Long life for Whitaker.
Whittaker was looking shaky before the tumble i.e. saved him from defeat.
Cameron is a better fighter than Whitaker. This fight reminded me of when two years ago Stevie Spark was beating up undefeated showman Montana Love, and Love pushed Spark out of the ring in & got disqualified in what was a classic standing tank job.
As soon as someone punches back, it seems to be the end of Whittakers showboating. Welcome to reality!
Whittaker was beginning to look more and more like the fighter who no longer wanted to be in the ring, the fight was beginning to slip through his fingers. I hope he didn’t get hurt, of course, but at the same time I’m convinced that the fall saved him from defeat.
Skye Nicolson makes women’s boxing soooooo dullllll, and it doesn’t have to be.
Good win for Chris, the body shots gave him the victory. Chris needs to keep his hands up, a better opponent will capitalize on this.
Someone needs to call the police, because
Liam Cameron was robbed.
Everyone knows that Skye is Eddie Hearn’s goomah. I think Eddie needs a new side dish.
Cameron robbed, other guy just another poser with a protected record!
Eubank looks good (against no hopers) Has not got the bottle to step up in class!
Wardley a gladiator, Clark just another guy led to believe he is better than he is!
Whittaker is a long way off if he thinks he close to a title shot.
