That was a joke... to be fair I'm not sure why that didn't happen with Fury!

That was a bit one sided. Hope the fella is ok.

Joke how shite Fury was the first night maybe. AJ very impressive 2nite.

Amazing how the Brits think this was impressive by AJ. Never fail to amaze me.

That was impressive by AJ. Man has found his mojo again.

It's only seen as impressive because Fury was clearly not interested first time around.

That's exactly how Ngannou should fare against a heavyweight contender. You can read very little into how AJ will do in his next fight against an actual boxer!

Lad not a boxer, simple as that.This constant invasion by UFc, celebrities, you tubers into boxing has made a mess of it.

What about his last one? His rehabilitation is going rightly.

If Fury loses to Usyk (on current form it's likely) a Battle of Britain blockbuster is surely on the cards - belts or not. No point AJ fighting Usyk again but him v Fury would be worth watching.

Boxers usually deteriorate physically but the weird case with AJ was that he obviously had mental issues which affected his performances post losing to Ruiz. He became more hesitant, committed less offensively etc. and even tried to just outbox Usyk. Based on the last 2 fights under BDs tutelage, it looks like he has overcome those issues now and looks like the old front foot fighter he was. That fighter could beat Usyk, or Fury.
