Joshua - Whyte set, date TBC.

That's good matchmaking.

Whyte gets a guy that has never been stopped to give him the rounds he demanded but should he stop him it will look impressive as Guinn has never been stopped.

Expect Guinn to quit around the 6th when everyone is getting bored to death. Perfect.

I will ne surprised if Whyte does stop him. He fought this year and was lighter than when he faced Adamek a couple of years ago so should be in relatively good shape. He also does throw punches back and isnt a negative fighter.

Just read the Guinn fight is off over money.

His new opponent is Brian Minto. I listened to a podcast where Whyte said he phoned up Guinn to ask why he pulled out and he said he wasn't fit, he'd have to quit after two rounds so it would be a waste of time.

If you read through Whytes twitter, Minto was offered this fight already and turned it down because the money wasnt worth the risk. He actually told Whyte this on twitter after Whyte asked him why he wouldnt accept. Hearn must have had to dig a bit deeper

Not a bad match really as Minto always makes people work for however long he lasts but still no where near ideal as a warm up opponent for a big man like Joshua.

Is it an even better match than Guinn? I ask that because I could see Minto beating this Guinn fairly comfortably now.

Minto is total crap and if Joshua was fighting him you would be moaning.

Minto isnt crap. Hes not a world beater but hes not crap. Ok hes not ideal for a man of Whytes size and amount of bouts but Minto at least always tries and fights. He just took highly rated Joseph Parker to the 7th. If he was that crap he wouldnt have got past the 1st. Out of Parkers 15 fights only one fighter has lasted longer.

Joshua wouldnt have had to wait for a week before his fight for an opponent to be sorted. What you gonna do when Hearn is pissing you around? Hearn doesnt want Whyte prepared is the issue here. There will be some regret and alot of dry swallowing from Hearn now especially since Whyte has hooked up with Banks.
