History repeats itself...new guy does somewhat unidentifiable thing and gets hate until years later he is regarded as a legend for it...himanity stays in a loop
The jury is out on whether he is good or not. If you keep winning, you become a legend. If you lose, you turn into the village idiot.
Naz wasn't hated lol. Ben whittaker might get a world title, but he will most likely be exposed when he steps up. Augustin was on a different level to this joker..
The thing is he’s doing this against a guy with 13 loses 🤡🤡
right
The cheers are growing for him and refs are getting booed for stopping the showboating. Humanity has evolved.
Let's be real, you can't pull off this dicking around without being quite skilled.
You can with the level of opposition he's had so far .
look at merab and hernandez in the recent ufc. taunting. flipping people off mid exchange and shit. taking a punch and sticking your tongue out. this is how high level guys fight. they showboat to invite agressions and use that to win.
@@johnmarkson1998Hernandez is a dog when he fought Edmend shabuzayn after being caught lean he was giving him the peace sign and flipping him off was funny to watch
@@johnmarkson1998no it’s not.. It’s how certain individuals fight. That’s all.
This guy did this against a guy who has 13 losses- we’ll see how it goes when he steps up the competition
...right up until he meets someone who gets a read on him. He's currently paddling in the shallow end, time will tell.
he's expressing himself through boxing. wether or not he belongs, the results will say. so far so good. i'm a fan.
He's to add spice to the sport.
He’s going to get knocked out cold on the biggest stage 😂
Dick ,won't be long till he gets put in his place.
Agree
He creates so many distractions it becomes almost impossible to anticipate, I think he is brilliant.
yes it is very distractive, and gives him extra chances
hes defeating opponent psychologically, then finish opponent with real strikes
People don't just understand the meaning of entertainment in boxing those are not true boxing fans at all
@@kevinstoto4733 These guys would've hated a young Cassius Clay
People mock his last opponent but he did a great job fixing my boiler to be fair to him.
Gave you the old "fixing the boiler" line when ya caught him with the Mrs did he?
That was gold
😂
His previous opponent was also great. Helped me and the missus lift our luggage out of his taxi.
Lol yeah, he also fixed my toilet last week... top lad
Augustus was outright robbed on sooo many occasions. The refs punished him as well. If he's finishing journeymen in devastating fashion, the next step is contenders. I see nothing wrong with it.
I love it, boxing needs this sometimes
Yeah and because Ben copying Emanuel Augustus style Ben will eventually start getting Robbed as well refs and judges hate the drunken master style Augustus was famous for
Brilliant showmanship.
@@AMGTT
Augustus didn't even shit and Ben isn't copying him you casual clown. The syles are different and Ben's more entertaining and dynamic
He looks relaxed and having fun. It's a very entertaining style and isn't that what we are really paying for? He's got my vote.
I think he's awesome and really proving a point by behaving like this. I say keep it going, absolutely loving it.
Definitely reminds me of Emanuel Augustus. Obviously, Augustus fought much better guys so Whittaker has to step up in competition level before this style can be proven effective for him at elite level, but there's no denying it's entertaining.
First thing I thought. Mainly thanks to The Modern Martial Artist.
The lesson is: watch more UA-cam, kids.
He's a prospect dude, you think he should be fighting Emmanuel Augustus level of competition with just 6 fights?? 🤣
@@demiurgeobzen327no, I did not state that. I was inferring that his style might work against minnows, but may not be effective when he fights top tier opposition. I am not advocating for him to immediately fight ranked guys. He's better off slowly improving the calibre of his opponents.
@garymac5571 Ah, gotchya. My bad dude 👍🏾
Emmanuel I believe Floyd jr said, was his toughest opponent throughout his career because of that style. Totally agree though. Ben has to step up the competition to see if this style works today with the amount of talent that’s beginning to pour out into the boxing scene these days. Lamont Roach Jr, Keyshawn Davis, and there’s another kid who Keyshawn was going at it with the other day the kid is from Detroit or somewhere and holds the WBA belt. Also there’s the likes of Shakur Stevenson and also Bruce Carrington. Boxing outside the heavyweight division is beginning to light up
Some people seem to forget that sports is entertainment & the more people you get to pay attention, the more money you'll make.
The bottom line is the guy only has six professional fights and people are already talking about him so OBVIOUSLY what he's doing is working
Is this Charlie Chaplin of this generation
Love him or hate him, what other fighter with only six fights are you commenting on?
