    All those years acting as Eddie's robot came to the surface.

    Definitely think AJ had an improved performance. Didn't outbox Usyk at any point but targeted the body well and landed some lovely hooks upstairs too. Just wasn't able to do it consistently. Think he had Usyk hurt on more than one occasion too. Usyk really turned the screw though in those championship rounds as Joshua faded and looked almost dead on his feet. Very impressive from Usyk yet again.

    I thought AJ fought well, he made more or less exactly the technical & tactical adjustments i thought he needed to prefight, circled right, went downstairs, shortened up his guard. Usyk is just better and there's no shame in that. Id watch a third fight or any other guy AJ wants to fight next. Then turn off as soon as the interviews start

    Well I've fought it most of my adult life mate, so rightly or wrongly I think I'm in a better position than most to joke about it. I've got serious empathy for anyone genuinely suffering from any mental illness or neurological condition. Aside from my own struggles, my son is autistic and my wife is both mentally ill and on the spectrum. So yeah, no joke in and of itself I'd agree. If Joshua is mentally ill I wish him genuinely towards better health.

    I do though have more limited sympathy in many instances for celebrities living multi millionaire lifestyles constantly tweeting how fucking hard their lives are. And that's no right wing rant either. Taking a break from social media because it's compromising their state of mind etc and fishing for compliments on how brave they are and blazing a trail. It boils my fecking piss. I'm politically very progressively left wing too, and I'm talking rest of the world political spectrum, not the oddball US one where a slightly left of centre figure like Sanders is considered a radical communist. Anyway, ramble over sorry.

    Retard is a bit of a twattish word these days btw in some circles ;) :crafty:
