    I cant help but get excited by Dillian Whyte vs Anthony Joshua

    Despite the fact this is two prospects and potentially a mismatch i just cant help it.

    Loving the clash of personalities with AJ cool as a cucumber and Dillian bringing that Brixton fire. Theres nothing quite like a heavyweight grudge match to get the juices flowing

    Hope Dillian doesnt end like Tony Bellew, all bark and no bite

    Bring on December

    They had a little confrontation after the weigh in, did you see it?

    Couldn't really make out what was going on or being said but i'm liking the building tension.

    And i'm not having anyone say this is Eddie Hearn manufactured beef. The topic of whyte clearly gets under AJ's skin, even though he tries to remain composed.

    I got tickets for ringside tomorrow, cannot wait to see these two in the flesh - more so AJ for those thudding shots.

      The fact this beef probably came from before Hearn had even heard of Whyte makes me think its genuine.

      Jealous mate. Hope Hibbert vs Ryan lives up to the first fight and ve good to see AJ and Whyte fighting.

        Me too, should be the fight of the night.

        What's your thoughts on Whyte? I've only seen two of his fights so far but he seems pretty heavy fisted but clumsy. Not sure he has anything to trouble Joshua.

          People are asking about Joshua's chin.

          We're going to find out about it in December.

            Too much hype for what in truth is a total farce. Dillian Whyte clearly is not very good at all. I'd not argue with anybody who said that Joseph Parker vs Kali Meehan was a much better fight.

            This fight is being billed into something it isn't all because of an amateur fight between the pair which counts for nothing. Joshua will splatter Whyte like he has all the rest.

            People are severely overrating Whyte especially on these YT comments I see. He as absolutely no chance at all unless Joshua is packing some fine bone China

              I think Whyte is decent but definitely a big underdog vs Joshua.

              I think the rivalry is genuine though and Im a sucker for Heavyweight grudge fights. Haye vs Chisora was a mismatch too but I was hyped for that one.

                Could definitely be like Chisora - Haye all over again. Hopefully it goes some rounds and AJ gets put under some pressure and gets into some hairy moments just like Haye did, but i'd be surprised to see anything but a brutal AJ knockout win sometime around the 4th...if it goes that long.

                Whyte is a bit too open for shots - and I don't see him being able to take many of AJ's bombs. Speed will be a big difference in this fight, just as it was in the Haye-Chisora bout.

                  Did you see how stiff and Whyte looked? He looks so rigid in every fight, I like Whyte but unfortunately Joshua is going to take him out. AJ is ridiculous, he looks like he's been genetically modified to make a perfect athlete.

                    There is genuine beef here, Whyte beats AJ in the ams, it bugs AJ for years to the point that he mentioned it even before the Sky hype. All good stuff.

                    I'm rooting Whyte but I know AJ takes him.
