Joshua - Whyte set, date TBC.

[Fenster]

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.

Hearn may be worried. His meal ticket may get beat. That would be so funny.

When Joshua and Whyte meet , I don't care who wins , the point is if Joshua banged out minto inside 1 round he would be garbage ( which I think he is by the way ). However he is a good opponent for Whyte ? its the usual nonsensical utter fucking double standard garbage that usually falls from the mouth of the kid.
I'm looking forward to the outcome of Wlad v fury because either way it is win win for me.
