The stiffness came in rounds 3 and 4, round 1 and 2 Joshua was all over him like a rash and thought it was a forgone conclusion. He was every bit as lackadaisical as Fury was against Cunningham or the Latvian plasterer. The differences being that Whyte is probably better than both of them (yes on the whole Cunningham is more accomplished) and Joshua never hit the deck.

Do yourself a favour and watch the no commentary edit of the fight. It might enlighten you.
