People (75% of them, at least), here, on this forum, praised Joshua, he has been among the best HWs ever...............And, today, after he has been defeated, he became the average, stiff robot, without skills, stamina, heart and chin. Do you think it is normal ? I don't........................
...happens all the time, the usual euphoria...in a couple of weeks/months when the dust settles some will reassess the situation ....ValMar wrote: ↑02 Jun 2019, 10:12 ..........Can fight, of course, but this is not important, here, on this topic.

Anyway, Joshua is still among the best, and I hope he will stay on the top or near the top the next decade.ewenhay wrote: ↑02 Jun 2019, 10:15 I don't think that's what's happening though.
The people posting today are mainly the ones that felt he was overrated in the first place.
Normally these posters would be shot down by the Joshua fans. For obvious reasons many of those aren't posting today.
So I don't think there are many who praised Joshua who have turned around and started criticising him. It's just the balance of those posting is different to normal.

I might be more inclined to cheer a guy because he is British but that alone is not enough. I'd cheer on Del Boy or Whyte vs anyone, but AJs been nithing but a manufactured SkyHearn hypejob since day 1.Riddick Blowe wrote: ↑02 Jun 2019, 18:55 Very uniquely British this gleeful celebration of a 'demise' of a guy who looked a little bit too much of a winner for their taste.
I'm sure you'll all crawl back into the woodwork though when he gets back to the top of the division.
I'm not British. And it's not the end of AJ, unless AJ decides it is. AJ has a lot to think about before moving forward. I've never change my thinking of AJ. Always thought he was flawed. Just didn't think it would be a Ruiz who would expose it.Riddick Blowe wrote: ↑02 Jun 2019, 18:55 Very uniquely British this gleeful celebration of a 'demise' of a guy who looked a little bit too much of a winner for their taste.

I can assure you, a 'Wlad style rehabilitation' isn't on the cards. Because he doesn't need to change the way he fights. He just needs to prepare sufficiently and not overlook anyone, like Lewis also made the mistake of doing.
Difference with LL is that he wasn't beat up over several rounds. He got caught because he was careless. Joshua has flaws beyond preparedness or focus.Riddick Blowe wrote: ↑02 Jun 2019, 19:04 I can assure you, a 'Wlad style rehabilitation' isn't on the cards.

A lot of the same type of chuckleheads were making the same comments about Lennox after McCall 1. These people can't help themselves
To be fair, AJ has faced more top-ten world-rated fighters than the vast majority of today’s top heavyweights and has rarely been troubled.
No he doesn't its 18 inchespound per pound wrote: ↑02 Jun 2019, 09:12 Regarding head shots, Joshua has a small neck. Maybe 16 inches think. Very small for a man his size.
Thanks for the link. The only trouble is his neck looks much smaller than Wlad's the photo on the same link and Wlad's neck was about 18.5"Controversial wrote: ↑04 Jun 2019, 07:26 No he doesn't its 18 inches
