Ref admonishing Ben for his showmanship was disappointing. Boxing is entertainment and the boxers are the main attraction. Nobody comes to a fighting event to watch the ref.
I love how in every fight he laughs at his opponent playing with him inside the ring but as soon as the fight ends he always shows respect for his rival. What a guy.
Lol it easy to be the best when all the best men from round the world live here lol I ran 100 metters 10.3 when I was 15 my pe teacher said I could be the fastest in UK I told him am just average bk in Jamaica I have never won a race in j.a but never lost in the UK
At this level. He needs to fight someone that can showboat like he does but chooses not to. Then we will see. He needs to move closer to champion level fighters.
Honestly, he shouldn’t aim too high; his show is perfect with this type of boxer. The top-tier ones would eat him alive. Or at least, I don’t think he could put on this kind of show against the greatest. The moment he loses focus, they’ll catch him.
lol it takes time to build oneself into a formidable champ. This is just a stepping stone for him and he should not rush. Your comment cracked up up though lol
@@jermainewilson9660Eddie will pick him up soon enough maybe just waiting for him to progress a little more he still a work in progress young and hardly any pro experience yet so nothing wrong with letting him fight domestically before contacting him.
Ben is one of my fav fighters all the time. Love his boxing, man. Mad man. I feel he got a few disorders going on with him, which helps in the ring. AMAZING
Not sure what a 'bellwhiff' is (another chav term created by a chav I guess) but he is a fantastic fighter. Great talent with the right character for boxing and humble (if you have ever actually met him). If you dislike him then you're easily offended.
Next time i watch him is when he gets sparked, when you’ve got someone in trouble you don’t taunt them it’s like you’re trying to humiliate another professional fighter.
I can imagine some punter going mad because they bet on the 3rd round ko, only for Whittaker to completely let him off the hook. If the opponent is ready to go then pull the trigger & get the finish. I wish him well but one day in the far future, he may be in the position of eroded skills or a lapse of concentration & get knocked out while messing around. You don’t play boxing. Easy on the showboating. Good skills.
I actually like the showboating! Don't see what the problem is and why the ref needs to get involved if its a problem let the other boxer deal with it by using his fists.
@@APW11.Your projecting your original comment closer to vulnerability than what I said, at least we know if we was both fighters who would be exposed first lool
@@Local-Vibes4444 , I'm discussing Sky Sports Boxing; I never mentioned a particular fighter, that was you. Your skills in the ring aren't anything special. Dolt!
Ben's ringwalk is class, can imagine it ina few years in a stadium in a title fight (and the producers focus in on the music audio not ben's mates horns lol) big up Ben 👊
#1) There is no such rule that says you can't turn around in a circle... #2) Ben Whittaker's fight commentaries is like a 3 year old trying to explain calculus... #3) Roy Jones, Floyd Mayweather or even Michael 'Venom' Page should be guest commentating in Whittaker's bouts, because they understand Elusive styles of fighting.Ali & Ray Leonard did it...
I feel like he’s definitely going to be a problem going up the ranks, the height, reach, movement, handspeed and power is clearly difficult to deal with.
Lol i don't get all the hate, the kids young at 24, he's entertaining, flashy, and gets the highlight reel KO's, plus he has big character, he stands out from the crowd, at 5-0 he's probably the most exciting prospect in Britian right now!! Kids got skills, he's gonna be a big star, so long as he keeps on winning, and gains that valuable experience, which if you rush and miss out on, will never get a chance to get it back
Because he went overboard showboating and mocking a low level opponent that he was supposed to beat easily. Some showmanship is great, but doing it to the level that Whittaker did was just outright disrespectful to his opponent. People don't really like to see that. You could literally hear the collective turn from everyone being excited to see what this young prospect could to do hoping he would just get flatlined.
Ben tienes un mundo en el boxeo te admiro amigo des de Venezuela siempre estoy viendo tus peleas y tus videos y tus entrenamientos te felicito y te deseo lo mejor en tu vida y para tu futuro tremendo boxeador y tremendas presentaciones amigo para mí eres el mejor del mundo dios te de todo lo que desees en tu vida del boxeo
Soy fanático 100% de Whittaker,no doubts,le deseo lo mejor y lo.mejor es q se mantenga como vá y venga a USA a pelear con los mejores,con las fieras e imponga su estilo. El muchacho tiene mejores cualidades q Naseem,apuesto por el.
