Is AJ’s defence strategy weak OR mental tactics? However I still believe that you start winning when you stop defending #AJ💪🔥

For you to be a beast... you need to overcome your weaknesses... this is AJ learning how to get up whenever he is down... this fight was a true test for his mental capacity... not ever fighter is a clean boxer but he has to become a beast to conquer...

You are absolutely right

@Apostle_23 I think those times he fell are tactics to give the opponent an air of possible victory. He did it always when he's looking for weak spot in the opponent especially when the boxer gets carried away with a quick taste of early victory.

@SlimmytiNY Look at his legs when he takes a hit... look at his composure when the guy finds his chin... he is learning to stay up... so its not deliberate... what was deliberate was facing someone bigger than him and who lands huge punches too...

AJ is not a natural boxer, he trained to be a boxer

Hmm you sure about this? If you say he started late I can understand but saying he’s not a natural boxer?

AJ is an overachiever. People forget he started boxing very late. These dudes been boxing at very early age. His foundation is porous. At his prime his power and speed bails him out. You can see how these guys gives him problems during exchanging combinations. Love him tho 👊🏾

This is based! You are absolutely spot on.

AJ is a great boxer, but he needs to improve his defense. He often leaves himself exposed to counterattacks.

He opens himself too much, reason why he always struggles against strong opponents

AJ depends on landing his heavy right most times and people somehow caught up to it but back then, he used to knock people out quick.

Yes you are right

AJ was lucky. Its a weak tactics.

Exactly, if those punches were power punch he wouldn’t have made it through.

AJ no good abeg If Wielder catch catch him ehn

Hmm

Mostly static during exchange, zero leg work at defense. These days he's mostly lucky

You are right!

Man should leave boxing. Hate to see him hurt.

Same here

you start winning when you stop defending is the dumbest thing I've heard...

Blast ko

He likes countering and that opens you up especially if you don’t see the shots coming

Right!

I like how people thinks Fury will win him...but AJ will come up with the win. Fury that was docking AJ since, now he's beltless, he wants to fight AJ.

AJ never recovered from his first defeat, in the version at which he was KO affected him physiologically. He's ever since scared to engage his opponent.

Hmm

Omo I love Aj so much I pray he wins his nxt match

AJ is a below average boxer. Very mediocre! Small boys in Shitta and Mushin will destroy him in seconds

My money is in fury sha

Fury 💀💀

He has a better change of winning

I think he lacks some basics e.g footwork, also confidence issues could also be in the mix

Hmm

@D_CE0_ He’s very weak and poor in defense I saw a video of him and little boy today, the little boy also got him

@D_CE0_ I have a different opinion regarding his weakness but I agree that he has poor defense

@D_CE0_ I’ve watched many of AJ’s fights, and all I can say is that his defense is his weakness.

Waooo AJ almost loss the fight 🧐

AJ all the way 💯👍

Forever!

He needs to work on his footing or leg 🦵 positioning ... He doesn't stand balanced most times, I know a pundit has complained before too. Thank goodness he has a good recovery mentality.

What a comeback

He's scared and that's what's holding him back

Attack is the best form of defense

His foot work

Right

The best way to defend is to attack.

Exactly!

Sadly, furry wins.

Fr furry is a monster

AJ no Sabi box abeg

Haba is this not extreme? I just feel his defense is weak

If you watch him against proper boxer who is aggressive and strong enough to take AJ punches, he will suddenly become lost and out of idea.

Eddie really loves this

@grok when was this AJ fight?

AJ never trains defense. He always punches and that is why he get knocked out easily!

I said the same thing, his defense is weak the only edge he has is his punch.
