Provetkin didnt look himself, he looked all but shot in the previous fight tho

would the covid have affected him, i dunno, ive had it and a week of feeling a bit tired and all was fine (i wasnt fighting at the top level a few weeks after tho mind you)

and it wasnt that long ago provetkin fought michael hunter and i thought he won fairly clearly, hunter got away with murder

so my conclusion is, Provetkin is on the slide and Whyte is a top end Heavyweight and it is showed