Gdmn that was clean. Great fight and bro surgeon is good on those feet with quick hands of stone. Really good fighter. Would be interesting to see him kick box actually lol
16:37 Ben got Rocked..staggers.. Takes a 20 second break after looking out at the crowd and talking to the ref.. He's wide open to that left hook all night.. Far from elite.. Bivol.. Beterbiev.. Yarde.. Smith.. Ramirez.. Names Ben the slime Shalom has nightmares about
Ben is showboating, but, when he fights a Bivol or Canelo, he will be put sleep. Remember the Prince Hamed? He was a showboater, till he fought Berrera, who dropped him, and went on to win the fight! Retired the Prince.
Sugar Hill a class act, immediately giving them the stool before celebrating. I was there and I was there for Whitaker’s debut, he is something else! Fight of the night, KO of the night, performance of the night and ring walk of the night. Please come back to Bournemouth Ben! & for the haters/ doubters he has the power, accuracy and IQ to deal with anyone, he won’t get found out, especially with Sugar Hill in his corner.
Jeez, Whittaker is a good fighter, no question about it, but at age 26, & with just a handfull of fights, he,d better get busy, time is NOT on his side.
@@francishughes542He had a strong amateur career so he will be fine but I hear what you are saying, besides him starting later just means his prime will end later in his 30s and not earlier, only a handful of fighters can start their pro career early 20s and still be fighting in late 30s most tend to fall of mid to late 30s if there lucky and early 30s if they are active enough
@@francishughes542LHW a very declined division as well so its not as if he will have to fight a long list of people to get the chance, I think by 30, 31 he will be ready to fight for a title and just needs to keep staying active and winning because he has special talent for someone his size and almost reminds me of tyson fury minis the pillow hands and chin lool
Wow too much hate relax it’s the entertainment business
Are you not entertained?
No
@@thomaskendell8146 don’t watch him then simple
@@thomaskendell8146 salty boy answer
I mean if a guy is not even looking at his opponent and still doesn't get hit, then that's on the opponent.
I don't know men
He's an entertainer and i loved it he should keep doing his thing, all the haters can keep crying
Ref admonishing Ben for his showmanship was disappointing. Boxing is entertainment and the boxers are the main attraction. Nobody comes to a fighting event to watch the ref.
This man is now my favourite boxer. Hope he keeps the style and stays humble.
Me too. He has serious skills.
Tell him fight boots
❤@@chrisbarlow8605
You can see how humble he looks
@@Lolnika make sense, please. You don't know me and don't know my opinion about this boxer.
Felt like his soul left his body for a sec , what a knockout
I love how in every fight he laughs at his opponent playing with him inside the ring but as soon as the fight ends he always shows respect for his rival. What a guy.
UK on top once again. We should be proud as a country the fact we do so well at so many different sports
Lol it easy to be the best when all the best men from round the world live here lol I ran 100 metters 10.3 when I was 15 my pe teacher said I could be the fastest in UK I told him am just average bk in Jamaica I have never won a race in j.a but never lost in the UK
steady on..whittaker aint done sh't yet..yarde and buatsi are still young..he won't get past those dudes...
@@HolyRollerTV clearly talking about the UK as a who!e not just Whittaker.
@@Gamer-do7qv talk sense or stfu
The last time the uk was on top was the days of the British empire 😂
From the comments it looks like his marketing strategy is working.
At this level. He needs to fight someone that can showboat like he does but chooses not to. Then we will see. He needs to move closer to champion level fighters.
@@fromthebay6681 stupid he just started his pro career you think they will give him a shot right away?

LOVED that intro with the dancer and piano! boxing pretty good too :-)
lol i think the piano would be kanye west song😂
she baddd 🔥🔥
Yeah he 27 and just starting his career? The first world class opponent he fights he will get found out !
Was in olympics don’t forget
He got found out on that DAZN card 258 put him on. That was a stitch up when Sky were trying to build this man
lol it takes time to build oneself into a formidable champ. This is just a stepping stone for him and he should not rush. Your comment cracked up up though lol
Froch went pro very late and became a huge success story.
@@ThehulkGreen he wasn't messing about At this level
i could watch ben all day
THIS MAN will b the REAL DEAL
imagine he was on matchroom on big undercards.. instead hes on a cruiserweights card on a sunday
Eddie will get him
He needs to go to Hearn.....he should be round the table in Saudi in December.....
