    Yeah..AJ v Whyte is an easy win for Joshue but AJ needs a confidence booster after consecutive losses. It makes sense even if Whyte is shot to shyte. Let's face it this was always the plan.

    I guess Xmas came early for Whyte tonight . I had Franklin edging it but it’s a Hearn show so a draw would have been no surprise but 116-112 twice was a joke .

    115-113 Whyte

    The fact we scored so many rounds different as did alot of posters here with varied scorecards, just shows how debatable close this fight was. 115-113 either way is fair IMO but i enjoyed the fight and the last round was a memorable round.

    You named all of them right there though. Maybe (MAAAAAAYBE) stretch and add AJ and Wilder to the list. That sounds decent, except between retirements, fake retirements, absences, and other weight classes, they were never active at the same time, and even when paths COULD have crossed, they didn't. Between those 7 names, we got 4 meetings (not counting rematches). Two were boring, two were one-sided.

    This just hasn't been a good heavyweight era no matter how you slice it.

    I did. And I would have no argument with someone who scored it for Frannklin, since there were a ton of "what you like" rounds. 116-112, I may need to remind people, means a guy won by 2 measly rounds, but for some reason people perceive it as being super wide.

    Lol Usyk isn't a heavyweight he is a cruiser weight fighting at heavyweight. Fury is horrible, when your best wins are against Wilder and a old Wladimir Klitschko then we know you aren't good. Also Tyson Fury constantly throws slapping arm punches. Povetkin was steroid cheat who never looked good when he wasn't on the juice. So current heavyweights are horrible. The last great heavyweight we had was Lennox Lewis.

    Just asking how you managed to score this seeing you bailed out after a couple of rounds?

    I had Whyte edging it 115-113 but the fight was already in championship rounds when I switched over from the BT Sport card.

    I have a subscription to DAZN, and there's a pause option. I paused it, did the Ryder-Parker match, then came back and unpaused it. I only watched the rounds, I jumped over the corner breaks, and jumped to the decision.

    It's a good thing Captain Ahab wasn't in the house, he'd have won at ringside via double harpooning.:sisi1
