I just think he went in there too heavy and his bulk and weight is costing him.
Look at how Calzaghe fought, never too big, always ready for 12 rounds and fast enough to score a lot of points.
Obviously very different weights, but the point here is that had AJ gone down that route instead of coming in even heavier, he'd have scored more points and made a closer fight of it.
Will be very interesting to see Fury v Usyk. I think Fury can do better of course, but he's not very comfortable with southpaws and he's going to get clipped a lot by Usyk's speed.
Makes for an intriguing fight!