I happened to be in Vegas when Floyd Mayweather fought Connor and a HUGE percentage of the people in Vegas were wearing Irish flags, had their face painted, were wearing McGregor gear, and were screaming: "F**k the Mayweathers."
And because so many people were rooting for him to lose, Floyd made $280 Million Dollars 😆
That's how entertainment works. As long as you're paying attention, they make more money
@@scarrington Only that compares in terms of Hype this early in their career is Jake Paul (excluding MMA guys that have like 20 professional Fights and are simply debuting in Boxing).
Another guy that has managed to monetise the Fuck out of getting hated
Love it.
I think it took Tyson 7-8 pro games to win a huge following over TV broadcast
Being criticized for what?? He's doing his thing and we love him for it. That's his style and he's entertaining us after all the sport is all about entertainment. He's a generational boxer.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
fax imo
Haven’t a clue about boxing but watched this because of Ben and I went to school with him. I’ve subscribed to you because I thoroughly enjoyed your commentary 😂
He's playing the perfect game.
Look at how many people are talking about him.
The fact he’s being spoken about show he’s doing the right thing, hats off to him not many get to go to the olympics and win a silver medal and become a prospect in the pros.
Wow, just seen this randomly and whooo Ben Whittaker love it from New Zealand 🇳🇿
I was just looking up highlights on who been Whitaker was I didn't really know who he was and I came across your video you are truly hilarious great narration this was the first video I watched of yours I'm going to subscribe and keep up with you keep up the great work
Regardless of how his career goes, in his last fight against Graidia he pulled off one of Emanuel Augustus' dances near flawlessly. Being a massive fan of Augustus, it really made me respect Whittakers style. No one has done it like Augustus since so I will be keeping up on Whittakers fights.
Likewise
Got me too.
Thing is Augustus fought while doing his thing. THAT WAS HIS STYLE. He only tampered it down because judges were vindictive and wasn’t giving him pts.
Will be interesting If he can make a Career Like Augusto.
He is a goat and it is still hilarios to watch him
Emanuel Augustus could fill seats with boxing fans. He also fought everybody. Never punched down
I enjoy watching boxing since a young age. It's nice to see someone enjoy themself in what they doing.
Same with my thought, at least he enjoyed the fight and didn't have any pressure.
I love the guy . Makes the sport entertaining to watch . It was getting boring. It's a refreshing sight . Well done Whittaker ❤
People are just pissed because this shines a light on how mismatched boxing matches are. These matches generally only exist to pad and inflate the 'star' boxer's record. Match boxers up against guys of similar skill level from the start of their career, and you won't see this shit happening. At least not without catastrophic consequences.
That isn't what annoys me - what annoys me is showboating as an olympian against part-time journeymen.
It's disrespectful.
If he pulls it off against better competition, fair play, but until they away with that shit.
@@guntguardian3771 He shouldn't be fighting journeymen in the first place, that's the point. His showboating and blatant disregard of his opponents skills highlights that fact. Match boxers up against similar opponents who are at a similar stage in their career. Boxing is the only sport in the wolrd where you aren't allowed to lose even once, which leads to boxers cherrypicking easy opponents, resulting in completely lopsided uneven and unexciting matches.
Fair point brev
This wouldn't be a problem if modern boxing didn't have the ridiculous standard of a single loss ruining your career
@@_Sp4c3y_ Agreed.
I like this Dude. He's got the GLOW, and will bring LIFE to Boxing.
His antics, attitude, pugilistic skills and ability to self-market while increasing media exposure is brilliant.
He WELCOMES Haters. They give him, MORE exposure to new fans.😂😅😂
Brilliant Entertainer!
To be honest.. you're at your best when you're having fun. I think he's good.. some of his antics are illegal like back fists and hammer fist (soft or not) to the top of the head or anywhere for that matter aren't legal in boxing. But other than that i say have at it.. have fun.. and entertain us. 👍🤙.
True Indeed 👊🏾
@@pwest5713 You know it My Brother!🫱🏽🫲🏽
Loved the commentary, very unique style, keepem coming mate!
I'm a boxing fan, also an amateur boxer long ago and I absolutely love watching this guy.
He’s a breath of fresh air as boxing as been going down hill for the last couple of years
Fair play to him, he's getting people talking about him. Boxing is a very hard business, so if this gets him noticed.
