    You’ve got to give Eddie Hearn credit here , he’s said all along no way would fights like Whyte v Wallin have been made without PPV on sky and it seems they still cant , he was bang on there !

    Ok, this is an intervention, put the drink down and go to bed, sleep it off Astro, you'll regret this in the morning.

    Fair enough. I think there is a big gap in levels between them...but still do think whyte will find a way to put up a decent fight tho. Levels between wallin and fury but wallin ended up giving him a fight.

    Whytes cagey...hes competetive...hes also around 260 lbs. I think he,ll take furys weight leaning on him much better than wilder did. I think furys new style came at a perfect time in his career...but there might be fights ahead made harder than they would have been with his old style. Plus he can take his eye off the ball. Would be a good keep busy fight for fury tho.

    Fair enough. Good keep busy fight for fury...still wont be totally surprised if whyte can make it interesting even tho i agree his footworks not good and his hands are quite slow etc. Will be interesting to see the new style of furys up against someone other than wilder tho tbh.

    Doubt it, DAZN isn't just boxing. It's a very minor part of what they offer out here in Japan. It might be causing DAZN UK some issues though.

    That's what I said about Whyte months ago in regard to his ppv numbers. While very good he needs a dance partner.

    They'll need to put "legs are looking shaky Adam" on Eddie's gravestone at this rate.

    Good. Edwards loafers have been too comfy for too long, I'm curious to see how he deals with a bit of adversity, If it helps brings about proper cards & matchmaking it can only be a good thing. I won't hold my breath though.

    Please not Ruiz. As a boxing fan I'll never forget the sight of him waddling to the ring to hand over his belts. That told us all we need to know about the guy.

    Yes Wallin is a easy fight for Whyte.

    Fury has history of turning down offers before to fight Whyte. What makes you confident that Fury will him now?

    When has Whyte ever had a easy routine victory against a half decent fighter ?

    Dave ****ing Allen pushed him to his limits and he was supping down irn brus in the dressing room before hand.
