Ball
Hygovic
Whyte.... because i have couple bucks on him and was paying good- also I think if he can turn back the clock to like when he fought a young JP Whyte is a nightmare for a inexperienced fighter used to guys lying down. He can fight dirty - hit hard - wrestle - intimidate.
I'm not delusional though and losing weight and looking fit doesn't turn back the clock but hopefully its enough to drag the fight into the 2nd half as will be interesting to see how Itauma copes...especially if he wins he could be JP title opponent.

Bart, you've never been a big fan of Itauma. Even if he beats an old, shot Whyte, I also still think he needs to prove himself against an elite fighter. Here's hoping his number is up, and you win heaps of money with Whyte. I do think that if he wins big, I agree, JP is next up.

Ford, Ball, Hrgovic, Itauma.
I just hope Whyte is clean. I don't think it matters. It's a much needed step up for Itauma. Hopefully we see his chin tested and some questions answered.

It's not that I don't rate itauma but just waiting to see him step up. Hopefully Whyte gives him rounds. Chisora would but Del doesn't want or need that smoke.
At one stage they were saying itauma would beat Tysons youngest ever world champ record but I believe that has passed.