Dude your commentary is hilarious! A howard cosell intonation with the brit accent. Your irreverence is way more entertaining than the other stuffy guys. Well done guy. 👍🏽👍🏽😀😀
I see it as him keeping that fighting style living he the only guy ive seen fight like this since Emmanuel Augustus. That style is unique and i love watching it. Let the man do his work💯🤟🏾
He's playing a perfect game at the moment. He knows he is fighting sub-par opposition, but it's getting him the headlines and people want to see him fight. As you say Propa, whether they want to see him spark out on the canvas or arm in the air, it's all eyes on the fight. Exactly what promoters will pay for. He seems like a sensible guy and when he's up for a title fight, I'm sure he will calm it down ... right up to the point someone hits the deck!
Peoples are starting to hate him too, wanting to see him get koed, that = money
It's not playing the perfect game though, might get you abit of a following but fighting sub par opposition as an ex Olympian isn't going to improve you as a fighter.
@@mikeyL575 Every single boxer goes through journeyman to set up their records, what even is your point?
@@gabrielpasqualini8413 But they don't all clown their opponents like Ben. If you wanna build your rep that way, get ready for all the videos calling you rat/smug/whatever when you get knocked down.
This dude’s commentary is hilarious; just earned a new sub!
Sane here
@@redpillras3456 me too , how he read that guys name killed me
@@mrwaeta1the fart sound is what got me lol
Plus one
Grey job brother well done I love it keep it up the way you do it is the way to go
He'll eventually meet his own Antonio Barrera.
If it works for him, he’ll probably be a have been a big draw and cashed in by the time he meets his own Barrera
Who will be nowhere near the level of Barrera. This guy will get spanked within 8 fights or less.
Exactly
EVERYONE DOES IT WEATHER HE CAN RISE ABOVE IT
@@fromunderthekilt6310 I really doubt that. Not saying he'll go as far as Naz but I think he'll go far. He was an excellent amateur. Pretty certain he'll tone down on the show boating once there is a bit more danger in front of him. He's a pretty cringe character but he's got people talking. Best of luck to him.
He does need to step up and prove that he can do all this showboating bs with world-class opposition.
Ryan Garcia has been a social media star for ages but look what happened when he fought together opposition.
He's 6 fights in you absolute tool
To be fair, even if it backfires, it can be lucrative if it makes him a draw.
Whether people pay to be entertained or see him get knocked into next week, it can pay off for him. At least monetarily
This guy is not a social media star. Most boxing fans don't even know who he is. Only hardcore UK boxing fans know that he exists.
@@MyDeadAlbatross of course. My comment is only contingent on him developing enough to make world level.
I hate fighting together guys
The fight is not only physical is also psychological. Mr. Whittaker just does not leave nothing by chance, the guy is just that damn good. I mean, his psyops is so freaking good that even the fans get frustrated, that's it.
I have just subscribed. I love the narrative style. Proper Londoner lol
Ben Whittaker fan ❤❤❤
IDGAF!!!! Fire Fist Ace watch him knock every opponent out! 🔥🤛
Its a show and he is a showman, he will bring eyes to the sport and more fans = more money, people will watch to see him get chinned or to become a World Champ, but either way they will be watching.
That is what I call boxing artistry. He combines the art of boxing and entertainment & brewed a total entertainment
He's definitely brilliant and very intersting to watch. Exactly what boxing needs.
🔴🔵HE IS GIFTED CLEARLY ANY BOXER CAN AGREE WITH ME……IT IS NOT EASY TO Duplicate his expertise HE TURNS BOXING INTO ART AND hate it or like it he is a PROFESSIONAL!
Your profile picture is so fucking dope
@@stewart950 😆thanks man🤜
No problem
He will always divide opinion but he's good for boxing and a definite talent. I normally hate this kind of thing but he is a naturally gifted talent for sure. Cheers propa ❤
"If you don't be yourself, you'd get found out" - Respect 💪
I was never into fighting sports but this guy made it interesting for me to watch where I found myself watching heaps of boxing now
@Propa Boxing Love your work. Narrating is on point. Thank you. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👊🏾
Bro I love this video there's no filters you make boxing reviews worth watching couldn't stop laughing keep doing your thing big up 👊👊
If he actually does this against skilled opponents, he will easily be one of my favorite boxers.
I love it looks like he's having fun and whooping ass at the same time
The fart noise when he bopped him on the head! I can’t even😂
Missed you last week propa hope you are well
Dude is the truth.. he can fight. And he's entertaining ..Keep up
you cannot do this without supreme Footwork and Iq.. Quick twitch and upmost confidence.. I love it
The reason I like this guy is because he's humble, most who do, or did this stuff are/were arrogant people who thought they were untouchable. Ben is just being Ben it seems to me. I hope he goes far, he's definitely good to watch.
