‘It’s Too Easy’ for Anthony Joshua to Lose, Says Tim Bradley Jr.

Anthony Joshua used to be the heavyweight king. However, On September 25, Joshua lost his belts for the second time. The Ukrainian Cruiserweight champion, in just his third fight in the heavyweight division, caused a massive upset as he beat the Brit. Usyk dominated Joshua for the majority of the fight.

This result shocked a lot of former boxers and fans alike. Anthony ‘AJ’ Joshua was on the receiving end of a lot of criticism from fans and analysts. Recently, Timothy Bradley Jr, a former champion, reacted to his loss and uncovered why he thinks Joshua lost.

“Joshua didn’t come to fight. It’s a different mentality. See, you know, Joshua, his mentality is way different than Tyson Fury. Joshua’s okay, he’s okay, it just seems like he’s comfortable with losing in a fight. He’s gracious or whatever you gonna call it, has humility or whatever you gonna call it, but it’s too easy for me boss.”

“I mean, ‘oh it’s okay it’s okay it’s okay bro’. Listen, it’s hard to train when you got the whole world at your feet bro. And it’s hard to train and stay focused and stay dedicated and having that hunger and desire bro. Because success, that weakens this (Points to the brain) bro.” Bradley said.

Joshua and his promotion Matchroom Boxing have invoked the rematch clause. That means Joshua will now fight Oleksandr ‘The Cat’ Usyk in a rematch early in 2022.

“Joshua and Usyk, I think they’re going to wait until April 4,” Arum said in an interview with FightHub. “I think Fury will fight again in March or April. Then we can look to a September or October match for a unification.” This also possibly indicates that the winner of the rematch will fight Fury for unifying the heavyweight titles.
