    Got to be the BT Sport offering over what Sky has. Whyte should stop Chisora to get another chance to lose to AJ yawnnnnnn. David Price on the undercard who can surely avoid being sparked out for a change against a guy who's lost his last two.

    Warrington looks really overpriced against Frampton. He keeps proving doubters wrong and had the pressure of expectation from his home fans when he beat a good champion back in May. Frampton in his last fight looked very sluggish like his best days might have gone and will struggle not having the majority of the crowd on his side like he is used to.

    You talk sense but I’ve still plumped for Whyte v Chisora hoping for a good slugfest.

    Just call me Mystic Dreamy. Picked BT Sport as the one to watch and wasn't disappointed. Warrington should get Cruz in Vegas now after doing a job on Frampton. Carl isn't as good as he used to be but take nothing away from Josh. Frampton hasn't been the same since leaving McGuigan. Bit like when Naz left Ingle.

    Warrington boxed really well I got it wrong. Like you say Frampton has gone backwards.

    Caught up with some of Whyte/Chisora and AJ if he's not careful is going to have people go off him from being associated with Eddie Hearn. A spiteful man who purposely double booked last night to make fans have to choose between two PPV offerings. AJ was getting booed by fans who are probably sick of it all now. We want him facing Wilder and it needs to happen next. If not it's got to be Fury and then Wilder. We don't need to see a rematch against someone he sparked out three years ago.

    Joseph Parker wants another shot at Whyte so have that in April on the undercard of AJ/Wilder and then Hearn for once can talk up a genuine PPV quality card. Frank Warren has mentioned putting a Fury/Wilder rematch on the same night as AJ's next fight. With that likely taking place in America again if it happens, it would be some night for fans to watch AJ around 10 pm and Fury/Wilder around 3-4 am on the east coast.

    I don’t think that’d ever happen due to both needing the media there, my guess is Warren was probably winding Hearn up.

    Agree with everything else. Joshua & Hearn thought everyone would come running to them for a pay day & tried to offer poor terms. Even a couple of weeks before Wilder - Fury he kept saying it’d never happen. Unfortunately for him they had a brilliant fight that everyone would love to see again so they’re no longer in control

    Fair play to Warrington, he’s had an unbelievable year, British fighter of the year by a mile. I remember watching him struggle & in my opinion lose to Kiko Martinez not so long back & I didn’t think he’d be able to defeat Selby or Frampton. With his hand speed, chin & stamina he’s a nightmare for anyone. Obviously different stances but he’s got a bit of Calzaghe about him with the work rate, finding a way to win & the sad in the corner.

    Gutted for Frampton, his interview after was brilliant, no excuses, complete honesty & looked close to tears, would imagine he’ll retire now & if he does he’s had a great career, two weight world champion, headlined Windsor Park, Madison Square Garden, Vegas. Stuff of dreams.
