One of many AJ threads here was titled -

Tyson Fury Says He'll Knock Anthony Joshua Out In Just Three Rounds
Click to expand...

On last nights performance i don't think Joshua would have made it to the third round with Fury and now i guess we will never know, is it time for Joshua to hang up the gloves?

This guy is deluded "I made a few mistakes in there but that's the name of the game fine margins can cost you at the top level so thank you" not sure what he means by fine margins i bet Dubois has had sparring rounds where his opponent was harder to hit.

He was pummeled around the ring by a much more aggressive fighter. He was clearly protecting his body, but it cost him dearly. He hurt Dubois just before he was knocked down (and out) for the fifth time.

It could well be that he got tactics wrong, but it looked to me that he was beaten by the hungrier man.

The heavyweight division has been the biggest disappointment the past 5 years. Guys ducking each other for too long, and fighting terrible exhibition-esque fights in Saudi with zero atmosphere.

The last 5 years, you say?
Heavyweight boxing has always been as dull as ditchwater.

Bruno aside, my interest in boxing was brought up through the Benn/Eubank era. I always wonder if Eubank would have been a better boxer if the Watson thing hadn't happened.

Later, I've followed folk like Hamed and Hatton.

Not a huge boxing fan these days - the whole PPV thing spoilt it for me. It's become a spectacle.

I really couldn't care less about either AJ or Fury. I'd much rather watch fast, furious fighters than fat blokes lumbering and hugging each other round the ring, waiting for a single opportunity to hit each other really hard.

I appreciate the skill of guys like Floyd Mayweather and Pacquiao, but it's the jeopardy that makes the heavyweight division interesting. Definitely has less of the pure technique of the lighter fighters, but the stakes are higher.

I enjoyed Fury Vs Wilder matches, but all the best fighters have avoided each other since then. Usyk is an extraordinary boxer, but he met Fury years too late, and in a dreadful atmosphere in Saudi. Big events like that should be nowhere near Riyadh.

I enjoyed the Hatton and Calzaghe years.

I can remember Tyson, but was too young to watch him fight. I'd have lived to have loved through the years of Foreman, Frazier and Ali.
