    Dillian should have stuck with Tibbs.
    Changing a winning formula is never a good idea.

    Never a good idea but in all honesty he’s just been found out. It was coming sooner or later regardless of trainer.

    Wouldn't of made any difference, he's already been sussed a few times and got away with it, he was always going to get caught at some point, just that it's gone totally wrong in a gimme fight vs Povetkin rather than in a massive mega money fight vs Fury or Joshua, JUSTICE

    Wouldn’t have mattered if he had Angelo Dundee in the corner, just a perfect shot from Povetkin.

    I know i am an old timer but the heavyweight division is so poor now anyone half decent gets hyped to high heaven.White would not be in the top 10 in the 70`s no matter who trained him

    Tibbs didn't use a separate knife for the jam. Left bits of butter and crumbs in it. Case is scheduled for the Old Bailey in the autumn.

    Than its a very grave serious matter.Thanks for telling me.

    Although Whyte looks like the kind of fellow who eats a 25 inch baguette in one hand....and takes a seperate chomp of butter from the slab and pours jam seperately down his cakehole.

    Excuse the Obvious name drop but credit where it’s due, I was talking about this fight Friday morning with Adam Booth. He analysed and called the outcome to perfection. Even showed me how Povetkin would dip off the feinted jab to throw the left. Whyte’s terrible footwork does half the work for his opponent.

    Where’s a b level fighter, the end. If he’s American he would be Dominic Brazuele (spelling) matchroom have done a great job with him but he’s just not good enough for the top.

    Dominic Breazeale doesn't beat Joseph Parker, Dereck Chisora twice, Oscar Rivas, Robert Helenius and probably not even fat Lucas Browne. There's absolutely no way he drops Alexander Povetkin twice, either.

    The same people who are saying Dillian Whyte "got found out" are the same bunch who say that "in heavyweight boxing, one punch can end it all."

    Trolls generally have no consistency.

    The trainer makes naff all difference, especially when you are that experienced and at the level that Whyte is. The trainer isnt in the ring with you.

    Whyte was sloppy as usual, and instead of getting away with it in his previous fights. He finally paid the price.

    Trolls? Ffs lol.

    you point out contradictions and tell the truth on twitter so you are a “troll”, grow up.

    He went life and death with chisora, twice, and he really lost the first fight. Chisora was also past it.

    parker he wasn’t exactly great, plus parker is way overrated and is scared to throw a punch, Whyte barely survived the last round.

    lucas Browne? Really? Dave Allen beat him, plus he was also fat and shot.

    Rivas, he got dropped and failed a drugs test.

    he was shocking again against helenius, some even said he lost.

    Povetkin is absolutely shot, but he landed on whytes suspect chin and knocked him clean out.

    whyte has basically made a career out of landing a punch then getting knocked out by AJ.

    so the above are facts, the truth, does that make people who say them trolls or haters?

    Implying you know things without saying anything is a great way to cover a lack of anything of substance.

    You can conveniently slip in "and he lost the first fight", but it doesn't make it true. You can't take 2 minutes off from every round past the fifth and claim he done more to win.

    Joseph Parker is certainly overrated, but he beat him. My point is that Dominic Breazeale doesn't beat Joseph Parker, you haven't refuted that.

    Lucas Browne was fat and useless, yes, but my point stands as above. Dominic Breazeale is also utterly useless.

    So what if he got dropped? Alexander Povetkin got dropped twice last night and won via KO. Do you know how fights are scored? What relevance does that have? You're also absolutely clueless if you think failing an anti-doping test means anything at all. Do you think that was the only time Dillian Whyte has doped? Was he "clean" for the Alexander Povetkin bout because he did not fail a doping test? Was Alexander Povetkin clean because he passed anti-doping protocol? Do you also believe in Santa?

    You've completely missed the entire point. You've compared Dillian Whyte to Dominic Breazeale simply because you don't like Dillian Whyte. If you had any objectivity whatsoever, you'd clearly recognise that there is a gulf in quality between the two boxers.

    My point is that Dominic Breazeale hasn't even defeated anybody of note whatsoever, yet you are nitpicking and trying to find flaws in several credible Dillian Whyte wins.
