Trainer Tony Sims suggests that Anthony Joshua’s recent comeback from his loss to Daniel Dubois is a sign of ageing, as all fighters do soon if they are in the game.
Careful Comparison
Joshua can still win if he is matched carefully, as he was against Eddie Hearn recently, until his loss in the fight against Dubois. AJ has enough left to beat Tyson Fury and then move on, but it will require Hearn to match him with non-boxers.
Joshua, 35 years old (28-4, 25 KOs) suffered his fourth career defeat, defeating IBF heavyweight champion Dubois (22-2, 21 KOs) and fifth knockout on September 21st in front of a large crowd. of 96,000 fans at Wembley Stadium in London.
Joshua has looked good in his previous four fights against opponents, but he was defeated by Dubois and was knocked down four times in this fight.
It looked like the referee was going to stop the contest in the fourth round after Joshua was eliminated, but he seemed to change his mind when he saw AJ get up. Many felt that the war should be ended.
“He had a great career, but everyone gets old. There are always young people, and Daniel Dubois was that young man,” said Tony Sims Secondsout, talking about Anthony Joshua. “There will be a day when he’s Joshua’s age (34), and someone else will come along, and that’s how boxing changes.
“The greats get old, and the young ones pass. It’s part of history that happens. I believe that’s what happened. Joshua had a great career. What he’s done for our sport is amazing. He brought stadiums, big arenas, packed the O2 Arenas out. He brought boxing forward. in Britain.
“It’s a short job. One minute, you’re the little guy in the gym, and the next minute, you’re the biggest guy in the gym, and that’s how fast it goes. This is what I believed happened. Everyone’s moving, and it’s Dubois’ turn now. One day, it will be another young person’s turn. Maybe Moses Itauma will come to the table when the time is right. It’s just age, and that’s what happens.
Joshua has lost to these three fighters:
—Andy Ruiz
– Oleksandr Usyk x 2
—Daniel Dubois
It’s not like Joshua has lost many different fighters in his career, and he still has the power, speed, and skill to keep winning for a decade.
What’s Next for Joshua?
“He is a very rich man, perhaps one of the richest people to ever come from this coast. “They don’t have to fight, but if they do, they’ll be watching Tyson Fury,” said Sims.
The promoters are already talking about Joshua fighting Tyson Fury next, and there is a possibility that we will see this happen. Joshua has decided not to play Daniel Dubois again, and will not be in danger of facing Oleksandr Usyk after two defeats. There aren’t any more compelling fights in the division that fans want to see AJ take on besides Fury.
