So what's the point of Joshua's long-ish hairstyle ? It gives him some mental fortitude ?

[oogiebe]

I heard him interviewed a couple of days ago and he said he's done it because he's trying to capture the spirit of the 70s.

He particularly cited Ron Lyle and his fight with Foreman.

Also referenced Ali and how he has worked more on his boxing technique and less on weights, strength and conditioning.

I don't really understand how having a 70s style mini afro is going to benefit him, but he seems to believe it will, so we shall see.

So he wants to pull a Ron Lyle performance and get knocked out in 5.
Ok AJ

The guy has come undone.

Joshua is going for the haircut of a true warrior

That is hysterical!

Dude can't even grow his hair even a little bit

[Bandog]

It's probably because Khan's wife likes longer hair.

Probably Joshua wants to be remembered after his look like the greatest HW's of boxing (Ali, Fraizer and Foreman).

I didn't even think about his hair until I read this. I must have missed the memo that black guys have to have crew cuts.

Umm, perhaps Ruiz's weight is more vital.

You might want to grab the Eubank Warriors code its point number 3 - one shall grow his hair through trials and tribulations!

This is right down there with the thread about Klitschko's child birth.

Clearly to help absorb any temple shots from Andy, come on lads, it’s obvious

[cormack]

Longish ??

I got ball hair longer than that !

Strategically he may add candy extensions to distract Ruiz. If he puts tootsie pops at the end of his hair Ruiz will get dqd for biting and lewd behavior. This is going to be a whitewash.

Adding Snickers, Twix and Milky Way bars would do a better job.

Perhaps, but he could snap them off and punch. The lollipop makes him clinch.
