Weve done a predictor at work.
Couple of quid in. Winner. In what Round. What time in the round.
Im the only person in my office that has gone for VK...2 mins 37 seconds of round 9.
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
Im the only one that picked him at all
I'd like to wish you luck but although I'd pick WK if I had to put money on it, I'm rooting for Joshua to win. I do like WK though, seems like a gentleman.
@Fretwired - Agree with your analysis. Whyte clipped Joshua with a left hook and hurt him, however Whyte hasn't shown much fire power since. If Klitschko can land one of his left hooks (which is an absolute weapon) or a right hand then Joshua is going to sleep I think.
I've no idea how Klitschko is going to look though. If he's gun shy with slow feet then Joshua will blitz him.
Will definitely be tuning in for the spectacle though!
It's a rare fight where i like both fighters, they both seem like genuine decent blokes and they are both big enough to put the other one away with one shot.
I'd like a late AJ win, so Klitschko goes out with his head up and Joshua can move on and cement himself as the world champ.
I'm not locked in here with you, you are locked in here with me.
Think an AJ win is on the cards, he is great for the sport, young and fighting regularly. You can dismiss the Whyte fight as that was a scrap and not a boxing match, AJ got drawn into it.
Klitschko likes to spoil and steal and in that respect I hope it isn`t a slow chess match.
As said above it is rare to like both fighters, both humble and respectful and is a fight I`m happy to give Sky Box office £20 for.
Mike Tyson ruined boxing in 1985 by being so bloody good.
I know that's the risks, but even so staying up to stupid o'clock to watch 2 mins for £20 is a bit of a let down.

Heart says Joshua, head says Klitschko.
I think it will depend on how well Joshua deals with somebody not freezing in front of him (but that is bloody understandable!) and fires back with the experience and ring craft that Klitschko has.
Also whether the Fury fight broke Klitschko at all. You can see a fighter age before your very eyes and I wonder if that happened with Wlad. I've read this week he had some heavy personal stuff at the time of the Fury bout too. Then again it could really have ignited his competitive edge which I think it has.
I'd recommend the Klitschko film for anyone who hasn't seen it. They've got a lot of shit over the years but it's a great story. They come across as really decent guys and great ambassadors for boxing.

I think you have to embrace the whole event with all the undercards really, I'm sure there will be some good fights even if the headline isn't one of them.
I was going to get it but we've got a gig now, on at 9-11 so I'm going to bloody miss it.
It's really difficult to work out how WK will fare having been out of the ring for 18 months. TF pretty much played WK at his own game of using his reach to prevent him from getting many punches in. AJ doesn't have the height issue on his hands, but for a Super Heavyweight AJ is pretty quick.
I think there's a chance both boxers will be uncomfortable at the prospect of the fight going the distance, AJ for his inexperience past the 7th and WK for his time out of the ring/age.
I can't predict the outcome, but I will predict the fight will be AJ's biggest toughest test to date in his career.
The only aspect to the fight which I am a bit disappointed by is the undercard isn't the most exciting. Should be a good one nonetheless though.
