    Why did Whyte start the fight as a SOUTHPAW?!

    This made no sense to me at all, the best chance you have in the fight is at the early rounds, so why on earth would you do the whole first round as a southpaw when you’ve never fought like that ever before?

    It was a complete waste of a round for Whyte and it got Tyson settled into the fight.

    Awful awful tactics

    Because he and his team were out of their depth and didn’t really know how to approach the fight.

    The worst thing you can do against Tyson Fury is let him get into any kind of rhythm, I think once he’s that rhythm he’s pretty much impossible to beat…

    I guess they thought they could disrupt him from round one and try to not let him get into a rhythm that way… but in reality it’s probably better to actually use your best tools and make a strong start.

    wouldn’t have mattered either way, they’re leagues apart

    They could fight 100 times and Fury would beat him 100 times.

      He didn’t do much as an orthodox either. When a fighters a bum like Whyte he does whatever he can to get an edge.

        Because he's an idiot who can't box and has no idea what he's doing.
