    Thought after round 1 we had a great fight on our hands. Then after the knockdown I thought we were gona have one but Rivas just gassed.

    Rivas muscles zapped all his oxygen as the fight went on
    I predicted that and for once got it bang on

    Really can’t warm to Whyte and I want to. Just don’t rate him I’m afraid

    Great jab shown by Whyte.
    Turned it into a real weapon

    Think Whyte should take a soft one next before the title shot. These hard fights are putting miles on. Great for the fans though.

    Good performance and good win by Whyte. However, he's very sloppy at times, looks gassed in spurts and vulnerable around the whiskers. I give him no chance against the top guys.

    On the flip side he’s getting PPV dough for them. Parker, Chisora and Rivas now. That’s probably set his kids up for life now. Some brave moves but yeah now that he’s mandatory he should lay off the big fights.

    Maybe a tickover against a Hammer type opponent and then just wait until his mandatory shot gets called.

    Feck off Eddie

    No other promoter does these in ring interviews and takes away attention from the real stars

    Actually Frankie boy does at times too
    Needs to stop

    Improved loads but someone with good hand speed will catch him too often.

    Great fight. Whyte is a warrior. He’ll fight anyone. I love Paullie, spot on with everything he’s quality, I love it when he’s on. Never changed an opinion on someone so much I remember booing and shouting obscenities at him during the Hatton Lazcano undercard at the City of Manchester Stadium.

    Them cards are closer than I thought it would be. But who cares. I’ve never understood why Whyte isn’t respected more. He was one shot away from banging out golden boy with a dodgy shoulder, will fight anyone, is exciting, is improving and I think he’s real andsound myself.

    I think Whyte can beat Wilder. He easily has the power to hurt him but he can be hurt too. I can’t wait for that fight if it happens. Whyte will give Wilder hell at times.

    That was a real poor show
    Eddies DAZN experiment really hitting the UK market now as seen with what was on offer tonight