He's only humble because he's not rich yet. His fighting style is too cocky for him to continue pretending to be humble.
Humble!? You see him acting like that and think he’s humble!?
Yep, his dicking around and humiliating opponents screams humbleness.
🤣
Yes Propa. Banging upload bro. Always one to look forward to & never ceases to entertain.! Maybe it's because I'm older, I don't like it when Whitaker does what he does to opponents that are levels below him. If he does it to champions, contenders, or opponents that are disrespectful then good on him.! What a terrific prospect.! Great to see your Opetaia upload on DAZN.! Props to you.!! Bless up 👊
100% agree. If he can clown guys who are on paper better than him, then I’d be a fan.
DAZN? Did Propa do a womens football gig? 😂
@@JerreMuesli??
Ben is the only reason I’ve been watching boxing at all. I would never ever turn on a fight..but Ben has me watching.
Love Ben Whittker, Pure entertainment. Keep up the good work.
he had my attention when there was a matchroom event going on on DAZN; keep going Whittaker, keep winning fights
Love the commentry.. thanks fir the vid.
He’s so much fun to watch in person.
Don’t like him? Don’t watch him and save some seats for the rest of us.
Nice to see Uncle Propa popping up on the DAZN app! Quality content Unc
The Confidence to Ability gap has never been larger than that of Uzzy.
He'll forever be adorned for that clip 👍
Abdolute goldmine!!!!
His unpredictability is menacing. The fans are going to pay a lot and often to watch him.
He lures you into relaxing & surprises you. You can't read his cadence so you get caught over & over again. Scary.
I’m American & I’m A Huge Ben Fan!
I'm English and I'm not .
@@topfuelteddy I'm Scottish and I think he is a Brilliant Idiot that has got the world talking about a 7 fight pro novice.
@@g-man4297 The world is talking about him 🤣🤣.
@@topfuelteddy haters gona hate 😂
@@ObjectiveMedia Twats going to be twats 😂
The way he holds that chin up is going to be manna from heaven to the top boys in the division. I can't wait
people might find it disrespectful but at the end of the day both fighters are earning their bread doing what they love because they're in the entertainment business and Whitaker really is entertaining to watch. 2 fighters in a ring might not share the same fanbase but they sure as hell share the same audience.
He's brilliant. No one gets this much press without coming off the Olympics after just a hand full of fights.
❤ the shoutout to emmanuel people forget hes the originator also love the broner, sav and muzzy joke 😂😂
Yeah whites say they made everything😂😂😂
You left out Jorge Paez and Hector Camacho. Nothing wrong with a bit of showmanship in my opinion. As long as they pick spots to hold their feet and throw some punches I like it.
Naseem also learned directly from Herol Graham.
he's awesome entertainment he's fast as lighting can't wait to see more !
I love him....he is my guy....the guy is brilliant
So far.......
Let the man cook! Boxing is a form of artful expression, and I cant wait to see what he looks like against more stout competition
When are you going to get in the ring yourself?
@@nativeamericancowboy5028Will you be his opponent?
@@nashbullet3213 Sure. I'm a boxer also
@@nativeamericancowboy5028 I'm confused by your response. Nothing I said was disrespectful at all
@@cobym I didn't disrespect either.
I just asked when do you plan to box.
He's no prince naz no one will ever match the high high quality he was but ya gotta love a man go out to entertain in what is entertainment and show business,, keep it up my man and your chin
He faced one good boxer and his whole career crumbled
"Ever"?......what as in never?! That comment is not going to age well son 🤣😂🤣
He boxes to entertain his audience. Though his style is very distractive to his opponents but I hope it does not break any rule of boxing. With all these antics, he punches powerfuly and accurately. Wonderful boxer indeed.
Ben is bringing back etertainment to the sport of boxing. I like him.
I like it, bros trying to be exciting and getting people to talk about him, boxing needs more characters like this , people who can both talk the talk and walk the walk
Walk the walk against tomato cans
I've seen videos of people calling him the new Prince Naseem. He's trying to fight like Emanuel Augustus not Naseem.
💯
That's good , Augustus gave floyd Mayweather hell.
Brilliant! I love the guy! He is skilful not pratting about, he knows what he is doing and is exciting to watch.
