Comments Thread For: Frank Warren Backs Povetkin To Knock Whyte Out in Rematch

[PRINCEKOOL]

If Whyte comes in at anything over 252 pounds, I think he is going to have real tough time in winning 'Providing Povetkin has duplicated his condition from the first fight'.

I just don't think Whyte is functional at those super heavyweight weights, especially not over the distance

He doesn't possess a functional brain at whatever weight he is.

Warren always comes across as butt hurt.

He still thinks it is the 1990's....

The joy in Frank warren voice and face was priceless back in august, he seem relieved that Fury wouldn't have to fight Whyte after all. Even talking about dropping the belt, like WTF? Because of Dillian freaking Whyte?

Well Whyte did lay into him after he lost to pov.

I've seen some KO's that ended with a reversal in the rematch, usually a decision. Like Terry Norris getting flattened by Simon Brown and then winning a decision in the rematch or like fights on youtube where Michael Dokes stopped Mike Weather early and then they fought to a draw. But most of the time as we know, the winner of the first fight wins the second.

to be fair povetkin is 42 and was in hospital for a serious disease a couple of months ago. i hope youre right though, i got 500$ off a 10$ acca if sasha wins

For me, the series of fights that best encapsulates what you're talking about is the Stephane Oullett trilogy with Davey HDavey. Oullett outboxed him for much of the first fight until he got caught and stopped in the final rounds. In the rematch he was blown out early by Hilton. Only in the third fight did he outbox Hilton for the full fight to gain revenge.

For the most part, whoever wins the first fight usually wins the rematch in more dominant fashion.

i got white stopping an old povetkin in the first half of the fight
