    Looks like Caldwell has been replaced in the corner by Harold ‘the shadow’ Knight ahead of his rematch with Povetkin. Knight has already linked up in camp with Xavier Miller

    Caldwell was never a main stay anyway. He'd been in the Matchroom "bubble" previously and was available fairly last minute to be an extra pair of eyes - was never anything long term

    Too late in the day for Whyte, he should have stuck with tibbs and will go on to regret it even more.

    He'll beat the old post-covid Povetkin in the rematch, but he was always going to be B level anyway, really. Formidable, but a bit like Chisora (his proven level), not world champ level by any means

    Coldwell is clueless as a trainer, probably the worst in the country.

    Not content with attempting and failing to beat Pov at his old age!!

    Now he wants to prove a point against a fella who knocked his butt out, after he has been ill.

    Pov will take it and do the same, and that will be the end of that.
    Only a real fighter can get that mentality, and he does not have it, he is mentally weak beyond help, and whilst fighters like him continue and linger in the sport, it is off putting for potential true fans of the sport who have to watch and pay for sh**e fights...

    Pov is fighting? I thought he nearly died from covid.

    New low from hearn/shyte if true.

    Coldwell is a little slithery, slimey, sneaky, two faced, would sell his own mother for a pound note, hypocritical, eyebrow waxing, rat.

    Other than that, I don't mind the guy.

    The first was very entertaining and I'm looking forward to the rematch between two of top 5 HWs.

    Notice Whyte is mouthing off again through the Sky Sports medium. Saying he wants to smash Povetkin's face in and having a go at him for pulling out of the previous 2 dates (although I thought he'd only pulled out of 1 due to covid).

    Really hope the shot to pieces Pov chins him again. I thought the first knockout might have put some humility into him but clearly not.

    Whyte could have atlas, roach, steward and it wouldn't make a blind bit of difference, has done amazingly well financially and somehow has been made into a ppv star but he will never win a title from a champion he just isn't good enough he may pick up a vacant title but I feel he will retire long before AJ or fury.

    This is probably just a coincidence but he was looking really good up until the rivas fight but since then he has looked awful, I cant think why that might be........
