    If Whyte wins do you think he will pop back up?

    An aggressive Whyte can stop Povetkin early (I love Pov but thought he looked a shot fighter prior to his KO). Whyte for all his ‘maximum violence’ rhetoric has actually reinvented himself as a boxer and I think this gives Povetkin a better chance but I still see this as 70/30 for Whyte.

    Even though Sasha signed the contract, its more to do with a rematch clause for an eliminator imo

    That nonsense has to stop

    It could have stopped if Sasha didn't want to sign the contract.

    He signed the contract, knocked the man out and gets another payday to do the same thing again.

    It only seems to be a minority of his biggest detractors who are outraged by this fight.

    I don't get it. Why is he being wronged? He signed a contract with a rematch clause. That's on him. I like Pov and I hope he wins again but I don't see the injustice.

    I agree with you that it's not an injustice, but it's not really an easy payday. Fight ended definitively but Pov was taking punches and getting dropped. It wasn't easy.

    You realize there is one and only one reason someone would call a professional boxer with no competitive basketball experience a basketball player?

    Well I mean if you're gonna get paid millions, it's best to do it against a guy you've just knocked out cold.
