Comments Thread For: Boxxer extend offer to Liam Cameron for Ben Whittaker rematch

[Mick Higgs]

Nice to hear that my favourite venue (The RAH's) back in use.

[Butt stuff]

No. The reason most people are supporting Cameron, is because they are biased and hate Whittakers show off personality. I'm neutral. But i know people do not like the showing off, this is a fact as you only need to see comments on social media in his previous fights, people clown him for it and people write can't wait till he gets found out. So now for all of you this was the the time to jump on him as that is what you were waiting for any little thing to call him a fraud or "found out".

I would get these opinions if he was getting schooled or he was KOd. I watched the replay again Whitaker won 3 rounds and Cameron won the last 2. But because it was the first time you saw him getting caught with more punches like Rd 4/5 you were all ready to jump on it as "he's been found out". Again Cameron also had a lot of rabbit punching. A lot of peoples hate for Whittaker blinds them from what actually happened.

Let's wait till the rematch and then come back, i'll pick Whittaker to win i know most others are picking Cameron.

It was a big deal because, for the first time, Whittaker’s style wasn’t effective in this fight. He picked up early rounds with his advantages in speed and athleticism. But then Cameron felt started to get his timing down and put it on him.

Whittaker was tiring, his punches weren’t affecting Cameron and he was being moved around the ring by Cameron’s punches. It’s easy to see the fights momentum had changed and Ben was in for a very hard night until the whole fiasco happened.

That said, I expect Whittaker to come into the rematch very well prepared. Let’s just see if he has the ability to execute a better gameplan.

Whitaker is an entertaining showboater, I have no problem with that. It's the fact that he (seemingly) quit when the going got rough that I think is rubbing people the wrong way.

Did he quit? Only Whitaker knows for sure. But the fight isn't finished, and got scored a technical draw. Whitaker HAS to remove doubt.

You're not neutral. Everybody saw what happened that night except you. Youre accusing everybody else of skewing the facts because they hate Whitaker. That's not neutral, that's denial type of behavior.

It's not an attack or anything man. But for real, you might want to reassess what you think you know about boxing, and try to learn why people are saying what we r saying.

Like i said go look at comments pre Cameron fight. People were all ready hating him for showboating so ready for any little thing to jump on.

I'll be honest, I loathe Whittaker. To reiterate, when he was 'showboating' he was doing it against very low level opponents who'd been brought in to make him look good. Basically, he was humiliating his own hired guys. I said after Cameron he had 3 choices, of which 2 were honourable. 1 Call it a day & find another way of making a living (2) Completely change your team & start actually trying to learn how to box or (3) carry on trying to screw money out of people who DKSAB. Sadly, he has chosen the dishonourable option 3.

Whittaker will be at him convincely in the rematch. As an above poster said it's not like Cameron was schooling him. Whittaker won the first 3 so was ahead in the fight. They fell through the ropes and that was it. You really shouldn't continue a fight after falling through the ropes. That's for both fighters. The hate for Whittaker is because he's flash. Naz had the same hatred 25 years ago and it didn't stop him becoming a great. Naz also was the wrong colour for your average white layabout English racist. Whittaker needs to take this rematch in order to shut his haters up. Tweek it a bit and he'll beat Cameron easy enough.

That's cuz he acts like a jerk. So in ur reasoning, a jerk who nobody likes can only win. Cuz if he loses, it's because people are unfair. Guy, use critical thinking. That's really all I have to say on the issue.

I may have my faults, but I'm not your 'average white layabout English racist'. I loved Naseem. I loathe Whittaker. I totally understand that people like you are too thick & ignorant to understand the difference but Naseem actually didn't showboat against the men he was meant to beat, coming up. Look at his first 11 fights. Naseem was 19 & was put in with a highly respected European champion who had challenged for a world title. Everyone said Brendan Ingle was mad to throw the kid in to get brutalised by a hard, experienced champion. Naseem outboxed the champion for 11 rounds then, in the 12th, he showboated. He was making a statement that 'you have no idea how good I am, I'm already miles above this MoFo'. Whittaker showboats against his own hired help & as soon as he is given a quarter-decent opponent he capitulates. Of course he does. The comparison with Naseem is, like you, moronic.
