    I don't really know - Minto is pretty well-used. Is that really more impressive than stopping Perk (durable journeyman, stopped in less than half of his losses, and most of those stoppages were corner retirements) or even Csala?

    It definitely is more impressive when you also consider he did it with one hand.

    Honestly the eye test should be clear for all to see, they are not in the same league when it comes to punching power. Cornish is a light puncher, Whyte can bang with the best of them.

    We can all re-evaluate after this weekend. I'm convinced Whyte will put on a good showing win or lose, and I always felt Cornish was going to get sparked out early.

    Still no answers from the guys claiming Joshua is a charlatan and Whyte is going to knock him out?

    If Joshua wins easily does it mean Joshua is better than they thought he was?

    Is Whyte a bum lined up by Eddie or is he a genuine challenge

    Seen a few answers here but most seem to be from people who don't rate Whyte

    I've seen comparison between Frank Bruno and Audley Harrison and Joshua in here

    I've watched them both turn pro etc and watched Joshua now

    I think Joshua looks way more impressive myself

    Bruno never had any fluidity at all. And Harrison didn't have the power.

    Whyte can't even punch properly and has never fought anyone. He looks petrified to me but tries to give a goofy smile to hide it.

    AJ his power looks legit. He's Koing guys with ease. Whyte isn't exactly feather fisted but AJ would have taken Minto out in the 1st and Whytes punching technique looks awful so I think AJ's straights will get home first.

    That said he is very up right so a big left hook isn't out of the question. AJ needs rounds so if this went past 4 rounds it wouldn't be a bad thing for either of em.

    Toshua stops Whyte in the 3rd. After barely throwing a punch for the first 2 rounds. Just looking for that one shot, that will never come because he is too slow and small to get in range.

    David Price, Haye and Fury would have been down by now if hit with those punches by either fighter
