I fully accept that AJ needs to fight and that this chap is next on the list but boxers train to beat a specific man with their strengths and weaknesses and AJ will need to adopt different tactics as opposed to Takam who knows exactly how AJ fights and is prepared for it. Whether or not he is...
What is this Carlos Takam like is he any good? He has a decent KO record It must be annoying for AJ as he has trained to beat Pulev who must have been a doubt as apparently Takam has been training and on standby since the original fight was agreed so not exactly a true late replacement
A lot of people will have paid a lot of money to watch a terrible nights boxing I accept that the fighter cannot over come injury but feel that the AJ contest should be cancelled and ticket holders either offered their money back or tickets for the rearranged date whenever it happens.
What amazes me is how 2 judges can score it 118-110 a convincing win and the other a 114-114 draw. According to reports the 118-110 was bit generous.but none of the experts reporting denied that Parker had won.
I dont think that AJ wanted the fight but it was forced upon him. Other than possibly Wilder there are no heavyweights around that would offer him a serious challenge. So what does he do just sit on his titles without defending them?
