    If AJ can't beat Whyte his career is over. I'm fairly confident that he can.

    Joshua won't give him the opportunity to land a counter left hook this time, he keeps it long, again exposes Whyte's terrible footwork, picks him apart then KO's him with an uppercut again.

    Should there not be an uppercut in the options?

    A very dull points win for Joshua. I think the fight is a lot closer than people think though. Whyte's pretty much the same, but the bodybuilder, definitely isn't as explosive as he was, a few years ago.

    Really? You think Joshua should be favourite against Wilder after beating Whtye? If we're going off resumes then ok maybe but just look at the way Joshua is boxing atm. Hiding behind that reach won't work for 12 rounds against Wilder.

    We are talking about Wilder so it's possible Joshua can get the win but Wilder will try and get that right hand home before Joshua tries to get his. Wilder will land first and that will be game, set and match

    There needed to be a "who cares?" option in the poll. This fight is garbage. Whyte has looked terrible now for several years. If Joshua loses this fight, he should just retire.

    Joshua stated that Whyte hasn't really progressed since their first fight while Joshua stagnated, Joshua is a joke and I hope Whyte can pull off a surprise.

    Whyte is a shot fighter and is now so slow that Joshua will just need a round or two size him up. After that, Joshua moves in for an easy KO.

    The thing about Franklin to remember is that he fought Joshua the way Ruiz did. Joshua mostly threw one punch at a time because any time he opened up Franklin was answering with counter combos. And otherwise, Franklin did not nothing.

    This is a different fight because Joshua won't have to worry about counterpunching or combinations or really anything but a hail mary shot. And AJ's defense is solid.

    Straight out of his master, Fury's balloon knot, I might add.

    I think Joshua will go into this fight a lot more relaxed and be able to show more aggression because of it.

    Joshua by KO, it won't go 10 rounds, imo.

    Yes it's a bit of a shite fight, but if there's any chance Joshua can win a title again he needs to build his confidence.
