Not a good look but understandable. In normal circumstances he would have had his chance at undisputed long before Usyk even arrived on the scene but, thanks to Fury and Wilders cherry picking and ducking,he had to fight his mandatories while Fury sat back and talked. I still remember Fury calling up Joshua from the bar if a pub and Joshua asking him immediately “when they were going to fight…” Fury ducked the question immediately laughing and saying “Behave yourself…I only called you for a chat…!” He ducked Joshua then and he’s still ducking now.

[@wessley4606]

@@jezedwards3858 I actually cheered him on, I was very glad he came back and said what he had to. He's done so much good and literally carried British boxing to the top level, the poster boy. He got clocked by Andy Ruiz and everyone's slated him since. The guy deserved credit and support in defeat as well as victory. And before the Ruiz fight, my money was on AJ to topple fury. It's not Joshua's skill that was lacking, just the pressure to be perfect. I think coming for a 3rd world title fight will make him hungry and aggressive again. And a much stronger stand point.

Love his attitude, know there's no pressure I hope we get the old aj back and start knocking people out again and usyk v aj 3 is more likely gona happen than the greedy queen

[@olliepriddey1161]

There's no point going that route, AJ needs to fight Fury for his belts ideally and then Usyk will give him another chance at getting his belts back.

[@longshanks90]

@@olliepriddey1161 he doesn't seem that interested in it to be honest I think he wants to win again and talk about that later, really what he should go back to Rob and stop getting new trainers and start at the beginning again, he will get paid well in any fight and fury gets payed millions to fight bums so I think he should go down that road for a bit an leave wilder and fury alone till he builds up his confidence

[@KingRay224]

Yeah as you can see…the guy would fight Usyk again

[@davidbent347]

Nevermind pausing, I think AJ needs to rewind back to the physically imposing figure he was when he fought Whyte... Forget trying to box like Sugar Ray Leonard, just go in there & dominate! Of course this is easier said than done but he needs to play to his strengths & his strengths are his physical size & strength... He shouldn't shy away from this as some may want him to do, instead he should embrace & be proud of it! 💪

Aj may have been beat 2x by a highly skilled operator an I bet he wouldn't stall on a 3rd usyk fight unlike the other clown in the hw division who ain't got the balls to fight usyk even once.
