The Whyte fight exposed AJ a bit for me, got all the punching power in the world but was pretty damn upright and static when someone hit him back. Needs to be better than that against better opponents.

He's taken this fight as it's a soft route to a world title belt, seriously don't expect him to lose but lets not start booking fights with Wilder, Fury and Haye just yet.

I think it's a bit harsh to judge him on that fight. Yes he didn't look great and he nearly got caught out but that fight was personal and he fought a completely different fight to the one he would've usually fought.
 
Both fighters only ever gone past round 3 once

How anyone backs a martin decision I don't know!

I'm a total noob with boxing, but I've sat through so many fights where the favourite has been a KO in round 1-2, but in actual fact you end up with a stalemate for 5-6 rounds, then they both get knackered and it ends up on points :p
