    Not many people give Whyte credit and think he is B standard in todays current heavyweight crop, where would you rank Whyte if he can stop the undefeated Browne?

    If he can't stop Browne? Or did you mean if he can stop Browne?

    If he beats Browne it's his best win so he will deserve credit but it also depends on how, If he struggles to a decision or gets a gift then he won't get much credit and wouldn't really deserve much.

    Whyte couldn't stop Dave Allen, Helenius.. Lewison retired, he also struggled with Chisora, in my opinion he lost to Chisora.

    I think people don't give Whyte credit because it's hard to give credit for those performances against those opponents.

    Browne by violent KO. Maybe even KO 1 or 2.

    I was a believer in Browne when he rolled Chaggy, for a guy who made his pro debut and never boxed until I think 31?32?

    I think he has a very good punchers chance here. But I'd lean more towards Whyte

    It's going to be a fun fight whilst it lasts.

    Not really a fan of either fighter, Whyte is overated by the AJ diehards.

    Hoping Browne pulls it out.

    Don't care who wins, just fight like they mean it for the sake of the heavyweight divisions rise from the ashes of a 147 pound narcissist shadow.

    I think Browne wins. The winner becomes a top 10 HW for sure. Which speaks volumes about the division

    I think Whyte edges it, maybe even slightly controversial.
    If he wins, he soldifies his top 10 claim

    Hate to break the news here but Browne hasn't fought any meaningful fight in 2 years and that was too overweight Chaegav and he was on PEDs. ( Also dropped )

    This isn't Whyte best win but its only fight since Joshua he's going to have a full camp . Whyte on a six fight win streak, Browne is on a one fight win streak against guy coming off the street.

    The fight doesn't rank him any higher or lower. He's a top ten guy now and should be around 6/7 .

    I think it will be a good fight . Whyte shouldn't lose more than 4 rounds...possible stoppage late.

    Unless Whyte has improved and/or Browne has slipped this should be a Browne stoppage imho but whoever wins will have confirmed themselves as a fringe top 10 operator in my eyes

    Hoping Browne wins, but suspect Whyte gets a decision.

    I would have favoured Whyte more strongly but he looked awful last time out against Helenius, he was hurt and eating relatively clean shots in the first few rounds ... and Browne punches harder than that.

    Browne smashes Whyte. The only reason why you are talking up Whyte is because he gave AJ fits from a feather fisted left hook.

    I'm expecting a Whyte win here. Probably a decision but I wouldn't rule out a late tko. The Browne that fought Chagaev would be a favourite, but age, inactivity and presumably no more peds mean that I'm expecting the return of the Browne that faced Rudenko.

    If I'm right I'll rank Whyte 6th. His resume will be the same as Pulev's, so I'll put him one place above because his wins are more recent.

    The thread isn't about Joshua did the guy screw your G friend ? Do you have posters of him on your wall? Can you talk about anything on here without including Joshua like the other imbecile? o_O
