    Clearly Pov wasn’t fit which made this a bit absurd, but Whyte did look better. Let’s see him against someone under 40.

    Covid effects everyone different tbf.

    I never had a single symptom and became stronger whilst I was positive.

    If he had faced Molina instead, I'm not sure he would have won. Truly can't remember the last time I saw a fighter that detoriated between fights before.

    Should have started a count when Povetkin stepped in the ring.

    Whyte calling for a trilogy because he's dissatisfied with the fact that it took him four rounds to defeat a Covid-ravaged weeble.

    Preferably someone who hasn't spent over a month in Hospital on a respirator too.

    Well he looked a shell of a fighter here and covid hospitalization played its part. The paycheck was too good to stay home.

    I thought the first fight was going one way then Povetkin knocked him spark out.

    That was around the same as the first fight just without the KO punch to turn it around. Covid? Maybe but more a case of a old man for me.

    I don't like what Whyte did at the end. When a guy is KO'd, leave him the f alone, don't try to son him like that. It's not sportsmanship. It's disrespectful.

    That's what being in your 40s after a hard career in kickboxing and boxing does to ya I guess.