@@jermainewilson9660Eddie will pick him up soon enough maybe just waiting for him to progress a little more he still a work in progress young and hardly any pro experience yet so nothing wrong with letting him fight domestically before contacting him.
He'll get there .
finally i found him my new favorate fighter he more than a boxer. bro keep going don't rush the process.
People crying over him showboating r hilarious 😭 it’s part of the entertainment
Ben is one of my fav fighters all the time. Love his boxing, man. Mad man. I feel he got a few disorders going on with him, which helps in the ring. AMAZING
😂😂😂😂
Ii instinctively took a dislike to this guy after the showboating against an empty can 😂😂
Whittaker comes off a proper bellwhiff
Not sure what a 'bellwhiff' is (another chav term created by a chav I guess) but he is a fantastic fighter. Great talent with the right character for boxing and humble (if you have ever actually met him). If you dislike him then you're easily offended.
Touched a nerve with you though didn't it 😂
@@rickisunakeasily offended? You wrote a paragraph because or the term “bellwhiff”
Coming frm a keyboard warrior🤭🤣
@@47eks222 I was at this event, I was shouting abuse at this guy the entire fight. Dude never did anything about it
I love the way the guy is fighting. 👊💪😍
This boxer is unique , boxing and intertain ,that's a nice combination , may be some people hate his style
This guy is a hard hitting entertainer ,i wish he stays real like he is ❤😂
Next time i watch him is when he gets sparked, when you’ve got someone in trouble you don’t taunt them it’s like you’re trying to humiliate another professional fighter.
Levels
🙄🙄🙄Cry some more?!🤭
if theyre getting humiliated maybe they should do something about it huh? 😂
he gets into their head when doing things like this 🤷 it works for him
That walk in was little 🎹🎼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Done Whittaker wrong in the thumbnail 😂
Classy 😊can move and has power he will knock guys out some knock out that was boy was gone👊🏻💪🏻
The drunken master in boxing. Stay humble bro ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Good to watch Whittaker but how will he react to adversity. Early days
But I hope he does go on to big things representing West Midlands
I predict this man’s career to follow the same trajectory as Josh Kelly
Nah josh Kelly had no power
beautiful
I don't no why his show boating cuz the guy was still landing punches on him 😂
its boxing thats what happens even mayweather got banged a few times, but ben dominated no problem thats why he's showboating
Whittaker won't be show boating when he comes up against world class.
He is world class son
Speaking from somebody who’s never boxed
If he does what then? I don't like the showboating some of the time but i think that's just how Whittaker is. We're all different
Hahahaha 😂@@bradleyfellows1074
Its called promotion
Whittaker's trying to channel or be a modern iteration/variant of Emanuel Augustus.
pentinju yg sangat langka di temuin
Whitaker ❤❤ reflek dan pukulan sangat mengagumkan ❤❤❤
He calls himself the surgeon.😂
Damn. That's a good combo. And it's a setup.
Class act Ben looking forwards to your whole career
Dance ,left and right punch combination is so great,no doubt at all.🌹🌹🙏🏼⚖️☝️
wow! this guy really listened to his trainer. Simplest form of boxing. Right hand fake, step back then a right hand left hooked.
The surgeon does it again and again.Nothing can stop this guy he is on top of his game.He dances and sting like a Bee 🐝🍯.
Wittaker trop classe !!! En plus il a toujours de bons gestes sympa envers ses adversaires. Respect !!
Wonderful,nice boxing❤,stay humble
10:17 stivens face after ben dodged all his punches says it all
Slk mano esse maluco de outro planeta
If ultra instinct was real😂
Mad how much confidence Whittaker got. Wonder where it comes from?
why nobody are talking about his iconic entrance? I’m huge fan
I can imagine some punter going mad because they bet on the 3rd round ko, only for Whittaker to completely let him off the hook. If the opponent is ready to go then pull the trigger & get the finish.

The showboating not needed it’s a fight
I disagree, its up to his opponent to stop his showboating by landing solid shots, somethiing that no one has done yet.
ofc it's not needed but it adds entertainment, if anything it helps ben with making his opponents lose confidence
That walk at 15:29 was serious. Ben wasn’t playin
That damn thumbnail 😓🤣

It'll be interesting to see how he deals with an elite boxer who's a pressure fighter. Like when Broner fought Maidana.
