    Warren probably wants an opponent who can test Itauma's stamina, so he's chosen a solid opponent like Franklin, who I don't think will be knocked out in the first round like Whyte. Itauma by stoppage after the 6th round.

    Franklin lost his last fight too. It was a jaw-dropping bad decision.

    Franklin is though, but he doesn't offer much besides that. Hes the new Kevin Johnson.

    Agreed, but at the moment, this is exactly what Itauma needs, someone who can give him rounds.

    Enough of this nonsense. Itauma must fight Big Bang Zhang next.

    Would be surprised if Franklin can do anything noteworthy.

    I'm just wondering if Franklin can bother to get himself into decent shape aesthetically. He's a joke if he comes in looking like a walrus again, he's had plenty of notice.
