Comments Thread For: Whyte on Win Over Franklin: I Would Have To Hang Them Up If I Lost

You did lose, fool.

You won by being the A-side in your home country

Boxers are moronic. If you are going to retire because you lose a fight you might as well give up now. You can lose a fight for any reason, even when you are boxing your best. You might even just put a poor performance in on that night. No wonder so many of them come back a few years later.

Worst one was that MMA guy? Khabib? He is going to regret that the rest of his life.

This should have been a draw.

What knockdown is he referring to? Franklin didn’t even go down! He is delusional!

I think Whyte knows he’s done, but will carry on for the AJ payday. Who knows, he might be able to get himself up for that fight and put in a better performance, but if he’s anywhere near as one paced as he was last night against AJ, then he’s getting flattened.

Credit to Franklin who looked the better fighter last night, would like to see him in with other fringe contenders.

Whyte is limited by his bio mechanics and lack of amateur pedigree.

He has huge, long and heavy arms that - whilst relatively fast - cannot attack in bunches in a nice and fluid way. So as such, he'll always be off balance. Someone like Andy Ruiz would be a total nightmare for him with his fast combos and heavy hands.

Franklin does not have super heavy hands otherwise he could have chinned Whyte last night.

I do think wyte lost that fight, he does constantly fight top fighters and contenders, more than of the the top 4 champions

He was talking about Jacobs getting robbed by Ryder

Very close fight, how was that a robbery? Jacobs ran out of gears.

[DClefthook]

When did Jacobs get robbed? Only robbery I remember is the gift decision he got when he mailed in the effort against Rosado. And please don’t tell me he was robbed against Canelo or GGG, because he wasn’t. He lost both of those fights.

Whyte is so mediocre, so overhyped by paid Eddie fanboys here, that he could lose at any time to any opponent.

This is always how I've assessed every Whyte fight going into it.

"Well, Whyte's in there with a functional person so it might not go his way".
