    Disappointed in Whyte. Fury was favourite for a reason but I expected Whyte to walk through fire to try to get to him and he never did it.

    Easier said than done I suppose.
    Easier said than done indeed. When you get hit any time you try to get into range, it soon deters fighters and makes them hesitant

    That’s why pretty much any fighter that faced Mayweather used to have their work rate cut in half, Doesn’t matter how hard he hit or not. All you have to do is make your opponent second-guess themself for a split second, because elite level boxing works in split seconds.

    That’s basically what happens when there is a difference in levels

        Very slow burner of a fight. But Tyson was breaking him down and just waiting on that uppercut. Smart fight.

          He makes me laugh, but there was nothing from him tonight... he didn't even try to initiate a bumming.

            I haven't seen it yet, just followed it on the thread. Utter dog turd under card and an inevitable main event and all on my wife's birthday, im in trouble for being on here keeping up with it as it is.

            I did not predict the KO though, I thought it would go the distance with a possibility of a late stoppage based on Whyte taking alot of pot shots and being out on his feet. I didn't expect a straight up LEGIT one punch KO

              I wouldn't bother watching it.

              Whyte really didn't take that much. But he was starting to duck into jabs. He didn't learn.

                I kind of felt it was necessary given that an 85-year-old Povetkin did the job on Whyte, too. Anything less than a stoppage would be bad.

                  This dumb**** thinks everybody except himself is a bum.

                    I do enjoy a chess match, but this was never really competitive. The reach was immense... it's weird, you look at Dillian in there, and the guy looks like a dwarf. But he's SIX FOOT FOUR.

                      I hope that's rubbish about Tyson retiring. He is becoming a bit of a snake oil salesman, and should at least fight Usyk.
