    No he wasn't did you just make that up? Bakhtov was ranked much higher than Minto when Joshua fought him.

    Again, Minto is a 40 year old, 5,11 blown up cruiserweight who has 10 losses 5 by KO, what makes him twice as good Bakhtov, Gavern, Zumbano Love or Kevin Johnson?

    AJ will stop him in 3 doesn't need Einstein to see that. Whyte needs to work on a lot of things as he still doesn't seem sharp and compact where AJ is ready to step up and honestly he impresses me when he sniffs the opponent is hurt he doesn't mess around and he takes them out. That is what will make him one day a world champion but maybe one or two losses on the way.

    He didn't light it up that is for sure but lets see how his shoulder gets on. Leaning in on punches is a bad idea thoug he needs to sort that out.

    The way he talks you'd think he was a genuine prospect. He lacks everything it takes to be a contender other than power. I've watched every fight he's had since his comeback and he's looked **** in all of them. I'd even pick Cornish to get an easy UD over him.

    Letting a bloke at 5ft 11 routintely land slow overhand rights was embarrassing.

    He's going to get destroyed when he faces Joshua. Those who refuse to believe that do so because they dislike Joshua.

    I think Minto would have lasted longer than Cornish vs Joshua, maybe got into a second round at least.

    Is that Minto who has been fighting at CW and lost to Sportt as well?

    In any case, I look forward to these guys finally fighting so questions about both fighters can be answered.

    No not really.... Kevin Johnson> Minto. And you're forgetting that Minto took this fight on VERY short notice.

    I did not like the way Whyte ignored Minto's punches.

    Without hindsight I would have much rather seen him go a few more rounds but be hit less as he worried about defence as well as offence.

    As for the negativity if I saw it coming, I suspect most did:

    Aj is going to flatten whyte in similar fashion to cornish IMO.

    I kinda of agree with some of what DW is saying about AJ. He is a fraud in a way and sky along side fast car are promoting the hell out of it. Far play.

    I wanted DW to upset AJ, but on that performance I can't see it
