Comments Thread For: Alexander Povetkin Gets Off The Floor, Brutally Blasts Dillian Whyte in Five

[LoadedWraps]

Whyte dropped Povetkin twice in the 4th. I don't think a garbage fighter could have done that. Alexander said that they studied Whyte and realized that he's susceptible to the uppercut. It was a beautiful example of discovering and exploiting the opponent's weakness. Dillian is still learning in that he has hardly any amateur experience. Things will be different in the rematch.

Elite level fighters in combat sports understand the importance of adjustments.

Agreed. We'll see if Whyte can elevate to that level in the rematch.

We are talking boxing. That is the reason he had such a small amateur career. He was found out. In the Ams theres "novice class" for guys with fewer than 10 bouts. Basically it's to avoid mismatches and let people learn.

He had 21 professional kickboxing matches, and fought MMA and he was fighting in the novice class. He put one of his opponents in a coma.

So yeah. **** him.

Definitely not a bright and shining moment for Whyte. I'm not going to hate on him for his sins, though. I just want to see how far he can go in the boxing game.

- -Getting Deyonce to duck him for years is his high point.

He's a sorta street thug done better than expected and over the moon with the $ he's made.

That's right! Wilder wants no parts of Whyte, because he knows Dillian can hand him an ass whipping and quickly dispel the myth.

Fury had a perfect pivot counter hook on Wlad that definitely hurt him. That was a dominant boxing clinic, completely outclassed Klitschko. AJ was damn near stopped, Fury didn't need to slug it out, he was in Wlad's head, AJ was playing checkers, Fury was playing chess.

I agree. Fury was better defence against Wlad. AJ was better in offence against Wlad. That's all I'm saying. Just as you can point to the fact that AJ was close to being stopped. I can point to the fact Fury never came close to stopping Wlad.
