2. No, Eddie isn't a manager, he's a promoter. Dillian Whyte is self managed. He doesn't have a contract with Matchroom and he works with Eddie on a fight by fight basis. Last year Eddie wanted him to fight AJ at Wembley, Dillian turned the fight down because he didn't like the rematch clause and there was nothing Eddie could do about it except cancel the show.
3. Yes, Whyte can hire anybody and he can work with any promoter he wants to work with. He keeps working with Eddie because, most of the time, Eddie can get him the fights he wants.Last edited by kafkod; 09-29-2020, 09:05 PM.

Originally posted by kafkod View PostPovetkin was down twice in the 4th round against Whyte. I don't know about "one in a million", but anybody who says they weren't shocked and amazed when Povetkin suddenly knocked him spark out with that uppercut in the 5th is lying.
