“Joshua has lost all his aggression and killer instincts,” Whyte said about his performance against Jermaine Franklin.

Whyte – who lost to Joshua in 2016 – said: “Every time Franklin shaped up like he was going to hit him, he hesitated. I’ve never seen him like that, he’s a bit shell-shocked.”

Joshua will be hoping to become a 3 time world champion in the months to come, however this can only happen if he puts his mind to the sport of boxing.

Fury was speaking about going against Usyk recently, however the talks went down and the fight is no longer going to happen according to some sources.

Fury v Joshua could be back on the cards, however this could only happen if Fury agrees to give Joshua a chance at the WBC world title.

Will this fight happen?
