    No, he was fighting an american level fighter. Tonights Whyte would beat Purrity.

    lol you Joshua haters are hilarious. Most fighters would not take those hits Joshua was dealing Whyte. We found out Whyte has a great chin because I'm pretty damn sure most of those shots that wobbled him throughout the fight would of taken out most HWs including Wlad, Haye & Fury. All three of those guys have been knocked down with weaker shots than that. I totally believe Wilder would of been knocked out too a lot early if hit by those shots. Now if you get faster opponent in there perhaps they have a shot as if anything Joshua needs to work on head movement. We learned he can take a punch and we learned he can adapt in a fight, can keep his composure and not do anything really reckless. This was seriously one of the best HW fights I've seen in awhile, the fact people are giving him **** is hilarious...Finallly, Finally we have an exciting heavyweight, we should be thankful.

    Usually it's not but some head and upper body movement is useful because while 6'6" is tall with huge guys like Tyson Fury out there it might be worth adding some head movement. Wlad would have done a lot better had he had any kind of head movement to help him get in range.

    You drop Joshua below Parker after he just beat a guy way better than anyone Parkers beaten? Strange logic. There's no guarantee Parker would get past Whyte.

    Getting wobbled for 2 seconds when a 6-5 250 lb. guy hits you on the chin means you have a "glass jaw?"

    Man, there are some dumb-ass adolescents here.

    - A better finisher would have stopped Joshua in round 2.

    - Someone with more power would have stopped him in round 2.

    - Whyte really doesn't have that much power. Euro level power tops.

    - Joshua will come unstuck against better opponents.

    As a Brit, I hate the hype train - I fcking loathe it. So much.
