Bryan Danielson, renowned for his striking skills in the ring, recently revealed that he never seriously considered stepping into the boxing world.<\/p>\n
In an interview with Boxing Social, the former AEW World Champion explained why boxing was never on his radar. He said,<\/p>\n
\u201cI have too much respect for boxers. I\u2019ve trained a lot in muay-thai and jiu-jitsu, but one of my weaknesses in muay-thai has always been my punches \u2014 I\u2019m much better with kicks. When I lived in Las Vegas, my coach sent me to train with some boxers. I ended up sparring with 16-year-old kids, and they completely lit me up. [laughs]\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n He continued, \u201cBoxing footwork and head movement at the elite level is on another level. I couldn\u2019t even land a shot on this 16-year-old. He knew I\u2019d had a number of concussions and was careful not to hit me hard \u2014 but even then, he was able to just tap me whenever he wanted. It really gave me perspective. Even talking to someone like Anthony Ogogo in AEW, you realize that once you reach the top tier in boxing, it\u2019s a whole different game.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n AEW President Tony Khan has announced that AEW World Champion Jon Moxley will join forces with The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) to face Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs, and Swerve Strickland on this week\u2019s episode of Dynamite.<\/p>\n This showdown serves as a preview of the upcoming Anarchy in the Arena match at Double or Nothing, where Moxley and Swerve will lead opposing teams.<\/p>\n You can check out the updated lineup for this week\u2019s episode of AEW Dynamite below:<\/p>\n * Mina Shirakawa vs. Julia Hart (Toni Storm on commentary) This Wednesday, 5\/21#AEWDynamite<\/a> World Champion @JonMoxley<\/a> + @youngbucks<\/a> After Death Riders injured The Opps\u2019 Shibata, \u2014 Tony Khan (@TonyKhan) May 19, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n NOTE:<\/b> If you have any news tips or podcast recaps that you\u2019d like to send in for us to post (full credit will be given to you), please email me at [email\u00a0protected]<\/a>.<\/p>\n
