“He was overthinking in the fight, over analysing certain things, sometimes you have to just say ‘f*** it’ and throw something. I throw punches and miss them all the time, but I don’t care because you just have to let s*** go sometimes.”

Whyte last took on AJ in 2015, where the latter prevailed via a technical knockout in round seven.

Following on from his disappointment six years ago ‘The Body Snatcher’ has revealed he is more than ready for a long-awaited rematch, but it is up to Joshua to decide when he is ready.

He said: “It’s a bit mad what’s going on there, it’s his life, his camp… But he needs to make his decisions and see what he wants to do. He needs to sit down and have words with himself, he doesn’t really say much about anything, but sometimes it can cause even more confusion.”
