Anthony Joshua v Dillian Whyte - Massive Bill

While I may have refused to shell out for last week's Tyson Fury fight because of the complete lack of any kind of support acts, I'm increasingly coming to think that the Anthony Joshua PPV may actually be one I'm willing to pay for.

It is stacked with some of the best of British talent, its got some great matchups, some good up and comers, tidy domestic fighters and even another Kevin Mitchell world title shot. If I'm paying for a card, then six or seven decent matchups do tend to be more my style than one huge fight and limited support.

I'm exactly the same. Don't have no problem paying a score for half-a-dozen quality fights on the same card - whether it's "world," British or European level. I didn't buy last weeks fight or Pac-Floyd.

Anthony Joshua-Dilian Whyte
Chris Eubank jr-Spike O'Sullivan
Kevin Mitchell-Ismael Barroso
Tony Bellew-Mateusz Masternak
Luke Campbell-Yvan Mendy
Paulie Malignaggi-Gianluca Branco
Josh Warrington-Jorge Sanchez

Tough fights for Mitchell and Bellew, can see possible upsets there. Campbell's opponent went 12 rounds with Postol. Paulie has landed his dream of an all-Italian European title fight in London - as he's an honorary Brit. Completely mad. Brilliant. And the two top fights are genuine grudge matches, someone is getting proper chinned.

To be fair, I can see the value and there are some interesting fights , but I begrudge the whole principle of ppv when I fucking pay a Sky subscription. I have given in on the past, for Floyd v Pac, both Froch v Groves fights in the hope that Froch would get ko'd , and I probably will for Quigg v Frampton.
Anyway, it's the X-Factor final on the 12th! 😂😂

When I first saw that Joshua v Whyte was going to be PPV, I thought that it was a big pile of shit and that I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole, but the card is stacked, and its five or six hours of good competitive boxing. Beers will be in.

Any ideas on start times?

My best guess would be a five or six pm start to get things done before 1am...

Having checked the PPV starts at 5pm on SS.

The fact that Josh Warrington is sixth in the pecking order says everything really. He, warrington who has headlined shows in the past. It's a very good card.

Yes Warrington has a big fanbase.

10.45 is the scheduled ring walk for AJ-Whyte. The Matchroom bills are pretty slick compared to old FW but they must fancy some KO's for their boys, otherwise it will be pushing it a bit.

Wonder if this will be radio?

Iv just been on paddypower and looked at some boxing odds.

They have the Fury v Klitschko rematch up and a potential Fury v Joshua match. Bear in mind that Tyson Fury has just beaten the best fighter on the planet with ease and is facing him in a rematch and that Joshua is yet to fight for even a British title and get out of the third round and try to get your head round these odds...

Fury 10/11 Klitschko 10/11

Fury 5/4 Joshua 8/13

The rematch is seen as an even money fight, more 50/50 than the first! Then Joshua is the favourite??;D
@Silkeyjoe have you been drinking compiling these?;D

Fucking Hell! Ross talking about betting again, like he's knows the first thing about it!😂😀😂😂 now he's trying to tell Silkeyjoe his job!
Toss, (sorry Ross, Freudian Slip.) you may have guessed the outcome of one fight correctly, for which I have given you continuous credit, but please, please don't try to talk about betting, because you know absolutely Jack Shit about it!
Still , look on the bright side, now he's best Wlad, the odds have changed on him v Haye and he's slight favourite now. Mind you, Haye hasn't fought for 3 years! No Doubt, if Haye beats De Mori, he will be favourite again!! 😂😂

As I'm now interested in the HW division again, for the first time in over a decade..... I'm looking forward to this fight.

http://www.boxingnews24.com/2015/10/...evised-in-u-s/


I just wonder how many of the fights they'll televise over here...... have a feeling it would just be the headliner.

Was driving up to my folks' house tonight with the radio on, and Mike Costello was saying that it will be on Five Live. The fact that they only talked about Joshua/Whyte though made me think it will only be one or two fights that will be on there, which was fine for me last week, but with so many good ones I'd not like to miss them.

Yes they probably will only broadcast the main event. It is wrong they ppv these fights when you have a subscription already. These fights should be on normal sky sports channel.

They can hype the fight up all they want it is just another Lennox lewis v Gary Mason domestic level fight at best.

