      Was there any need for him to be 252 pounds? Surely a impressive unit to the eye, but was that mass functional mass? I think in certain area's of his training he may have slightly miscalculated 'Whyte seems to have gotten progressively less flexible these past few years, speed has also decreased'.

      Povetkin from the start of fight? Was right in the fight. I had to put the volume on mute, because the commentators where stating otherwise 'It was a competitive fight, but by no means was this a completely one sided fight from the start'. You could see the danger in Povetkin's work at all times etc

      Good fight, Whyte has a real old school mentality. No side stepping, if somebody beats him? He wants to go straight back in there with him 'In today's business climate in boxing, that is unusual' due to the stereotypes and stigma's that come with taking a loss etc

      Note: I do feel as if Whyte was trying abit to hard with intimidation tactics. The outfits, and the verbal threats of losing it and attacking people just before the fight 'Probably just frustration, with being in camp for so long'.
      Hopefully Dillian turns down the badman routine and just focuses on his boxing.

        By taking care of business, he means running like Anthony Joshua did in the rematch against Andy Ruiz

            These teams at universities who design these guys training programs have proven time and again that they really don't add anything to a boxers arsenal with plyonmetrics, weight training and all this running on a bendy treadmill nonsense. The boxing world already had its own scientists doing experiments for years and years in what was best for getting ready for a fight. They were called boxing trainers. Even if they can make you hit abit harder, what difference does it make? It's like being hit by a hammer or a baseball bat. Both take you out.Ones easier to deliver though. You're right about Whyte being stiffer, slower. I think these training methods make your reflexes slower as well. I love weights, but they make you much stiffer even than calisthenics, if they're heavy for sure.
            Yes I know what you are saying about fundamental routines and theories that have been develop in boxing over decades of empirical experience/evidence 'Same thing can be said about other sports such as track and field athletes' certain countries stick to their own fundamental routines.

            I am well rehearsed in sports science. Sports science over complicate things in most sports these days, it compartmentalizes everything etc 'It can sometimes be a business that wants to create more and more tasks for itself'.

            There is no doubt that Dillian Whyte is training hard, but is it functional training? I don't think it is. 'You would think his footwork and movement would be exceptional, due to his kick boxing background' but that has slowly regressed since his fight with Anthony Joshua 'Observed Whyte against Joshua his movement, and speed was superior to what we saw last night' etc

            Most of these gym based exercises you see him doing here, are not functional exercises 'I would not say they are a complete waste of time, but they will not be improving is performance optimally in my opinion' how many hours is he spending in that gym, laying down lifting weights? And I bet you these sports scientist have him attending a gym multiple times per day, doing tedious split routines 'Useless for athletes'.

              I don't think he has that ability.

              Might just be more of the same in fight two.

                He is too fat, lethargic and slow to replicate AJ's performance against Ruiz in the rematch.

                  There we go. Bring on the rematch. Whyte was handling him before that shot.

                    Concussions can take up to a year to recover from. I expect his punch resistance to be worse if they have a rematch this year.
