George Foreman thinks Joshua should get a new manager, not do the rematch, and take the time to address the failings in his training/conditioning regime. If he does these things, George believes Joshua can come again and be better than ever as a boxer.

George does acknowledge Joshua has made a lot of money. If making more, rather than being the best boxer he can be, is his priority then the above paragraph may be redundant.

Difficult isn’t it, if he changes everything and loses again everyone will blame all the changes for unsettling him. He needs to fight more regularly though, two fights in 2017, two in 2018 and what will be two in 2019 isn’t great for someone with so few amateur fights and a lot of quick wins as a pro

Foreman does talk a lot of rubbish sometimes but this time he's right,unfortunately i do think it's all about the money and rushing back in like this will end in tears for Joshua.

Wishful thinking. It's all over for AJ imo, he is nearly 30, I can't see him at this age miraculously gaining new slicker skills or reinventing some formidable Larry Holmes style jabber as some people so nonchalantly suggest. This guy didn't start fighting in the ams until he was 19. Andy Ruiz' boxing career started when he was 6. I said all along AJ was just too basic and it was a matter of time until someone could handle his power and break him down. There's also a real question mark over AJs punch resistance imo.

Lengthy overseas "Strength & Conditioning" camps prevent him fighting more often.
