    @SwipeGameplay 6 месяцев назад +118

    It's not impressive from a boxers outlook. What's strange is whitaker doesn't seem to have explosive power for his weight. If he put more time into explosive attacks as much as he does showboating he would be really dangerous. But even here he is still getting tagged by a slow speed and not technical fighter which is concerning. Fighters now need to go after his body as tag it as its easier target to hit then work the head. Similar to the guy in his last fight when he was on the ropes being worked on. We all know ben wants to do that head swish to the side movement but his body is still there to be hit. High level IQ fighters like me can see it on a mobile screen so imagine in real person how fast a technical fighter can register simple mistakes like that on ben.
    And what's more weird is why can't Ben finish an opponent who's clearly fatigued in front of you and go up a gear? There's just a lot of question marks which at high level he absolutely will get hurt or even slept. Being confident is great being over confident is dangerous.

      ​@GMTReady from a fighters perspective not a fan. I'm talking from a technical standpoint. When you break it down. Showboating but yet still getting caught by a slow fighter not just this fight but his last one. He hasn't finished his last 2 opponents. And doing showboating against a low skilled opponent isn't great. The stuff whitaker is doing isn't special I done it for years and can do it now still it's easy. He is vulnerable. Gives me barrera vs prince naseem vibes.
      What I'm saying is look past the tricks and glamour and see it for what it was. Fans are entertained and think omg he is amazing he can move but really he is okay. Pernall whitaker, Mike tyson, Floyd mayweather, lomachenko , canelo are the levels he should get to. If you getting tagged now you are an accident waiting to happen my friend.

      As a person I like Ben. But where he is stage wise and the showboating he needs to put people away. Otherwise it reminds me of josh Kelly's first pro loss and how bad he looked. The same will happen to him if he keeps at this rate. Even I know that style and I also know many other styles sometimes you got to stand and bang and get in the trenches. We haven't seen that from him yet nor what happens when he gets hurt and super low on energy. Has potential but atm it's reached its ceiling.

      It’s hard to say because he doesn’t really sit down on his punches. His style seems to be a mixture of showboating, fast flurries, and pot-shots. The pot shots and flurries is an amateur thing, so maybe once that’s worn off he’ll start to dig his heels in and develop a bit of power

      He didn't really, there were like 10 seconds left in final round. He said himself he would've got him out of there but couldn't.

    I don’t mind the showboating, but this is second fight recently that’s gone all 10 rounds. He needs to finish people off sooner.

    I see myself tuning in to Whittaker’s future fights… to watch him get knocked out.

    Looking forward to seeing him against higher level opponents…
    Chin and power are a question but he is undoubtedly very very very talented..
    Super entertaining!!!

    My issue with Whittaker isn't the showboating.
    It's the fact he's one of those fighters who would rather make their opponent look like a training partner than just getting them out of there.
    Sooner or later fighters like him get into a real fight with a real fighter who is not going to let certain opportunities go where he steps on the outside with zero defense.
    Against Beterbiev or Bivol?
    He's toast.