If you noticed Ross we were stand out on Wlad for the fight with Fury so we rarely get it wrong. I cant see Wlad fighting as badly as he did in the rematch. Has to be more aggressive. As I mentioned before I dont think Fury boxed particularly well against Wlad. He did ok at spells but I think he will struggle if he fights like that against an aggressive fighter like Joshua.

It will be reverse. An aggressive fighter like Joshua will struggle with Fury. Tyson wont be there when he tries to throw. It will look like his fight with Savon in the olympics getting his head boxed off.
I have a feeling the odds are more reflecting that people just cant believe Tyson is as good as he is. He will have no problem proving everyone wrong again.;)

Tell you what I said Fury v Klitschko would be similar to Liston v Clay and it was. Fury boxed rings round Klitschko.

Im thinking the rematch may be similar too.

Anyway, you wouldnt be rich you dont bet! When you do its an imaginary £200 with "someone" that you lost because you wouldnt have t that Tyson would win easy.....

How he goes from winning easy in Germany to struggling I dont know!

Yes, you're right Ross, you DON'T KNOW, in fact you haven't got a fucking Clue. Dunno about. "imaginary" bets, but what I do know is that you were offered a £200 bet, which you claim to have "not read the post." I find that hard to believe because you have read and replied to every other post relating to Fury on every single thread!
Also, I asked you on more than one occasion if you had had an actual REAL Money bet on the fight, and other people asked you as well. Again, the question fell on deaf ears, absolutely no reply, which leads me to believe that YOU , SIR ARE THE ONLY BOTTLER ROUND HERE!!
These posts are there set in stone for everyone to see, you don't have to take my word for it, they are FACTS!

You sound like a cry baby.

This is what I imagine you look like everytime you read my posts http://images.medicaldaily.com/sites...ealthy-mom.jpg

Lads start a separate thread for your bickering. No need to clog up threads with it.

Back to this thread. Gutted Im missing this card but will be flying back from Amsterdam around this time. Debating whether to buy the PPV and watch it the next day but with bets had and results hard to avoid not sure if its worth it.

You two are funny.

Oh, and when you said Liston v Clay was similar to this, I would love to see the punch stats in the Liston v Clay fight.
Don't get me wrong, Fury deserved to beat Wlad, fair and Square and I think will probably do so again, but it's not quite the "Earth Shuddering" performance you are making it out to be. It's a case of someone winning rounds because they landed 5 shots a round instead of someone who landed 2 shots a round. Come on Ross, you're an ex Boxing Judge, you should know this! Ah, forgot, you didn't understand that much either! 😂
The way the "Smart Money" or "Experts" or whatever see it, Wlad won't have as bad a night again (I debate that btw) and that he's not quite what he has been.
As for Fury v Joshua, they are saying that by the time they fight, Joshua will have more ambition and Aggression than Wlad had and he's not going to be as worried as Wlad was about getting hit in order to get his shots off.
Fury did great last week, but it all goes for nothing when the next fight comes around. That's what's it's like when you're champ.

Have to say I agree with @Master that if you took this bill, chopped it into three and made it into three consecutive fight weekends then it would make for a good month on Sky Sports. However, as its PPV, I guess that my action as of February (when the NFL is done with for the year), is to bring my Sports and Movies package down to a standard subscription, and only purchase the PPVs.

We all know we don't have to have the Sky Sports subscription to follow fights that are on Sky Sports if we wanted to look for alternatives. They've kind of pissed on their chips with me with the way things are going recently.

Yes, well you always have had a good imagination , I can tell that with the shite you post! 😂

Enough of the Fury bitching, it's boring now so fuck off into another thread and do it there.
I've got my company Xmas party on the 12th so will miss this live so will have to watch the repeat on Sunday.
Joshua v Whyte "gloves are off" was on SS1 earlier and you can feel the tension between them both.
Genuine grudge match thats ending in a KO.
Id say AJ has more power but Whyte can bang too.
Great thing is that neither has been hit hard so far in the professionals so that alone makes it very interesting.
I think AJ will be too much for him and think around the 2nd or 3rd will start finding Whyte easily and landing bombs to win by stoppage.
Brilliant card from top to bottom.
Infact it'll be the best night of boxing shown in 2015 :)

Anymore posts in this thread about Fury are getting binned. Don't waste your time.

