Joshua - Whyte (What A Fight)
Great fight. Loved it. Joshua answered a lot of question. Also great performance by Whyte. He tested Joshua like he's never been tested b4. I think Whyte has a future. Wow what show. Not to mention another great fight before by Eubank Jnr. Well worth the money.

Two British hw's having a tear up , it was very exciting.
Re: Joshua - Whyte (What A Fight)
AJ thought it was going to be an easy blow out after the 1st round and started to tease Whyte in the second until he got hurt and wobbled. Whyte won the 3rd but then AJ took over when he re-focused from the 4th round onwards.
The knock out shows AJ has brutal power.
Re: Joshua - Whyte (What A Fight)
I agree with Master. I think Joshue got too emotional and allowed Whyte to get into his head, so he stood right in front of Whyte wanting a tear up. He fought Whytes fight for the first three rounds and he did look quite ponderous and disheveled at times. The second round was the worst round he has experienced in his life!
Once he started to control the distance better, he boxed Whytes ears off and gave him a battering (he was also much fitter than Whyte)
Whyte was tough, and very game. I'm delighted that he actually came to win and he showed some nice old pro tricks here and there, even though he hasn't had many fights.
Joshua was excellent. He showed his boxing skill, he demonstrated excellent fitness and he showed chin and heart. The finish was devastating, and there is no question about his viciousness in the ring. A good showcase for British boxing

Re: Joshua - Whyte (What A Fight)
Great fight, I rate Joshua but can also see why some would doubt him, he is a bit stiff and doesn't jab enough to me. What the hell was Whyte doing after the first round, on a side note? VERY lucky not to have been DQ'ed.

Anyone disqualified Whyte would have been battered by the press and crowd.
Re: Joshua - Whyte (What A Fight)
It was a terrific fight. Totally showed up that boring heavyweight championship of the world fight a couple of weeks back.
If Wlad-Fury served up something like that it would be talked up as one of the greatest fights in heavyweight history.

As a boxing fan you dont sound very keen on boxing:rolleyes:
Re: Joshua - Whyte (What A Fight)
I wonder how many punches where thrown , it did seem a lot , was it comparable to Tua v Ibeabuchi ?
It was so much better to see two young bucks throwing bombs as opposed to a guy pushing 40 who has no punch output.

Sometimes the best fighters in the world are in boring fights. Skill/entertainment don't go hand in hand.
Fury-Wlad was utter boring shit compared with AJ-Whyte.
