His on about rematch now do you believe this crap.

Daniel Dubois stunned Anthony Joshua with a fifth-round knockout victory to retain the IBF world heavyweight title at Wembley Stadium; Joshua was knocked down four times in total, including in the opening round

I’m
Did you watch the fight?
I did yes, AJs face was the same when Usyk fought him, it was one of fear of losing

No fighting spirit was the bit I was referring to.

No fighting spirit implies he gave up after the first knockdown which begs the question, why bother getting up after each knockdown, especially the last when he looked like his brains were scrambled?
Fighting spirit is one aspect of his performance which was still there for me, his defence, head and hand movement, speed and punch resistance on the other hand.

Didn't watch it, thought it would be a routine win for AJ. How wrong was I?
I don’t think taking the rematch is such a crazy idea this time. It’s not like Usyk where AJ couldn’t land, Dubois is easy to hit and beatableHis on about rematch now do you believe this crap.

This should be not allowed AJ wasn't a champion to deserve rematch.

Good for redbull stage.
I think people are being a bit harsh to AJ, he’s achieved a huge amount, fought everyone who’s been put in front of him and had huge success, despite some issues.
He’s also done so much for British boxing - don’t forget that.
Dubois was an animal last night, in a form we’ve never seen him at - new blood on the way up and he was able to rise to it.

This exactly confirms how **** HW boxing is right now.
AJ has achieved loads yeh.
Dubois is an average HW boxer!!

AJ always has been a paper fighter. Looks the part but under thst exterior there's mediocre skills and very little ring intelligence.
I've been saying it for years he's only got this big due to the press and his PR team.
Hope this is the end if the AJ Hype Train

He’s got big, because he was an Olympic gold medalist who turned pro - then beat everyone who ended up in front of him - in amazing fights, he’s a good fighter to watch and a good guy - and that’s fine.
Yes we know his background?
Had a lot to do with Daniel being incredibly strong and hard hitting, he beat Usyk in my opinion but the Ref wrongly called it a low blow. It wasnt, it was a legal shot.

I went to wembley last night. With the decent undercard we thought £100 a ticket wasnt too bad value. Im an AJ fan, average heavyweight but a decent guy. He should have quit after the shambles that was the 2nd Usyk fight.
Dubois fought really well, you have to give him credit for the win. Be interesting to see who he fights next.
Great event, they put on a great show, was surprised to see the anthems played, dont recall this at a boxing match before? Hutchinson vs Buatsi was a decent fight, was hoping for Denny vs Shiraz to be a bit better. Traffic meant we missed the 1st 2 fights. Wouldnt go again though, cheap seats meant i may aswell have been sat at home watching it on a screen
and far too many idiots who cant take their drink or ones that cant hold on to their pints
Oh and Liam Gallagher was shocking.
