AJ never lost his ability, he just lost his confidence.
AJ never had any ability, he just got exposed the minute he fought an elite boxer
agree dude
Can't lose what you don't have
@Lee Well, you don't win fights if you're an amateur.
‘You do realise when you let your hands go you put the fear of Christ into your opponent’ 😂😂 so true but it’s crazy people need to remind AJ this after all these fights.
Not usyk but probably true about most the tomato cans he’s fought
@John Gotti Usyk shat himself whenever AJ threw combinations. AJ just doesn’t have the gas tank to sustain it and Usyk had superior footwork to get out of the way.
Yea because he now knows after Ruiz that he has 50% chin. He can’t take a punch anymore. He’s been wabbled in his last 4-5 fights. His chin is only @50%
I thought the o2 capacity was 20,000, not 16,000
He had the meltdown after Usyk 2 because he did it for others. Doing it for himself is right
Absolute genius by Eddie. The baiting of that track star down the road is brilliant.
AJ is still a massive threat he's lost his confidence not his ability. Imo Joshua makes a statement and starts getting that aggression and killer instinct back 💪💪👊👊👊👊
Don't get me wrong I really cannot stand Tyson Fury after everything that's happened over the last two weeks, but let's not get it twisted, there's no way AJ is stepping in with Fury after Jermaine Franklin. AJ will be fighting Dillian Whyte next, cause he's finding his way back to the top of the division. As much as I don't want to see AJ v Whyte again, I feel like Eddie just says this stuff to generate more hype for AJ v Franklin
AJ is the biggest fight money fight for any heavyweight boxer, particularly Fury.
It would be a mega fight in the UK and would probably break all existing records.
@Black Pound when did I say otherwise
@Will Hopley you didn’t, but AJ was willing to fight Fury before this fight. You said he’ll be fighting Whyte next, but totally disagree. As AJ said, he wants Fury, Joyce or Wilder next. That’s what I expect to see if he comes through this fight.
AJ hasn’t got that long left in the game and will want meaningful fights I’d expect.
Why on earth would you not want to see AJ vs Whyte 2 the first one was a banger with great hype and I honestly feel like that is the fight that might bring the anger and the fire out of AJ once again!
@liam wheelerl I don’t think it would though! AJ got his vengeance in the first fight and there’s absolutely no reason to see it again. If it was a close fight I’d get it but it was a clear and easy KO for AJ. Having said that, I don’t think he’s ready for Fury, Wilder or Joyce upon seeing how he dealt with Franklin. Maybe Whyte would be a good option now, but it wouldn’t have the same bad blood it had the first time.
It's hardly startling, Stevie Wonder could see he isn't at his peak
Eddie has already said, up next is dillian Whyte. He's only saying this about Fury to make people interested in Joshua I think
I wouldn’t say that’s startling at all, he has 4 less belts than before and coming off two loses. AJ just needs to focus on fighting and not media deals and he will get back to his best.
Eddie is the Man period
"THEY'LL BELIEVE ANYTHING!"
... eddie Hearns dictionary for trustworthy
AHAHA ...
...but he's right ...simple people do great things because they simply focus themselves in one area instead of allow their energy to dissipate all over the place.
...so nice 1 eddie
Its simple the its the 'opponent' he might aswell shadow box for 12 rounds
That couple walking behind oblivious...hilarious 😅
AJ will destroy franklin. AJ is the king of the heavyweight division. This is the fight i wanna see. AJ never ducked anyone and he bring boxing to where it is today. AJ don't worry what people say about you. A true AJ fan will always support you. Repping AJ for life.💯👑💪🙏
WAKANDA 4EVAAAAA
Kings dont lose three battles
the king?
@kol dimond very debatable
THE king you right
A king might lose 3
@The True Squad Muhammed Ali lost 6? Mike Tyson lost 5 or 6?, Lennox Lewis lost a few, and Wladimir Klitschko lost 5? zzzzz bums in zzzz comments section.. Absolute bums.
Throwing Aj under the bus typical Eddie
So true, don’t know why he does this all the time...
I would rather see Canelo vs Benavidez and Bivol vs Beterbiev next. If Canelo gets past Benavidez, then he can fight the winner.
Canelo will not, Benavidez will KO him IMO.
Go comment on the relevant video then.
Franklyn has shifted some timber....realises he needs to move around the ring better otherwise AJ flattens him
Eddie hearn cancelled the toprank contract and released bob arums grip over sky/uk boxing and made uk boxing the best its ever been - thats over now tho because shalom re-started that toprank contract on his first day at sky - but shalom's not controlled by bob arum, honest
Oh for heaven's sake !!
