Ben Whittaker vs. Liam Cameron II | Sky Sports - 20 April 2025

[Glass Joe]

Want Cameron to smash him but got a feeling Whittaker will find some stamina powers and get a decision

[Oiky]

Cameron needs to force the fight, put it on whittaker from the word go

[SeanBrennan]

any highlights from the weigh in?

Itv was a ‘ceremonial weigh in'. Shalom likes these it seems

Gotcha thanks

[jameswilson]

Love the genius of the guy Tetteh asked to spread the ropes so he could get through.

He pulled the ropes apart the other side of a bracket so where Tetteh was there was sod all extra room to get through.

Just on yesterday’s weigh in it seemed very early? I’m sure insane updates on Instagram of the proper weigh in happening during the AM.

They are doing the official weighs in UFC style I.e. early in the morning so the fighters can get on with rehydration. The weigh ins with the crowd are ceremonial, the official weights from earlier are just read off a piece of paper.

Big Fraze getting back in the saddle has gone under the radar. Shouldn't take more than a round or two to see off Tetteh but it'll be interesting to see how he carries himself this week, the manner of his loss to Wardley must have taken a toll psychologically.

Not a difficult one to call but I'm still 100% on heavyweight predictions for over 20 years. I have now got a feeling David Allen might let me down against Fisher but I'm not changing my prediction having made it directly to him on here.

Yeah Shalom does those. I hate it cos it’s fake and also you need to see the shape they are really in on the scales it’s BS

[samwbr]

Eggington is some lad.

It’s possible we seen the best of Whittaker too. He’s a guy who truly believes his own hype. Lees a good guy who knows the game inside out but Whittaker bottled the last fight 100%. The big questions aren’t about his ability, more everything surrounding it. Be an interesting spectacle more than the main event I think..

I'm either going to be very right or very wrong. Really looking forward to it and wishing both participants the best. Hopefully the refs and the judges do their jobs properly.

Could be somewhere in the middle and be a real competitive fight with both men covered in glory aye we don’t want it ruined with any more controversy although it wouldn’t surprise me…

Well, I was right about Whittaker, but alas, there was controversy.

[Ruthless-RKO]

He didn’t spit then?

[Controversial]

He didn’t spit then?

It didn’t look like it to me, think just some spittle came out his mouth as he was shouting at the other team.

Sh1t reffing as per. Foster is dreadful.,

I agree with the decision to be fair. At the end of the barrage Liam wasn't in a position to defend himself.

Anyone think Liam looked really flat last night and in the week prior?

Looked pale and pasty and really disinterested and flat . Maybe all the shenanigans surrounding the fight got him , take nothing away from the actual win for Whittaker but he didn't look like the Cameron we saw last time out.

Hope he got a nice payday out of it all .

I'm no Shalom fan (or hater) but it was Warren and Cameron that blew up the 10 round/12 round thing (because they could) so hopefully that wasn't what affected him, contract blooper that could have been corrected quietly if they'd wanted to. they all knew it was meant to be a 10 rounder.

glad Cameron is in one piece and hope he can get some more paydays

I think the occasion got to him a bit, he looked a bit in awe of it all. I think his reaction to losing was like it was inevitable, he was happy with his winnings regardless what happened it seemed.

Ben and Andy Lee need to give their heads a wobble with all this “oh you don’t know what he’s been through this last 6 months” b0ll0cks

A bit of mild criticism from strangers on social media isn’t a terrible ordeal to be endured like they’re making out

'Mild'? It's been a hell of a lot worse than that.

Plenty of people live with real problems and tragedy in their lives, they can rightly claim to have been through tough times

A young handsome very talented very successful sportsman being subjected to a few internet knobs hurling abuse his way goes with the territory and is not something he should be moaning about. He’s been through fcuk all.

You are both right, I reckon. Being in the spotlight is tiring especially when it's new to you. His missus is locked up too, isn't she, so he's dealing with that and he can't be far removed from the stress that goes with being around criminality even if he's not active. On first listen he sounds like everything is water off a duck's back to him but you don't meet many people who a genuinely unflappable.

Plus, he's simply not on the same level or trajectory as the bloke he was fighting.

Liam needs to make sure he puts the requisite amount aside to pay his 25/26 tax properly and spend the rest on bricks and mortar.

Yes hopefully someone advises him re his winnings! I wonder what will happen with him now though, he’s 35 this year so he may well fade into obscurity.

Yeah, including me, but we're not talking about that, we're talking about Ben Whittaker's social media.
