The discussion kicks off with Joshua's shocking defeat to Dubois, where many fans express disbelief over his performance. Critics highlight Joshua's form since his losses to Usyk, suggesting that he appeared gun-shy, lacking the aggression needed in the ring. There is a palpable sense of anxiety among the commentators about Joshua's future in the sport, especially considering the multitude of knockdowns he suffered during the fight.12
As the conversation unfolds, opinions diverge on the implications of Joshua's performance. Some argue that this may signal the end of his career, emphasizing the need for him to reassess his approach or contemplate retirement. Others criticize the lack of urgency in his corner, feeling that they should have pulled him from such a one-sided contest earlier.34
The sentiment shifts slightly as fans begin to discuss potential next steps for Joshua. While some believe he may not have the skill set to reclaim his status, others hold out hope for a comeback. Dubois, credited for his impressive performance, raises questions about how Joshua will deal with future matchups against formidable opponents.56
"Dubios destroyed him there. That was a brilliant performance."
"Thought he was going to stage a comeback them ooof."
Verdict
Overall, the thread reveals deep concerns regarding Joshua's boxing future. While Dubois is praised, Joshua's viability as a top contender remains in serious doubt. His next steps will likely determine his legacy and potential return to form.
Brook should definitely retire now.
That GGG fight killed his career. A stupid and unnecessary fight really.

Did anyone bother with Spence vs Garcia?
Watched the last three rounds or so. Thought Spence looked decent - the car crash doesn't seem to have affected him too badly. Garcia threw the kitchen sink in the last ten seconds which was entertaining but makes you wonder why he didn't show that level of aggression earlier.
I watched it this afternoon. Pretty simple fight overall, Spence just outboxed him round after round.
Not sure what Pulev said to Joshua at the weigh in, but it rattled him.
Joshua should of known better. Pulev was always gonna come out talking shit after the blatant racist comments he made earlier.
Now he's in his head rent free.

Anyone watching the boxing?
Pulev very vulnerable to left hook and right uppercut. Brilliant third round from Joshua. I thought the referee was going to stop it when Pulev turned his back.

Joshua is brilliant offensively like. Fair play to Pulev for taking those.
