Not a classic but well deserved from Whyte he worked a lot harder and earned it as opposed to Lewison who tried to steal it
I wasn't impressed at all to be honest mate. He done a well the first couple of rounds, tucking up and letting Lewison blow off some steam but after that he could of done a lot more. Lewison was so inactive that whyte could of put it on him more and pushed for a stoppage a lot earlier. There was nothing in that performance that makes me want to watch another one of his fights

I hope you're right mate, could be Hearn's poker-face though, best salesman on earth :OhYes:

See I'm not convinced Whyte will make it to European level I think he's a solid domestic level fighter who was in with a tough,dangerous but limited opponent and he only lost the 1st round on my card,I was impressed with his bodywork although his headshots were struggling to land,if it was Joshua pre world title then I might have been underwhelmed but for Whyte I thought it was a good showing

Relikh looks at ease, not overawed. It's a good sign (for him). Does he really belong at this class though?

How do you see a Whyte fight going against Chisora or Price???

Whyte takes Price out in the first round and aginst Chisora it's a close decision but he wins.

Among hardcore fans I think Burns may be underrated if anything.

yeah I agree with you that his bodywork is impressive mate but everything else seems to me as mediocre. We are on the same page mate thinking that he won't get past European level

What a classless bunch this crowd are. Booing boxers after last weeks events is a disgrace. Shouts of "up the Ra" and booing the ref because he's from England. Embarrassing.