This is rubbish for a face-to-face off. However, Spike was billed as a trash talker when making this fight but I don't recall him being a big mouth in the past (not sure what was said on twitter). Which seems a bit unfair on him.

Eubank Jr's personality shines though. He's better without his dad shadowing him.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMxXJGtz66k

Surprised his dad was not standing in the corner with him on skype.

First and foremost, i think Eubank Jr. Is an overrated , disrespectful, deluded Cock! He doesn't possess that much skill, is raw, tries to make every punch a knockout punch by loading up ridiculously, and as proved in the first 6 rounds against Saunders, doesn't have a great Boxing brain.
However, he looks and sounds more composed and rational when his Dad isn't around. If he's anywhere near as good as he or other people are trying to make him out to be, He will win this fight very easily. He dwarfs O'Sullivan, who himself has a bit of a Bar room Brawler style, and i can't see getting anywhere near him. One thing Eubank Jr. Does possess is good conditioning and stamina.
Easy fight for Eubank Jr. That doesn't prove a lot to me.

I think there is a real chance at an upset in both headliners. Joshua's bulk makes him look a little stiff and posted above the waist. Sure he's destroyed his opponents but that strength conditioning could cost him. Really looking forward to this card.

Whyte on the other hand is powerful but slow. It is an interesting match up, and I don't think Whyte is the guy to beat Joshua, I reckon it will be Joshua getting to his punches first...just hope he's started practicing defence!

Agree totally. This is designed for Joshua to get an old foe off his back. I don't believe Whyte has a hope really but I never thought Mayorga would beat the Viper twice or the Viper beat Shane twice.
All I'm saying I guess is that it is a bit of a mental stumbling block or rather could be. The main difference here I guess between those two examples is that Whyte is not fighting the same fighter as he previously did. Shane fought Vernon the same way he fought him in the amateurs and lost just the same.

I think Joshua will come out full force and put it on him straight away, like I said it'll be interesting to see if Whyte can ride it out and fire some bombs back.
I actually hope he can and he catches AJ full force and they get into a war.
Joshua needs to be tested and he needs this now.
He's WBC number 2 ranked and is yet to be close to being tested and could end up fighting Wilder within 12 months.
I think whoever wins out of Whyte and Joshua goes on to a world title.
Joshua inside 3 rounds - ref stops fight!

I think AJ is the dogs bollocks and will be the next great heavyweight champ.

However, I also think Dillian is a genuine hard cunt. Now whether or not he gets chinned early, he won't jump on the floor, he'll fire his own bombs until it's over. Someone is getting their head knocked off.

I think Whyte wins but not as certain as I was about Fury over Wlad and thats mainly because I havent followed or taken as much notice of Whyte as I have Tyson, plus he was out for 2 years and only been back 1!

I see Joshua is quite stiff and loads up. I think that unnatural 20lb of bulk hes put on since turning pro 2 years ago is going to be his undoing. He has not even felt what the 4th feels like yet and has already given his stamina a handicap when he has to go past the 4th. He hasnt been whacked in the face by anyone there to win yet either.

When he is whacked he will be made to think which he hasnt had to do yet and will start hesitating and he will drain and tire. I see it looking like Haye v Thompson with Joshua going hell for leather trying to stop Whyte and Whyte just being tougher and battering an exhausted Joshua.
People are saying Whyte is rubbish so if Joshua loses to him hes just another Price.

If AJ is the bollocks, and Whyte is the cunt, does that make Eddie Hearn the prick in the middle? The cunt to get a pounding IMO.

Bullet Tooth Rhun. :D

I don't really understand the Whyte narrative. He's forever calling Joshua a fake, telling him to be himself. Never ever qualifies it, contradicts himself on how he's come to this conclusion. At one point they're mates and Whyte's lending Joshua a pair of strides to go to a club, next he's spent some time with him, next he spoke to him a few times. I don't really know where it comes from. I wonder about Whyte's mental strength, Joshua has remained calm throughout, Whyte constantly wants to have it out on the cobbles.


I see Joshua winning the fight, for me he's just a better fighter all around. People are concerned about his stamina, his muscularity, his chin. None of those things will go away until he gets clumped and goes 8, 10, 12 rounds, that's the way it goes. Whyte wont roll over I don't doubt that for a second, he'll be there for a few rounds and will make Joshua fight at his top end.
