    Nothing out of the ordinary here, went as I predicted:
    "Whyte exercises discipline this time round and makes Chisora look a level below. Points or v late stoppage for Dillian."

    He's good at talking tough after the moment has passed

    That's why fighting fury is his worst nightmare. Both him and Eddie Hearn will get verbally destroyed in the build up and he has no charisma, no trash talk to come back with, he will just stand there and take it like a stiff robot, similar to how Wlad just sat in his chair and took all the abuse, pretending to be too nice to get involved.

    This was set up before the bell rang tonight
    Eddie made sure the Ref played a key part
    To be fair both guys were breaking the rules but the major differences was only Del Boy was getting pointed off by the ref.
    AJ don’t want NONE of Wilder and not even a word about Fury so this whole fight was a smoke screen to justify a rematch with Whyte

    Yeah I agree.

    Good shout on Tibbs, he has slowly but surely improved a rough, rugged and raw fighter in to a much better one, I'm not saying for a second Whyte is some sort of monster but he can punch and is learning the game.

    Whyte is gaining experience all the time and I liked the fact he didn't go all out in that first round, get over excited and blow himself out, he showed a lot of maturity and patience and got a spectacular KO win.

    I believe Whyte had 7 amateur fights, 7, that's amazing really, he is very inexperienced compared to lots of other fighters.

    Well Fury certainly got into Wladimir's head which won him a title. So yes psychology does play a big part in fact.

    He also lost 2 years of his career, when he should have been learning, to a ban because he was naïve and took an over the counter medicine.

    Everyone except Tyson Fury. :deal:

    Fury would simply get up from it, recover, and boss the rest of the round.

    Well done Dillian. Great year and he deserves a shot vs AJ or Wilder.

    Only the mentally weak and the vulnerable fall for that, and let’s not kid ourselves that it’s psychology eh, it’s smack talk and fight promotion and nothing more. End of the day fighters win titles in the ring and all the posturing in the world don’t help once the bell rings (unless your Chris Eubank Snr)

    Absolute nonsense. Psychology is a huge part of it, unless now all of a sudden you know more than a certain Mr D'Amato

    So you think Wladimir Klitschko is mentally weak?

    Fury knows how to get under a lot of people's skins and Joshua is easy prey.

    Even Big Baby Miller made him nearly have a panic attack.

    He should get his well earned shot at Wilder, he’s been WBC No1 for over a year and in the meantime he has 3 straight KOs against 2 former World Title holders and a Top 10 ranked fighter.
