Good for him, better to go out while he's in good health, and still well thought of. Another one of those uppercuts and that may not be the case.

The right decision imo.

He was brilliant in the Joshua fight and it would have been easy for him to agree to the rematch and pocket another fortune whilst getting floored again imho. However, he's obviously decided he can't put his body through any more and he's done. Fair play to him.

He earned more respect from me in that loss than any of his safety first victories over the years. Showed immense skill, rolled back the years and re-invented himself to very nearly pull it off.

That fight cemented him as a legend in the sport. Without it, he would have been seen as a very good fighter in a bad era.

The Vlad of 6 years ago would of ironed out AJ no problem.

 

[Philw]

This guy??

 

[Connor]

Plenty of time with Hayden Panettiere now like. Lucky sod.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Pretty sure he'll be back coaching the boxer that fights the son of the guy he killed in the ring.

Absolutely. It wouldn't have even been close.
