    Whyte really was terrible tonight. No idea why he was trying to end up boxing Fury.

    He'd of had more success with a high guard, stiff jab doubling it up and just trying to walk Tyson down. Maybe he'd of got uppercutted earlier.

    Terrible performance from whyte, never landed a punch to the head that wasn't a jab no workrate at all and his chin really is that bad after all.

    So fury vs usyk is all that's left to decide the best then.

    Nothing against the guy but he was terrible tonight, think it was quite clear he had a cold about 5 days ago but he was bad.

    When he came out southpaw in round one I genuinely spat some of my cuppa out. I wonder whose genius idea that was, Miller or Scott?

    Hats off to Tyson tonight.
    Won every round and stopped Whyte.
    Can't ask for more than that

    Those people are just doing what they're paid to do by Matchroom FC.

    Fury made Whyte look barely British level out there.

    To be fair he was better as a southpaw, he took away the jab and didn't eat leather so much. Wasn't going to win that way but it showed some concerning signs for Fury should he brave the fight vs Usyk.

    That was his best round! I actually think it was a good idea...the only one he had all fight.

    Fury and his team had to hold in their laughter.

    Well Whyte had no problem fighting a half-dead Povetkin who could barely complete his ring walk so if he did have a cold no excuses. Anyway Whyte has always snorted and sniffed through his interviews disgustingly as if he has a permanent flu so I’m not even buying any claim that he was ill.

    I had a feeling Whyte was gonna pull off the upset but he was never in the race tonight

    I feel like tonight's fight has showed up just how much people buy into Matchrooms promotion and actually how good their ppv fighters are.
