    Wardley didn't really stop Lartey either, that was one of the most obvious dives I've ever seen.

    Really hope Franklin turns up and doesn't spend a second of his time promoting this fight, that's exactly what that stinking rat Whyte deserves.

    Hahah yeah.
    When that fight got announced I really thought it was going to be a somewhat close fight because Lartey gave Dubois and Gorman a good fight

    Considering he was last seen sharing a ring with the world's heavyweight champeen, was there any other way than a big step down? He was never going to pick himself up from that uppercut and go straight to Usyk, Wilder, Joyce or even Oluwafemi.


    Anyway, card is reasonable enough fare for regular DeAdZoNe.

    Not saying Franklin beats Whyte but people will be surprised how close this will be as long as it lasts. Whyte isn't much better than Franklin. I actually think Franklin is the better boxer and should have a clear speed and cardio advantage. I give the power edge to Whyte though. The thing that worries me the most is that Franklin weighed 277 pounds for his last fight a couple of months ago so he added like more than 40 pounds since his last fight in 2019 which is concerning for his cardio and speed which were two big strengths of his in the past. I wouldn't put much money on it but at +750 the value is clearly on Franklin here.

    Gorman SHOULD beat Wardley handily if he prepares well enough and comes with the right mindset. People still pissing on him for the Dubois fight but if you're 22/23 and preparing for the biggest fight of your career and at the same time your newborn baby son is fighting for his life in the hospital you're not able to go out and fight. He should never have been in the ring with Dubois in the first place that night. I give him the benefit of the doubt. He has all the skills of the world to beat a bum like Wardley. Wardley was hurt badly by a shot Molina, lost the first round to Daniel Martz who battered him around the ring and never really has looked great until he stops his opponents or they diving to the canvas in fixed BS fights.

    Franklin is still mastering his craft and has the youth advantage. He also has decent footwork and ring IQ. I think he gives us a entertaining fight for about 7 or 8 rounds.

    Looking forward to this card actually. Though I'm more interested in the co-main.

    Franklin better come out and just throw uppercuts like The Sandman from Mike Tyson's punchout.

    I sent a tweet to Franklin on twitter about Whyte's vulnerability to uppercuts, it was followed by several people agreeing with me and giving other examples, with Franklin liking all the tweets. He's aware of Whyte's vulnerability to uppercuts.

    I'd like to see Franklin KO the loud-mouthed, arrogant Whyte.

    Is it just me or does Gorman look like a boxer played by Peter Kay?
