Channel 5 got boxing on as well. But seems tame after the Katie Taylor fight.
Good fight there thought Taylor edged it. Looks like she has a little Hasim Rahman action on her noggin
Persoon missed with a lot of her punches were Taylor landed the cleaner shots.
3 clear rounds for Persoon 2 for Taylor the rest I thought were toss upish so all the scores were ok I thought, would have liked a draw cause I woldn't mind seeing that a 3rd go round really fun fight.
Persoon accepts she lost and says she did not have the power to get the respect from Katie.Quote:

My mate has just messaged me and said Persoon has been paid off :lolololol:
Spare no expense on the light show Eddie. Ya know some of that could have helped nab Canelo a live body ;D.
Anyone else needing to refresh every 5,6 minutes

Whyte wins first round with better variety of punches particularly the jab.
1-0 Povetkin.
These are close round but liking Whytes jabs and body shots.
2 nil Whyte
1-1.
Unless Whyte collapse like he did at the end of the parker fight he should have this pretty easy, povetkin is old and slow and Whyte is getting the better of things here.
2-1 Povetkin.
Whyte is controlled and hurting Povetkin who is stumbling at times in the 3rd round.
3 nil Whyte
Whyte is sharp and efficient in the 4th to knock down Povetkin twice with nice left hooks.
Amazing.... Great ko

Hell what a shot.
That came out of the blue. Povetkin knocks out Whyte cold in the 5th round!!!
This really de-rails Whyte’s plans on getting a title shot.
Gary Ritter would have let Whyte fight on.... Bad stoppage :S
Povetkin really has slowed and lost a lot of accuracy though, he's pretty much done, obviously still got a great punch.
Just a bit. Lethal left uppercut from Povetkin.Quote:

He was old manned, down and out 2 minutes earlier, it was seemingly a matter of time when Whyte would have got him out of there. Probably into retirement.
Then boom! 1 punch changes 2 career trajectories in an instant!
Dam 40 year old Povetkin with the uppercut from hell, good on him to hang in there thought he was going out in another round or two
Gotta feel for Dillian there, didn't put a foot wrong until that uppercut.
Brilliant shot from Pic but he looked far from good up until he landed that uppercut.
Ho
Lee
Shit
I bet Povetkin is looking like a good option for some fighters now.

You can't carry an old cagey and experienced veteran like Alexander Povetkin or you risk getting hurt and he did.
After the fight Povetkin's reaction was just "business as usual". He is old, but he is skilled and still has enough power and the killer instinct
Whyte was very comfortable he was hurting Povetkin at will ! down twice in the previous round 4 next round well disaster out of the blue a hell of a punch from nowhere.
Is Whyte finished no not at all he took very little punishment bare that one shot!.
Povetkin is still very dangerous that punch would have ko any HW Eddie had a face like a bulldog chewing a wasp that's why I love boxing anything can happen.🙂
The two knockdowns appeared to be flash ones. Surprised that Povetkin got up so quickly and didn't take time.
Then that uppercut that Whyte didnt see on right side of jaw.
More Whyte Jab jab jab then move in rematch.
Fury will be relieved as no more talk of a Whyte vs Fury
POvetkin was in close and got caught twice with the short left hook. Whyte didnt get the full force into either of those punches. Povetkin wasnt hurt.
But it pissed off POvetkin I think it woke him up. I had just said "that was a 10-7 round, he's way behind now, he needs to knock him out, sooner rather than later...."
Really one of the most beautiful one punch KOs I've ever seen. A thing of beauty. Sparked.
