“Talking about ‘The Savage’, his performance was very good. I’m proud of him and what he’s achieved. He went in there and took out a good opponent who went five rounds with Joseph Parker so well done to him. I hope he goes on to bigger and better things.”

Moreover, he commented on the high volume pace that Babic put on his opponent from the opening bell. AJ had an interesting take on Alen Babic’s game plan to start off guns blazing right as the fight kicked off.

“It is a pace he goes at, we all have to learn. Right now the momentum he is on, I think you just have to ride that wave. Until that jab does smash him back in the face, and he thinks ‘hang on a minute, I have to change my tactics’, you just have to let the man do what he thinks is the best for him. It’s all about learning, right now he got the win, he got the stoppage so onto bigger and better things.”

Anthony Joshua remains the consummate professional inside and outside the ring while commenting on his contemporaries. Boxing fans are equally excited about his future in broadcasting, along with his buzzing fight career.
