Wow what a seriously awful fight. When you're fighting Dave Allen's left overs it's time to have a word with your manager.
he ditched the Wallin fight to take the Fury fight. Had he not, Fury fans would be saying he ducked his chance to fight bum ass Wallin.
If he was so confident in winning, he would have taken the fight and beaten Wallin before fighting Fury, but didn't. He didn't want to risk his mandatory spot which to be fair, most fighters do, but yeah, it was a duck.
Whyte has never been more than a gatekeeper to begin with. Anybody who even gives a hint of ducking a bum like Wallin should retire.
Joey Dawejko picked up a 6 round decision over modern day warhorse Terrell Jamal Woods on 10/7. Dawejko improves to 23-10-4 13 KOs and Woods drops to 28-54-9 20 KOs, but don't worry, Woods is right back at it in fight #92 in 4 days against 7-0 Deontae Pettigrew on 10/15.
Mike Balogun was in action last weekend as well. The Trey Lippe Morrison conquerer improves to 20-0 after scoring a KO2 over 43 year old Marcus Oliveira. The 28-8-2 22 KO Oliveria once fought Juergen Braehmer for the WBA light heavy title (whatever thats worth).
Arslanbek Makhmudov and Simon Kean are now scheduled for separate fights on a Friday December 16th event in Montreal. https://boxrec.com/en/event/863477 I hope their promoter finds decent opponents for them.
Jalalov's upcoming fight has been cancelled. https://probellum.com/probellum-liverpool-ii-fight-card-update/ "Bakhodir Jalolov’s UK debut has been put on hold due to unforeseen circumstances with his opponent. The Olympic super heavyweight gold medallist was due to fight Argentinian Ariel Bracamonte at Probellum Liverpool II at the Eventim Olympia on Saturday night." Poor opponent anyway, they should have been able to find someone a bit better than Bracamonte. If it were a decent business, Makhmudov would be fighting Fury.
