Anthony Joshua retires from Boxing

i dont think Joshuas uncle is allowed to retire Joshua, no matter how needy some of these blag news things are for hits

 

[burningspear]

He's up in age, just received his biggest pay-day and mental strength was never his forte, its obviously for the best, if it lasts. But Hearn will have him fighting again if at all possible.

 

[wannabetoughguy]

I hope he does. Good career and nothing left to prove. So much trauma to overcome. Prizefighting should be the last thing on his mind.

Good decision made a bundle and still seems in good shape once recovered from accident ofc.

 

[Doctor Grudge]

I def think he'll at least retire temporarily. Probably wont be his last fight ever though. I can see him coming back for 1 or 2 more for shits n giggles after he's rehabilitated.

 

[Pittie Petey]

He just beat Jake Paul, cant climb no higher than that in this fine bidness, might as well go out on top

Good for him , if you can’t dedicate yourself to it 100% then get the hell out before you get hurt

I did always want to see him fight Fury , that’s a shame it never happened

 

[Blastbeat]

I'm not surprised and it's probably a good thing for AJ. he is a two time unified heavyweight world champion. That's not a bad accolade to hang your hat on.
Hope he recovers fully, health-wise and emotionally. He's been through a lot

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

Not a surprise at all. It was expected to me imo. Losing two of your closest trainers / best friends in that manner and you miraculously surviving puts life in perspective. And I'm sure he has severe ptsd.

Take care Anthony, wish you the best in whatever you do in life after boxing.

 

[Deaths Head]

Why do ppl think he’s retiring ?

He’s obviously going to maybe take some time off then target Fury after he wins on tune up , even then he will try for another title run .

Until Joshua himself makes the statement it’s fake news .

 

[defjaam]

Retirements don't mean much with the Saudi money these days. Joshua vs. Fury going down at the end of this year.

 

[Mr.Maelstrom]

Whatever he does, God bless him he's been a great personality for HW with a blast or get blasted style to boot.

Thanks for the Vlad fight especially

 

[Natural Order]

Good call AJ. Go out with your health and a good chunk of change before both disappear.

Thanks for the fights big man
