    Default Ben Whittaker Quit.

    Overrated?

    Overpaid?

    How will he come back?

    i thought he did
    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    Ben was injured and could not continue. He will be back and have a rematch.

    He quit for me. We've all seen this situation umpteen times. On every occasion other than this one, the person being pushed over the ropes is powerless to stop it. Whittaker looked like he did everything he could to ensure it happened. Absolutely mental.

    I think it might be dawning on Ben that he's not quite ready for that pedestal he's been put on. Maybe he never will. The chinks in the armor started showing a couple of fights ago. He was winning, but labouring in company he should have been dismantling.

    Against Cameron, it started to get a little spicy. He saw a way out and he took it.

    He may well have been injured in that mad 'fall' but for me he didn't want to continue whatever. I think if it had continued he'd have been stopped such was the confidence of the other guy (forgotten name).

    He's hyped up and promoted himself and done well with that but at present it looks like he doesn't have the tools to back it all up.

    Do we really understand how difficult boxing is? He fell out of the ring, for God's sake. Even if I only hurt my big toe like Haye, I would not want to continue.
