    Most heavyweight prospects get a reality check at some point and this was his tonight

    Whyte was no patsy, he'd be wilders best or second best opponent, and joshua is at a much earlier stage then wilder
    I would put a decent amount of money Dillian Whyte beating Wilder.

      It seems that depends on your source...Eddie Hearn says 43...what is your source?

        So you pick 4 of the best Heavyweights in the world to beat a 14 fight prospect?

        That's some astute insight you have there

          Yeah 43, not 34. My mistake.

          You can revert to the olympic footage, he spoke about his record before it started.

            The slowing down was done by Dillian Whyte who is one hell of a body puncher.
            That's likely because Dillian Whyte on his best day wears a C-Cup bra.

            Joshua's stamina is clearly woeful. He was blowing out his arse at the end of round 2.

              People are being over critical of AJ. This was supposed to be one of those fights where a prospect is tested to see if he can deal with crisis on a bum level, which Joshua did well. Dillian is a live dog.


              I hope they aren't thinking of wasting time fighting Chisora next, the only other domestic fight worth the time would be Hughie Fury. European level should be next. Teper, Helenius etc.


              His stamina is absolutely horrendous and he needs to tighten that defense up a bit.




              My overall review would be so, far, so good.

                PM to remind me of this if they do.

                  I think Chisora will be next. That's why he was added to the card, he's not even a Hearn fighter. He's not doing Chisora a favour, he was trying to get Chisora back in peoples thoughts so he can match him up with Joshua.

                  Chisora doesn't carry much power and isn't really that mobile but he is looking quite seasoned now and only Haye, Vitali and Fury have beaten him properly. He was pretty solid but i think a 2016 version of Chisora doesn't really have much left to give Joshua any major problems. Hearn will know Chisora will play his part in hyping the fight, he's still well known even to casuals because of the Haye business and they're selling Joshua to the casuals. So right now Chisora is the perfect fight to grow that hype train.

                  They should milk it while they can. Joshua is nothing special.

                    Not sure that was a stamina issue tbf.

                    He got wobbled and looked slow and stiff for the remainder of round two and also round 3. After that he recovered and started throwing his combos again and moving better.
