    Joshua beat the **** out of Pulev so how come he struggled with Usyk so much.

    Not sure. Maybe he wasn't motivated. Maybe he thought it would be an easy win and didn't train.

    Whyte was probably done after getting sparked for the second time. But we weren’t going to find out against a Povetkin that looked like he could barely stand.

    Current Helenius seems back to his early career form and gets the KO.

    Styles make fights.

    Plus Whyte makes too many mistakes still

    Crosses his feet
    Squares up too much

    Watch Whyte's feet in the last 15 seconds before he got KOd.

    He should have corrected that mistakes years ago or through sparring....

    Do people actually think all tall fighters are the same?

    Agree Helenius lost a lot of confidence after Duhaupus,

    Would easily favour him to KO Washington now and Whyte would be a 50/50

    First Kownacki fight he still looked pretty low in confidence but in 2nd he was an absolutely different guy

    I think he needs another good win to press his case as a mando. Might have to be the Bryan/Dubois winner.
