    Exactly. Povetkins legs were unsteady from the start of the fight.

    Especially on his chin pal. The blueprint is there. I still can't get over the fact Fury beat 'the most avoided heavyweight in the world' (according to Hearn and co) without getting out of first gear, or taking anything of him.

    I agree mate. Hearn's a decent salesman but I think there was a few of us on here who were just not having it and could see how limited he was. I watched the fight again the other day, Whyte didn't make him work at all.

    Whyte has always been an uncoordinated mess of a fighter, from the amateurs and all the way through his pro career, he just looked all over the shop and sloppy, the difference now is the chin is cracked and the power is waning, especially since the Rivas PED bust.

    Wasserman Boxing has an event on the same weekend, but fortunately it is on Friday evening, November 25th. Harlem Eubank in the main event.

    Good weekend of boxing. Channel 5 show on Friday, DAZN and BT on Saturday, and finally a Sky show on Sunday.

    Absolutely pal. Chisora will be a better fight, because at least early on, he will at least try to put it on Fury (Whyte never.) But Chisora will get stopped easy enough too (after Fury gets some rounds under his belt.)

    You lot have a strange hatred of Whyte. Fury obviously didn't have it all his own way in that fight.

    When was the last time you saw a member of a fighter's camp throw something at the opponent mid fight?

    If Fury was under zero pressure from Whyte, why was Shane Fury throwing a cup of ice at Whyte's head?

    Shocking that wasn't addressed by the referee. Then again he seemed okay with taking signals from Fury to wave the fight off after the uppercut and push combo, so...

    Fury was winning wide against Whyte and the outcome was inevitable, but he certainly wasn't having it all his own way.

    Chisora will just be there to have a tickling contest and make some money in contrast.

    The referee didn't even see Fury doing that lol, watch the replay. He waves it off after Whyte stumbles into the ropes.
