@marcus6775]

@@UpperWestsideGunn I never said usyk wasn't a great but even the greatest In Ali was beatable you ain't going to beat usyk by trying to outbox him

[@buzzneil]

⁠@@marcus6775he did on one judges scorecard 115-113 to AJ so he was closer to outboxing him than people realise. I had AJ one round up after the ninth and then Usyk took the fight away in the championship rounds so 115-113 to Usyk for me which one judge scored it. If he could have continued the good work he did in the ninth he might just have done it. This is what he tried to explain in this interview about breaking an opponent down. It took him until the ninth round to get there but then just as he thought he was there Usyk’s class and AJ’s lack of stamina told. I think that was what led to the utter despair at the end of the fight.

[@MINDSPARK-u6e]

_Is this interview old? Why is he fighting Dylan white again? Dylan White has lost it completely I would rather see him fight Deontay Wilder, or other major boxers. Dylan, white is washed up_

[@bobbycoolspeaks]

I hear what he's saying but he's wrong, I say different fights for different nights, the aggressive AJ works well for certain opponents and the calculated AJ works well for certain opponents. He should have been aggressive with usyk I saw how he hurt him during the fight at one point, and with dillian Whyte both styles will work. Anthony Joshua is my favourite boxer but I feel he thinks too much and sometimes overthinking makes you make the wrong decisions. You have to be calculated with your METHODS, he wants to appear smart rather than the stereotypical hood black man the media makes us to be which is good but he shouldn't need to prove anything just be himself. Overall good interview the camera should have shown you alot more couldn't see your face clearly at times just ajs good questions asked though.

[@hooligangorilla7429]

Simple! Because he’s frightened of getting knocked out again…

It’s over for AJ

[@richstacks4219]

2:13 he starts sounding like Derrick James. Think about how Errol fight and what AJ is saying. Win or lose their mindset will bring them far

[@simonpayne54]

AJ certainly comes across as more focussed this time around, but I am concerned that he still sees it necessary to go back to basics and learn the fundamentals of boxing again. I personally do not think he needs to go back to basics. He did not mention his stamina once during the interview. He indirectly referenced it by talking about how long he can hit a punch bag for etc, but never directly mentioned his stamina, which imo is his main weakness. I think AJ was a better fighter several years ago and he can learn a lot from his first fight against Whyte and in particular, his fight against Klitschko. He was quite economical in both of those fights and chose his punches and attacks very well. He was a lot calmer and more calculated. The strange thing though in both of those fights, was that he got clipped and his stamina failed him at certain points. I would be getting AJ so fit if I was his coach and getting him to focus on his jab more, move his head from side to side more and not to stoop. He can learn from watching how Fury bounces on his feet and leans back slightly, which makes him less prone to being hit, but more able to retreat when needed - a bit like guerilla warfare, hit and run strategy. AJ is also prone to getting hit on the side of his head and Ruiz and Usyk highlighted this weakness. AJ will need to be aware of that against Whyte as one hard punch to the side of his head will buckle his legs again. Whyte has a decent jab too, but punches from his hips, so AJ just needs to keep his distance, work the jab, conserve his energy and be clinical in his attack phase. I am sure AJ will win the fight, probably with a straight jab and upper cut combo, more than likely in rounds 8 to 10 imo as he will not want to burn up in the earlier rounds. If AJ can improve on his stamina and learn the guerilla warfare style of hit and retreat, then I see nothing stopping him on his way to his 3 time moment. All imo of course.

You've taken an excellent angle on his face to help elucidate his words.

Respect for the guy, but he's still speaking with a sort of passive aggressive attitude.. like he's talking to all his haters, and constantly explaining himself. That's why, he'll never be champ again imo.

Big talk from AJ

[@azh-mf5uc]

To be fair to AJ he has an impressive CV compared with T F however it also reminds me of hearns hypocrisy when he used to compare Amir khan's CV to kell brook. That's real talk.

[@the_alchemy_method]

I agree in one sense with him about how many times you can go to the well… and heavyweights rely on size and power but fury is big and powerful too but he got his fundamentals nailed as a junior. That being said AJ is not that type of fighter so he maybe he shouldn’t try to be something he isnt IMO For example what do you think wouldhave happened if AJ fought his natural style for longer periods vs Usyk?

[@rickard.eriksson]

What style did he switch to? I know he will resort to his old style when the lacticacid hits.

[@craigphillips9383]

All the hate hes had is crazy. He brought boxing to a new place, brought a lot of new eyes to the sport, my son started boxing cause of AJ, he broke so many records, fought the best available, never took a "gimme" or easy fight, tried his best to unify, brought a lot of money into British and world boxing, but gets a lot of unfair stick. Tyson fury hasn't fought a mandatory in over 15 months, never defending his belts after klitschko, fought a load of tomato cans on his return to then get a shot at wilder, don't get me wrong, it was a hell of a story and incredible what he did to wilder, he wouldn't fight AJ cause he didn't want to wait 1 more week got contracts but literally ain't fought and waited a year to fight ngannou? Yet seems to constantly get a pass.

[@BCNLDN]

Unfortunately AJ has started to believe his own waffle regarding defence, footwork, the sweet science, etc. Some fighters (Usyk, Fury, Mayweather, etc.) do have those attributes. But somebody needs to sit AJ down and tell him straight, you are not gifted in any of those aspects, you are a 6ft6 powerhouse with explosive knockout power, now go and use your attributes, take a punch and give a punch back, bully your opponent, break their soul and KO them! Take Wilder for example, he knows he's not the best boxer, so he uses what he does have, that right hand equalizer! With all this defence talk, it could be a Whyte KO on the cards! There is no hate coming from my end, it's more a frustration because we all know he could of KO'd Usyk and pretty much everybody else in the division if he just lets his hands go and be prepared to go to war!
