    How do you go from getting sparked out to headlining another PPV just a few months later

      Yeah actually i used to think it was still 45 but I remember seeing one of those 100+ fight journeymen say it’s important that they don’t get stopped because they want to fight every couple of weeks if possible and 28 days out out is not ideal.

          When a person gets KOd, it usually makes it easier to do it again. A quick KO doesn't leave a memory like a long beating, but damage is done. Whyte remembers getting right up, but I saw three guys stand him up. He's in denial and thinks a few extra days in the gym is all he needs. Personally, I think Sasha went down from some weak punches, like He was acting wounded. Scheming.

            Once you cross that threshold of legality you could make it $1 and these people still would not pay.
            If it’s free how can it be “Illegal” to stream it? Not everyone wants to walk around with a TV. I stream free TV on my ipad or iPhone. They are free. So how would that be illegal? Most people don’t have time to sit in front of a TV. You are at work? Then you can stream from app etc... I have BT sport app which I stream on my mobile.

              Russian commentary mentioned that Povetkin complained to his corner in the break before the last round, 'wtf, I am catching everything he throws'. So no scheming as Povetkin was frustrated.

                Yeah I like this. He got cracked with a single shot, didn’t take a sustained beating.

                Got to expect the same thing to happen in the rematch, but it will be a much anticipated bout either way.

                      I'll put the fight 60-40 in Whyte's favor.

                      I still think Povetkin is washed up at this age. Sure, he is talented and can punch but many things deteriorate with age including speed, your mental sharpnes, recovery time, etc. As I said, the quick turnaround time also favours Whyte.