Lots of champions lost fights and they get up , dust themselves off and train for the next fight ...you don't condemn them.
They'll know when to hang up thier gloves ..AJ is still young ..
Eddie Hearns hairline has made a bigger comeback than AJ.
I agree with Eddie that Benavidez is an easiest fight for Canelo than Bivol.
Hm theres a laid back approach by the AJ team
I am not a massive AJ fan and can't stand Tyson fury, but AJ is massively disrespected for his achievments, while fury won't fight anyone that can move well in the ring and people say he is the best. What a load of rubbish. Usyk is far and away the best heavyweight boxer on the planet.
Yeah he is for sure. Unfortunately probably won't have the chance to prove it. I think Usyk beats anyone.
Fury loses to plenty of fighters. He will avoid them. He already did even though the decision went Tysons way.
In his day Tyson is good.. but he can't ve Conistent. Joshua was consistent and 10x the man classless Fury is
Aj just doing it for the pound note and Eddie Hearn tells the world he’s doing it because of his drive and love for the game 😅😅😅 when these two gonna synchronise stories before they talk to
The press 🤣
😂 I’m sure AJ is doing it for both reasons
Hearn is wrong, people haven’t shot down AJ because he’s a role model etc. Hearn has made him into an attractive commercial cash cow and when he talks people don’t like the change. Some people will like AJ being honest, some will feel a bit lost and this is their fault for marketing him as someone different than the reality
Benn needs to clear his name before even fighting a cab driver, let alone Eubank Jr.
Hearn selling the AJ - Fury fight to get attraction for this fight. After the fight, Fury vs Whyte gets announced 😂🤡
Fury has fucked up 2 potential super fights in a year.
Honestly... I wanna see AJ vs Jarrell Miller... talk about a grudge match.
Rahim🔥🔥💰💰
When Eddie is dressed in his Street- threads, he looks like he can handle himself. I bet he's a tuff Chap!!!! 🤼🇬🇧!!!!!
Congrats on the Fruitiest comment today.
Lmfaoo
All this about Joshua carrying the weight and changing British boxing.
Nah mate, Lennox! I remember his fights were massive and he didn't buckle under pressure neither nor said I'm not a 12 round fighter.
Joshua needs to build again and I wish him well - but don't everyone go saying all of a sudden he's had it harder than anyone else.
Get in there, fight well; earn that cheddar.
Fans will come around if you graft, lay it on the line and don't just try to milk dollars
AJ Vs Fury wont happen
AJ would get 40% against Fury like last time and AJ accepted that last time,, Fury is the A Side there was only 1 final issue to resolve so that should be easy to make,, AJ and Fury have signed the deal before Wilder forced that 3rd fight by arbitration and spoiled it.
At that point it was 50 50 as he was a champion it became 40 60 when he lost the 2nd time to Usyk
@Kayode Adeolu yeah I mean when AJ lost his belts after the second fight with Usyk,, and Fury offered AJ a shot but Fury had to give AJ a deadline,, so Fury could still fight Usyk in April,, but AJ had no trainer he split with Robert Garcia and AJ coming off 2 losses it was the wrong time for AJ,, Frank Smith said they wouldn't of been ready for when Fury needed to be out anyway,, but AJ agreed 90% of the contract and he took the 40% that Fury offered him,, and that was throwing him a bone because he had a meltdown, and everyone was giving AJ stick (bad criticism) because he lost,, but Fury gave him a shot and tried to help him out because everyone was sayin he's done and stuff like where does AJ go from here,, but he's still a bigger name than Usyk without the belts,, so he'll get 40% against Fury based off AJ's worth,, We know AJ and Fury can sellout Wembley there Box Office Superstars,, but Usyk vs Whyte wouldn't sellout Wembley,, that's why AJ would definitely get about 40% against Fury even if AJ has no belts,, and they would get the fight made quickly this time,, it was 90% complete last time.
The issue with Fury is that he messes people around and is unprofessional......Instead of rematching Wilder 3, he tried to avoid him to the point where Arbitration had to order that fight......He messed with AJ by negotiating with him knowing that he he had a legal case with Wilder.....Fury offers AJ a fight in Dec but would not budge on the date by 2 weeks..... Everyone blamed AJ but we all know who the problem was......Usyk has never had any problems with making fights until Fury.....AJ makes fights until ego gets in the way.....Fury is not a star he's fought Klitschko, Wilder 3 times, Whyte and Chisora 3.....Hes not dominated his era......USKY, AJ, Joyce are all outstanding plus Undisputed
Stop talking. Make the fight with Wilder. Even without the belts It would be a bigger fight than Usyk vs Fury for the undisputed
Eddie says after Saturday AJ is free to fight Fury, but is Fury going to wait around until December or next summer for AJ to be ready? Highly unlikely.
