    Of course you do, because you hate Wilder with a burning passion.:lol:

    This isn't to discredit Povetkin's win, merely stating the obvious. Whyte is heavy handed, but against genuinely heavy handed fighters with solid chins, he's loses 9 times out of 10.

    You kidding me. If Whyte was a real champion, yeah he may deserved rematch. But this was a fight for mandatory spot.
    Did you even read the whole comment ?

    And no, Povetkin doesn`t need the rematch, he ain`t 20 year old, he is pushing 41. Rematch will be useless.

    Let Povetkin take his paycheck from a title fight with either Wilder or Joshua, he deserved. That match was for exactly that.

    He was a world champion even before Manny... with several wins over top ten opposition, Manny helped his Career and definitely made him harder to beat but to say he was nothing without Manny shows that you are not being rational. Povetkin is good probably top 5 in his era but he never was a champion for a reason he was levels below Klitschko and yes he probably would of beat Wilder before Wilder ran away...

    It was actually a beautiful shot. The way he dipped to his left to create the angle to land it was delicious.

    Lmao Whyte was no champion, this was a fight between two contenders.

    A great fight between two contenders.

    The rematch will of course be bigger than this, everyone wants it but you. Time to jump on board the Povetkin Express my friend.

    He wanted to sell another Joshua vs Whyte fight to the British public but that's all gone t1ts up. Even if (and that's a big if) Whyte manages to win the rematch the public will already have the opinion that he is a second rate fighter and there won't be much interest in a fight with Joshua.

    I love how everyone Dillian Whyte and his big fat mouth ran down are coming out to take their shots.

    That punch selection is drilled into him from the amateurs. Short, crisp and part of his arsenal. Most fighters could never throw like that.

    Pure old school techniqe.
