    Just watched Katie Taylor and was shocked the judges saw such a one sided points decision because it looked very close to me and I wouldn't have been shocked if she had lost.

    Looking forward to Whyte hopefully stopping Povetkin to show some real intent as he should be fighting Fury before Joshua can.

    Only one card was shockingly wide. The other two called it perfectly.

    Very close, Taylor was the more technical boxer but for aggression and punches landed you would have to say the other girl showed more. Did you see the first match between those two? Another one that could have gone either way.

    I think Whyte will be too much for povetkin, I wasn't impressed with povetkin in his last match against hunter. Anything can happen in that division tho.

    I had it a draw. Can’t complain at the 2 score cards that had it close. But a ref with the knowledge and experience of Victor Loughlin to score it that wide is ridiculous and shows clear bias in my opinion.

    If he didn’t before hand Povetkin must be thinking now the only way of winning tonight is to nail Whyte to the canvass.

    Great fight Taylor was technically better than the previous fight and landed the cleaner punches. On sheer aggression Delphine would have taken the fight. Didn't rock Taylor like she did in the first fight. I think Taylor has had enough fighting her and will look elsewhere, and who would blame her.

    I had it as a draw, but would say Taylor did the cleaner, more classy work. The other lass is a machine though. Great scrap again.

    I like Dillian Whyte, but he's not great. I hope he beats Povetkin, and then gets a chance against one of the champions, but I'm sorry, both of them would beat him easily. He's just another Chisora.

    Dominating the fight, goes 1/50 on in play betting and loses. Goes to show it only ever takes one punch.

    Povetkin looked like a old guy windmilling on wellington street on a sedi night up to the knockdown.

    Hate boxing me. 1000 days as number 1, for it all to finish like that.

    He didn’t need to take that chance and many more before that in those 1000 days. Did it for the fans. Huge respect and I really hope he gets the opportunity he still deserves in my opinion. Brave man!

    Eddie Hearn how comical. All week going on about the winner will be mandatory for Fury and now changed his whole tune banging on about a rematch.

    He's got to be worried his two star heavyweights have been knocked out in quick succession as it won't help Dazn get bigger and his Sky contract doesn't have long left. With covid making cash tight and the stars of his stable (including Taylor) looking far from invincible, he doesn't have the bargaining power in negotiations that he would have had a year ago.

    You’ve got to love the heavy weight division it only takes that one punch and the fight can be over. Never saw it coming especially after the 2 knockdowns the previous round fair play to Povetkin.
