    Not sure of that. Did he stretch Szpilka early? Molina? Arreola?

    Franklin is a high level gatekeeper and I like those guys. Would like to see him against Jalolov

    Franklin is showing enough to be added to Eddie's list of murderer's row he rattles off every interview. Joseph Parker level based on this, but more willing tbh.

    Joshua’s offense is so predictable. Jab, straight, hold n hit right uppercut.

    Wlad at least had more variety offensively and much better footwork, no way Franklin would have landed as many punches against him

    not great stuff, this. Joshua I'm sure will get the decision, and deserve to, but he's imo looked very mediocre.

    Yeah it shows that Joshua is more concerned with his image as a muscle bound monster. It's unfortunate that big muscles don't win fights.
    This sport is about the mental and without that you're done.

    AJ gets PTSD anytime he sees a fat stocky heavyweight infront of him; especially if they are his own age.

    Franklin just bulling forward with his head down
    Joshua’s too heavy to be anywhere near his best, he’s a 246lb fighter anything above that and AJ looks like a plodder

    The holding and clinching is getting ridiculous now.
