Back up in Manchester Frank Warren described Warrington’s win over Frampton as “the best title fight I have ever seen in a British ring”. “That was probably one of the best title fights I have ever seen in my time in boxing,” he added in an interview with BBC 5 live. “It was pulsating, from the first bell onwards. It was amazing, I don’t know how these guys did what they did. Josh proved what he is. We know Carl’s been a great champion and a great fighter. And a special mention to Sean, his [Warrington’s] dad, if he’s not trainer of the year, then who is?” Warrington remains unbeaten.
That left from Whyte really was something special. It wasn’t the most terrifying display from him but that thunderous finish will have sent shockwaves round the boxing world. He is obviously Joshua’s second choice opponent right now though, and that infuriates him. “The fans want me to fight Wilder,” says Joshua, obviously a bit annoyed at Whyte’s jibe. “But if we can’t get Wilder and and I knock Whyte out clean again I don’t want to hear people say that I took the easy option.”
