    Wardley was in a bit of trouble the previous round, a couple of punches away from a loss on the Foster scale.

    You biased crumpets that think that was a legit stoppage can GTFOOH. Howard Foster nothing more than Eddie’s ace in the hole. That was simply horrendous. Nothing less than shameful.

    I want this to go 12 rounds and Franklin win on points... would be karma for AJ throwing and spitting on Usyks belts.

    BBB of C should be investigating Howard Foster.

    Even opponents that got beat up badly by AJ like Pulev, there were opportunities. You just gotta be the bully in there and have responsible defense & see if he implodes, or tires and doubts surface. Franklin seems like a nice humble guy but in this fight he has to go for it, no one is gonna give it to you, you gotta earn your respect. As an American, I'm kind of rooting for him to see a great fight, but am not confident he has the mentality.

    AJ tends to always find some way to look bad in most of his fights. Wonder how he'll do it tonight.

    probably the paid referee & judges.

    Yes, I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw him dive in and wave it off

    This ain't going 12, trust me.

    I've got no dog in this fight, but I think AJ's going to stop Franklin very early here.

    If Foster was the ref in Usyk vs AJ 2, he would stop the fight in round 9 in favor of AJ.

    Ryder looks like Canelo, maybe they are related
