    Who Do You Like In The Whyte vs Povetkin 2 Fight?

    Does Whyte repeat his performance in the first fight minus the last round or does Povetkin do the same thing he ultimately did in the first fight earlier &/or without taking as much of a beating?

    Personally I'm never a fan of a guy who got KO'd the first time around in a quick turnaround rematch. History shows you usually get stopped quicker the next time. That said I feel like Povetkin had the tougher go of it a couple months back & Whyte just got his lights turned off & didn't sustain as much damage overall. Plus as a older cat in a rough fight idk that a quick turnaround is all that great for Povetkin.

    I actually picked Povetkin in the 1st fight but thought I'd got it badly wrong until that fantastic punch. Based on Whytes performance up to that point I think I would pick him to reverse the decision in the rematch.

    But then the Russian has a feel for the timing of Whyte now. I'm looking forward to it.

      I was hyped as hell when Povetkin knocked him flat, but I do think that in the rematch Whyte'll fight more cautiously and grind out a decision win.

        I think Povetkin knocks him out again.

        Whyte just ain't that good.

          Fifty fifty fight really. I'll pick Whyte though just for fun. Maybe they'll have a trilogy if that happens.

            Tough call. I like Whyte but wasn't sure he'd win the first time.

            50-50 for me.

              Povetkin. Smarter fighter, and now Whyte is going to have that KO in his head.


              Plus, people are acting like Whyte was dominating every round prior to that. Until the KD's I think I had it pretty close on my card.
