Hopefully he will give a Whyte a chance to avenge his loss, if it will not happen this year then maybe next year. Povetkin maybe old but he proved to be a good fighter that should not be underestimated, a rematch makes good money, so maybe he can use that for his retirement.
If Povetkin needs a big money fight before his retirement he should fight Anthony Joshua, the first fight between them Whyte earned 4 million pound excluding the PPV revenue which is equally shared and Povetkin earned 3.5 million pound and it is a decent amount of money but considering the amount of money Anthony Joshua is able to make which is around $60 million in his rematch against Andy Ruiz and match up against him will be the perfect retirement Grin.

Povetkin in an interview said that he could end his career after the fight with Whyte.  In total, he won 36 out of 39 fights. This is a very good result.  But his age, of course, is over 40 years old.  
But, let's see, maybe he will change his mind. Smiley

By the way, the knockout in August was recognized as the best in 2020!

True, once the opponent give in for the chance there are possibility of a knockout. Basically this match should be taking in by Povetkin II because what happened in the last fight should be consider IMO, maybe this fight might just mark the downfall of Whyte in my honest view. But let wait to watch the match for a conviction.
Covid -19 makes a difference, everyone is affected. Despite losing the first game I think Whyte had a different motivation. I heard that he wants to be a mandatory challenger to WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury. If he wins, it will make it easier. Whyte's notes on the duel with Povetkin and the knockout in round 5 I think he was off guard, he feels almost done because he already knocked Povetkin twice. Henceforth I think if this continues then there will be an ambitious duel to avenge the defeat.
Whyte has been motivated ever since he lost to AJ years ago. He was chasing AJ for a rematch, however, Whyte become a tier B fighter while AJ becomes a champion. However, Whyte needs to win this match against whoever he chooses to fight if Povetkin is not going to be available at the end of the month obviously. Before talking about the big fights against Fury or AJ.

We want to see this but if this will not happen, might as well Whyte will look for another opponent, how about Whyte vs Wilder? I think this would be a great fight, Joshua vs Fury is already destined, if the price is right, maybe soon we will see some announcement.

Maybe, but as a fan we love to see a toe to toe fight and Whyte needs to avenge his loss in the first fight.. who knows if Fans will be satisfied and Whyte wins this fight, a Trilogy might happen. This guy (https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/569964) has a good KO percentage, he can win a KO in this one, but he needs to be careful not to make the same mistake.
I first noticed the name Dillian Whyte when he faced Anthony Joshua for the British Heavyweight belt and the promotion and hype was really entertaining and Joshua was able to knockout Whyte and after that fight he was able to win many fights until he faced Alexander Povetkin. I am expecting the same result like the first fight but Whyte have the knockout power, the question is who will be landing the knockout shot Grin.
That's what we have to find out, and in order to know, we have to watch this fight and see if Whyte can recover from his loss in the first fight. Both have power, it's just a matter of who's fighter has a great game plan to win, and if Whyte will not adjust, we might see the same result which would end this rivalry.

That's interesting to watch, unlike boxers who are just counting their points inside the ring. Toe-to-toe boxers are worth your money as you can really see the actual rumble happening. I hope we will really see knockout here, in either camp.

The thing is with Whyte is he always looks for the knock out, and usually finds himself in trouble by doing that. He was easily up on my scorecard against Povetkin, and got a little bit too excited as per usual, and suffered a knockout as a result. The guy is fairly talented, but he has 0 boxing IQ. Povetkin has a monster chin, which has been proven time, and time again. I wouldn't be looking for the knockout if I was Whyte, just win the boxing match, and move on. Of course, that's assuming this goes similar to the first fight.

Unfortunately, what makes whyte exciting to watch, is also what keeps causing his downfalls..

That's not fair, saying he has 0 boxing IQ.  Tongue
We don't know yet his strategy this time.
I am certain, he watched the past game over and over again, and see what needs to be done.
Let us not underestimate their capabilities. Maybe we will be surprised on this upcoming fight.

True, that's what makes boxing fights really exciting though, and agree he always goes for a knock out and I think everyone does, but the problem with boxers like Whyte is that if their opponents stand up because of superior chin, they don't have any plan B.

