HahahahahahahahahahahahahaHahahahahahahahahahahahaha He got beat up, so bad. Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
In all seriousness though, fighters should be penalised for pushing opponent when they're about to go down.
No, they shouldn't. Farcical situations would arise from punitive treatment of an intuitive fighting reflex. I'll never understand why some are so bent on turning shirtless, gloved combat into a prissy exhibition of squeaky cleanliness.
Fury shoved him over out of sympathy and kindness. He could've allowed him to remain upright and then blasted him with his special attack move while he was in his discombobulated state and had he done so I can assure you Whyte's beloved pet dogs Zeus and Hades would've been pining for their master's return for at least another six-eight weeks.
It's not in the rules of boxing, to push someone with two hands outstretched. Pushing someone like that while they're out on their feet could kill them if they hit their head on the canvas
What can I tell you, man? If you want pro boxing to become an even bigger joke than the sanctioning bodies, promotional cold wars and crooked officiating are already making of it, g'head, lobby, call your congressman, whatever. Otherwise, quit being so wet.
There are rumours that Fury secretly trained to end the fight with a push. Whyte never knew what hit him.
Yeah, in fairness his ankle strength and ankle fitness was always the determining factor in this fight. A fully ankle fit Whyte destroys Fury.
Unfortunately I fear we'll never see a fully ankle fit Whyte again. He'd rule the division. His ankle was prime in the Joshua fight but got cracked then
Either way it was too late in time for Whyte to win that one after waiting forever begging the WBC for a title shot.
Whyte knew he was going into a ring with a caged wookie He couldn't win...even his punchers chance he knew was 0. Fury didn't get out of 2nd gear... Love nothing more than seeing powerhouses like AJ/Wlad/Whyte who can normally push anyone around get absolutely manhandled.
