    There’s actually a good point here,

    Matchbook and Sky deal is up for renewal next year and I really don’t see Sky putting as much investment into boxing with a new deal.

    AJ may have a couple of years left as PPV fighter. Whyte was never good enough to sustain a PPV career.

    Now add that with the fact that there is absolutely no PPV fighters on the horizon from Eddie’s stable, I think Sky will start to cut back on their budget for boxing.

    Well maybe Eddie will take his business to DAZN when it goes to the UK.

        In fact, I thought Whyte showed that he's a top fighter. He was dominant early against a very good fighter. Showed plenty.

        Unfortunately for him, Povetkin also showed that he can find a punch. And what a punch it was.

        People getting far too high on a single punch. It doesn't mean Whyte's a bum.
        It wasn’t just a punch though, Povetkin set that trap from the first round, and Whyte walked right into it, dropped his arms anticipating a body shot. Povetkin scouted it well, uppercuts are cancer to Whyte.

          Don't agree with Bob much but he's right on this one. Joshua is way overrated and as soon as he steps in with someone of note, he will get knocked on his a** again. I will say Pulev is not the guy to do it, I do believe Joshua will win that particular fight.

            That punch probably decks both Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua, superb punch mechanics 'But would Joshua and Fury both get up from that punch?'.

            I expect Fury to mock Whyte now, but he should really just stay quiet 'Because none of these guys at elite level are impregnable'.

              No, they stay at the level they were at. At the top of the heavyweight pecking order.

              But Dillian Shyte's standing definitely got worse.

                He was playing possum going down twice in the fourth?

                It's a great shot from a skilled fighter. And absolutely not a lucky punch. But let's not overdo it.

                Clean uppercuts from Heavyweights are cancer to anyone. And it was nothing like the Joshua fight - the uppercut then just finished him when he was already doing a silly dance from eating shots.

                  Haha no, I’m not saying the knockdowns were intentional lol. You can go in there with a plan and set a trap and still get caught yourself.
