Why was Whyte wearing a stab vest, I hate that , hear all that stuff about stereotyping people and then he comes out with a stab vest

Today was the day that Diamante became an essential part of a big fight evening for me.
A good MC is like a comfortable familiar sofa and he's great.

10-9 Pov
better workrate and more accurate and technical work.

Close first. Some nice jabs by Dillian but decent body work from Povetkin. Probably give it to Dillian just about.

Povetkin's looking slow in the first, but Whyte's being sensible in not testing him yet.

Pov looks old but I don't trust Whyte at all. He's always teetering on a loss.

Can't seriously split them in the opener, just feeling each other out

Can't make my mind up on this one.
Given Whyte has come in in some kind of shape, gotta favour him, probably by stoppage after 6...

Pov looks a bit shot in R2.

19-19

Another close round but again I’d favour Whyte who’s a little more accurate.

Povetkin is throwing a nice left hook to the body. Could be trying to lull Whyte into expecting and then throws it to the head.

That left to the body's really smart from Whyte this early. Pov's gonna start feeling those and he'll have to fight his temptation to lower his right and eat the hook.

They’re not low, the shorts are high.

Funny how Dillian is probably the only active heavyweight who throws a good amount of body shots and it’s his nickname. Maybe the other lads should be paying attention cos it’s working a treat.