Fury will try and get a warm up with some mug that's willing to accept 20% and all of Fury's terms. Then the timing will be off again. And no way is Eddie agreeing terms with Fury, because Fury thinks he's the greatest thing to happen to boxing and Eddie thinks AJ is the greatest boxer that's ever lived.
AJ said he can't throw combinations like Rocky Marciano because he is 18st.
You don't get heavyweights boxing like Lomachenko.
Never bet against Tyson Fury never
Eddie isn’t good for AJ. Fighting fury next is AJs retirement party. AJ needs more time to get his head right
Why people so hang on to the fact that boxers are getting their head punches silly and getting knocked out for money??? What should he do it for ? Love of me the fan he doesn’t know. I probably don’t even care about AJ outside boxing . I got my own life and working for my own money. I just don’t get it .
But ultimately Eddie has promoted him all the years as the “poster boy” , telling everyone under the sun who would listen he’s the best heavyweight around for years, a killer etc ???
He’s can’t be the best around if he can’t beat Usyk and got found out against Ruiz Jr in the first fight - Klitschko used to get criticised for being boring and negative so it’s ironic Joshua resorted to similar tactics in the Ruiz rematch and avoided having another toe to toe he couldn’t win
AJ lost spectacularly against the first non- cherry picked opponent he had, absolute hype job
Switch sports
This is a mismatch for AJ
AJ was always a hype job, multiple losses and counting. Even his staunchest fanboys can`t deny it without looking stupid.
Ok pal.
Olympic gold and 2× unified world champ. Hype job 😂😂😂
@Boylo2492 Lost 2 fights in the olympics, got the gold with some home cooking, should have been out in the first round. Always fought on home soil as a pro with everything in his favour, against mainly old men and sub par fighters. First fight on away soil was punched from pillar to post by ruiz, bounced off the canvas multiple times and quit. Ran for dear life in the rematch from a man who trained in his fridge and could barely move his feet. Stood on his head twice by Usyk and saved by an early bell from getting ko`d. Those are the facts. Thanks for proving my point. Stupid is as stupid does.
@Nick Kray Just stating facts, suck it up. Is that all you can muster in AJ`s defense. Love it.
Them tickets 😬.
I'm huge fury fan being honest i hope aj beats him if he loses its nearly over the fighting game can be ruthless fury fight looks off ffs I'd love to see canelo vs that other Mexican lad benidez sorry I can't spell his second name but he reminds of the old boxers real mean wants to take your head off with every shot
AJ got lazy he knows that, wanted to be a billionaire:))) time to put the work in to be the best, no more six round spars
To dis day!
Man gives you 15 mins of his time and you completely rephrase one line for clickbait
Send some of them tickets over to me eddward

CHAMP CHAMP
love u too bro
I thought the O2 capacity was 20,000? Not 16,000.
We all no lol
We got offered 40 tickets for free and turned them down.😂
So where is big John fury , , Shane ……NOT TO MENTION! Tyson Fury ????? , in the local park with the rest of the ducks , that’s where !
Mate it's still not April the 1st he could sign now,, oh Usyk's Manager pulled the plug on the 22nd of March, and didn't even honour his own deadline, all mouth and no balls, Usyk said he would fight for 30% and he never,, He said Fury can have until April the 1st to sign but Egis Klimas pulled the plug on the 22nd of March.
@Robb cmon pal Tyson was never going to be ready , even his TRAINER SAID SI , thus yet again the fans that fund the lifestyle lose .
@Danny Brown are you joking he just had a fight he was match fit he said he only needs 4 weeks when he's already in shape. He made a short on Clip-Share agreeing to the fight for Usyk on a run sayin i only need 6 weeks. But any fighter only needs 4 weeks when there fit callum smith took the Canelo fight on 4 weeks notice.
@Danny Brown Callum Smith got 4 weeks to train for Canelo.
@Danny Brown Fury trains everyday, he goes for a 10 mile run every morning,, he goes the gym 3 or 4 times a day look what he was like in lockdown training everyday,, he done a morning workout video with his fans every morning,, and he's always training so he's ready if a fight comes up on short notice.
Misleading subtitle!
Did I miss something when was AJ a star oh maybe because he hasn’t been on Graham Norton for a long time 😂😂😂
Radio Raheem the worse boxing 'jorno' ever.
