    Don’t care who he fights, I’ll watch the highlights on YouTube the next day unless he fights, Fury, Joyce, Wilder, Hunter or Sanchez.

    AJ needs some confidence and the casuals need their hero so Wallin, Franklin, Whyte or McKean are all puppy food

    Nothing wrong with fighting lower caliber fighters every couple of months. But he won't. It will be Franklin and then 6 months sitting on the beach, playing volleyball with the other bodybuilders.

    It would be fine if it really was a “tune up”, but the guy takes a minimum of a 6 month break between fights. My feeling is he’s not that bothered about the sport anymore, he just doesn’t want to leave without another mega Saudi payday.

    Ignore him mate. He knows his stuff but spends 90% of his time harassing other users and accusing them of having other accounts. It reminds me of when I was a kid on Clash of Clans.

    I don't think a fight like Franklin is bad because he probably needs to regain confidence after the Usyk defeats and time to work with his new trainer. The issue is that it'll be PPV and the price will be around £27.95.

    Also people are being a bit hypocritical saying he should jump straight into the Whyte rematch because Franklin arguably beat Whyte, so isn't Franklin a tougher proposition than Whyte ?

    After the Whyte fight the amount of people saying that AJ would go nowhere near Franklin was silly!
    He can fight who ever he wants, I think a couple of easy fights is a must to be fair but at the same time, its not
    PPV worthy and its a joke that this will be PPV.

    Thanks mate, you're right. I do chuckle at being accused of having loads of accounts. I haven't even worked out how to log into this on my laptop yet! Have a good weekend

    You literally use this account to say the things you don't want to say on your other accounts, because you've been made a fool of too many times for your ego to handle, you can't seem to see the funny side of it and just have a laugh. This is why we've ended up in this exchange, because I called you out for moaning at others - not myself.

    The rest of your posts are just politically correct boring posts with no insight - just trying to look like a nice, boring bloke, so as to buffer the acidity from the rest of your posts for which this account was created, like I've just mentioned.

    The Matchroom FC crowd seem to stick together. Moan at every other user for being an "alt", yet never moan at you for having at least seven accounts. Your cover has been blown yet again - you even slipped up with one of your trademarks; "bore off". A large proportion of your posts are also having a go at @littlebrain which is also a dead giveaway, and sticking up for Matchroom and DAZN. You like to dish it out to other members but cannot hack it when it's stuck on you.

    Prior to me calling you out on your hypocrisy:

    If it’s a tune up / confidence booster then fair enough but don’t flog it as something different. Stick it on normal DAZN, admit it’s just a tune up, get the job done then fight someone else 3 months later. The old saying you can cover a turd in glitter but it’s still a turd comes to mind.

    This lad does appear to take great pleasure in getting people banned who have realistic opinions on a wide range of boxing issues.

    Bizarre people.
