    I will say this in every Povetkin vs Whyte 2 thread.

    I really hope Povetkin wins this fight because NOBODY should get an immediate rematch after getting KO'd ice cold in an eliminator. Whyte was eliminated.

    For Povetkin to move on he must win twice, for Whyte only once. Even if he was brutally KO'd first, and then scrapes by in a decision. This was an eliminator, someone was eliminated, move on.

    It is just wrong.

    I agree 100 percent. Povetkin iced him. Not even a dubious decision or a close fight. An elimination fight that left no doubt and Whyte gets an immediate rematch. Grossly unfair.

    cos fight was for Whyte.
    Whyte isn't going to beat A.J or Fury. Managers thinks that he might beat Povetkin, therefore contracted Povetkin to fight with Whyte.

    A rematch clause for a n eliminator is an absolute joke

    And they never advertised that either

    Fight week it was sold as an eliminator....

    Terrible practice by Matchroom here
