It amazes me that a ridiculously high amount of people expect DAZN to be rivalling Sky and BT after a couple of years, the channels a toddler

Result wise it will be quite interesting. Franklin is in shape and Joshua may well just gas out and get stopped if he’s gone too far with his bulking.

I read an interview with him where he’d given up red meat and had started eating fruit.
“I’ve started eating fruit” is like when Chris Arreola said that he’d started jogging. It’s mind boggling to me that a fully grown man doesn’t eat fruit, let alone a professional athlete

Apparently Sweets order in GTA San Andreas was inspired by Franklin’s daily breakfast.

Just watched the weigh-in. Still flabby with tits.DrDuke wrote: ↑01 Apr 2023, 12:46Mayby Franklin has never tasted any food outside of KFC until now.Cyclops wrote: ↑01 Apr 2023, 12:20I read an interview with him where he’d given up red meat and had started eating fruit.

Franklin is a strange choice of opponent. AJ doesn't look good against little fighters. You'd have thought they'd have got him a big stiff idiot to punch holes in.
I haven't watched it back but there was no finesse from either bloke in the Whyte fight from memory. Neither did anything but plod and throw punches. Joshua, despite losing and being a mentalist, actually boxed pretty well against Usyk both times and should beat Franklin up. I won't be tempted by those odds. Arguably getting the better of a shot chinny Dillian Whyte in a close points decision isn't impressive to me at this level.