I can't believe you included our Preston guy at 3:12
He was always in Tokyo Jo's back in the 90s
Always good when Propa uploads 👍
History proves what goes around comes around
i have a mental image in my brain of Nazeem`s face twisted all over the shop....
@@waynus2021naz was world class though. Whittaker is not on that level.
@@crazychrisfromessex1740But will he become that level?
@@Hunter8413 time will tell
Brilliant and entertaining keep doing what you do
Love him or hate him, he has skill. Lets see who can stop his dancing or will he keep messing around with people and be untouched.
When Whittaker steps up a level or two he won't have time for that sort of entertainment. Having said that it's refreshing to have a character in boxing.
Exactly this. If the results are solid it's fine. Boxing is full of anonymous stars making little money. I'm fine with the antics as silly or disrespectful as it can seem. He's making a name for himself. I'd rather him do this than trash talk or histrionics outside the ring.
@@abdulm2609 My sentiments exactly mate.
Agree, I don’t really get the hate, fun characters make the sport more entertaining. He’s having fun, no problem with it.
He did as a Olympic boxer
Been in hospital for several months dealing with some horrible shit.
I can genuinely say your vids have been one of the few things that actually made me smile and almost laugh in these last few weeks. Today you broke through at 2:04 when I almost snorted a pill out my nose after I had just swallowed it 😂
Thanks, Keep up the great work.
I wish you speedy recovery. Whatever your predicament take your time and stay positive . Many people will cheer for people like you, you are not alone. Hang in there Champion 💪
If he keeps winning, it doesnt matter how he acts, he'll be accepted and become a hero by being himself
Brilliant love this show boat. Keep this uppppp
Absolutely spot on, great vid. I only saw Ben's clips on twitter on Saturday and I am already looking for tickets. I've been hoping to see someone like this since Naz.
Everything you said was correct.
I don’t even watch boxing but after I saw what Ben does in the ring I found myself following boxing now
Fantastic video, brilliantly narrated (thank you) - Its clear this lad is exceptionally talented....can understand some of the dislike as a lot of what he does is piss taking but by feck you'd want to smash him in the ring and all that would do is play into his hands and he'd knockout you out. Watched his last fight and he didn't seem to have the power which the shots look like they have so it'll be interesting how he progresses. But people want to be entertained and he's an entertainer so lets embrace his talent and see how he gets on against those at the top level
I love these kinds of fighters, especially when an opponent finally beats them down. These types of fighters have very fragile egos, once they lose, mentally it all goes downhill quickly for them. Hamed and Broner are two very good examples.
Brilliant
We need more entertainment like this
No we don't. It's Boxing not a comic show.
This guy is a boxing genius as if your mind can get out of the box, ANY box, and do stuff that no one has ever done them before being art, craft, sports, etc and not only do them with style but be one of the best out there, then you must be a genius!
Hes fantastic. The sport needs more showmen. Ali was a showman and ppl fell in love with the style after some time
1:15 had me bustin a gut! lol. The way Propa cut it and the delivery was hilarious
you`re spot on Unc , i`m a hater as i don`t like the disrespect , but i`ll watch every fight until he gets sparked the fuck out coz that`s what i want to see , and he`ll build a very lucrative career knowing what people like me want
At ,no point has he done anything actually disrespect he's just goofing around and having fun
@@champ1159 course he is its boxing not dancing like a twat competition
He is skillful as hell. Hope he to see him in championship fight
bro why isn't he the greatest thing in boxing rn tf. I'm not a boxing fan but I love mma, muay thai, and kickboxing, and seeing him be able to fight like that is amazing. He's getting so deep in his opponents heads and making them look like they're bad at their job, he's just chilling dancing and when he decides he's done he knocks the guy out. So entertaining
Brilliant. Period. Well.. at least until he gets KO. Boxing definitely need more Ben Whittaker, very entertaining. Two thumbs way up!!!
I like him, he’s fun. But he has to be able to carry it on to some degree as he moves up the skill levels. Otherwise it looks like he only does it against seriously inferior opponents
lol your conclusion was the same as mine, I should have waited before commenting
well, he's not gonna be EXACTLY the same, is he. Coz you can't take liberties like that against the best. But that's why propa said same "energy" rather than like same tactics. He'll still be cocky, confident, showboating and i reckon probably even a lot of the same body movements in the ring, free-flowing style.
But if people are saying he must do the exact same piss taking, looking away and shit, that's just not realistic...
the goal isnt to beat world champions while looking away. that would be absurd. the goal is to make him unlikely so people tune in to watch him get KO'd
