White-Franklin was a good scrap. I thought it was closer than 116-11/, but think the nod to White was reasonable. I don’t want to be a dick, but I have very little interest in Joshua-White. Joshua-Wilder is the interesting and obvious fight from the fans point of view. Wonder if we’ll get it?

This reminds me of Oscar v Felix Sturm, a fight that was intended to be an apetiser for BHop v Oscar. Sturm deserved at least a re-match but that wasn't part of the script. Franklyn was supposed to make Dillion Whyte look good to justify an AJ rematch. Eddie Hearn even promised the winner a multi-million dollar match against AJ. As with Sturm there will be no rematch. However we do get contracts that offer rematches like AJ v Andy Ruiz, Usyk and Whyte v Povletikin when there was no question about who the winner was. The alphabets are happy to support these arrangements and so it goes on. Franklyn has reinstated himself and enhanced his status, I am afraid he may have to be happy with that.
