“Terrible, Terrible Performance”: Dillian Whyte Blasts Rival Anthony Joshua Following Jermaine Franklin Victory

Anthony Joshua’s recent bout against Jermaine Franklin was supposed to be a triumphant return to form for the former heavyweight champion. Having suffered consecutive defeats to Oleksandr Usyk, Joshua was keen to prove his worth in the ring once more. While he did emerge victorious, not everyone was impressed with his performance. In fact, one of his fiercest rivals, Dillian Whyte, had some cutting remarks to make about Joshua’s showing that night. 

As the dust settled after the much-anticipated fight between Joshua and his opponent, Whyte, who had a front-row seat, was approached by a curious interviewer seeking his opinion on Joshua’s performance. What ensued was nothing short of a verbal barrage, with Whyte not holding back in his assessment of Joshua’s abilities. However, amidst the storm of controversy, some experts saw a glimmer of hope for Joshua, who might use the critique as motivation to come back stronger.

Whyte’s remarks came after Joshua’s much-anticipated fight against Franklin, which ended in a unanimous decision in Joshua’s favor. While some fans and critics praised Joshua’s performance, Whyte was clearly unimpressed. He went on to criticize those who were heaping praise on Joshua, saying that the former heavyweight champion should have knocked out his opponent.