And the first fight was very evident, Povetkin has a monster chin, was able to get up from those two brutal knock down. But Whyte doesn't have plan B and still goes for another knock out until he was hit when the upper cut that ended the fight in favor of a less superior but has granite chin in Povetkin.

If that's the case than we will not be seeing Whyte winning in this fight, unless he will try to do the scoring rather than looking for a KO win. Remember that he loss in the first fight, he needs to be aggressive here because if he cannot KO Povetkin, he might not win in the scorecard, that's the risk IMO.

Winding down.
I thought Whyte had it truthfully, he was winning the rounds and Povetkin suffered 2 knock downs already. You can't really take the Heavyweight class lightly, because one small mistake and everything can go sideways. Never disrespect and underestimate a russian even though he's pass his prime.

Indeed! Experienced and the will to win still there and be a motivations to win back.

Boxers always a fighter giving them opportunities to bounce back will let you suffer the most, if you have great opportunities to finished the fight better doing it and never to give slight chnce for your opponents to pick himself up and recover, once it's been done expect that he's be more aggressive to win over you.
It's a matter of fighting spirit and courage to win the fight and everything else will follow. All of your hard work of training it's all be worth it if a fighter has trained his mind more than his body. That is a lethal weapon of any fighter there when they were in the ring, that's why never ever underestimate your opponent until you knock them down. But in terms of defensive fighting style it all matters to the score and judges, I don't think I like the idea but if you are only after the money then you can play like that just like Mayweather did.

Why so much hate on Mayweather on the he fights? He wont be reaching that rank or fame if he isnt that good and basing off in all fights then making points is all you need.
Hit the opponent but you should avoid on not to be hit up back and thats the main aim for most boxers.
Towards the fight between whyte and povetkin then i can say that stats arent really too far off but when it comes to experience then povetkin do have it.
Whyte had been lost to Joshua and recently with Povetkin and trying to prove out on whose better or neither close the rivalry is on with this upcoming fight.


Why can't we just stop bringing Mayweather in every boxing topic? lol.. Mayweather has a lot of haters but there are also people who support him, that's just normal as a boxers as no boxer has gain everyone's support.

This is Whyte vs Povetkin II that will happen 1 month from now.

This is a godo fight as the last one as  KO win by Povetkin, so let's see if Whyte can avenge his loss, bet on him or no, I believe this will end up a great fight.

I think Whyte  will be more careful here, he might just box Povetkin and get the score, just like AJ did against Ortiz and this will be a boring fight if that's the scenario we are going to witness. As a fan, I love to see a good fight and i really hope this fight would end with a KO, if Whyte would win, I'll love to see that but if Povetkin, I'll accept that.
This will be an exciting match actually, this will be a mind games match because Povetkin might have the cards up his sleeve on what he will do about this very scenario that you are talking about. A long drag fight will be the biggest disadvantage for Whyte here because he is the challenger plus he needs to land more clean hits and some knockdowns against Povetkin. My taste is more on long dragged fights because I want to savor each round and most live audience would want to because they want to get what they pay for, a bloodsport.
It should be a good fight, I'm expecting a more explosive fight than the first fight, still Whyte is listed as the favorites but Povetkin has the confidence already because he already beat Whyte once, and I like it because he is the underdog in the fight and this will get some bettors to favor on him.

I don't think that Whyte will change his style in the rematch, if ever this fight will still push through. Might be cautious in the first 2 rounds, but he still still go for the KO just like in the first fight. I'm sure he wanted revenge and in his mind a KO will leave no doubt that the first fight was really a fluke. Just hope that Povetkin will recover soon, so Dillian will not have this kind of get busy fights in between.

After the first fight Whyte will not be so confident in his abilities and psychologically allow for a repeat scenario. This situation can be very destabilizing for him emotionally and it will play a cruel trick on him in the end. I've been leaning more and more lately that he can't go more than a few rounds.
If he's (Whyte) not so confident who will have confidence in him? I dont people judge him because their first fight ended at the 5th round but i dont see whats stopping Whyte from going few rounds when Tyson and Ray fight ended at the 8th round and the last time i checked Whyte he just 32 years old.
Having said that, i expect him to learn from Joshua though some fans will find the fight to be boring but winning is very important.
