This is what the sport needs. People will pay money to see guys like this! UFC really took a lot of eyes off of boxing but if we had a higher number of people that were entertaining to watch, the sport could easily get back into the lime-light!
Exactly, he's def what the sport needs. shit like this is fun to watch
The problem is, if or when an exciting guy like this loses to another good fighter, then promoters and even boxing fans will claim the guy is a bum. Look at how they treated Erroll Spence all of a sudden. Can’t blame guys for protecting their 0 losses
🎯🎯🎯🎯
Nah. Just make the best fight the best. Tank and Canelo may seem fun to watch but their antics and hilarious match making makes them unbearable to watch.
Top fighters fighting each other is more exciting than matches where you pretty much know the outcome.
UFC has too many eye pokes and when people like Masvidal appear to cover themselves in grease?
Bisping moaning about TRT Belfort when somehow? He used to fight at 205? People putting their hands on the floor so you can't kick/knee them and a rule set designed to make college wrestlers do well
Nothing like a real fight. 190 or so rules. Which is fine. But why sell it UFC as a fight when you can't even push. Also suspect title wins and changes. And past history of MMA is riddled with fixed fights and unfair matchups.
I like proper boxing and Whittaker turning his back and hitting with the non knuckle part of the glove. That isn't boxing
Also he got found out on a DAZN show against a decent journeyman. So really it's a show rather than sustance
Ref gotta chill. There's no rule against showboating while boxing. Some fighters just fight better that way 🤷🏿♂️
But there is one against turning your back and hitting with the inside of your gloves.
the one that made sense that the ref stepped in was after the spin, since youre not allowed to turn your back to your opponent, but i agree that the rest wasnt necessary
He's just an old fart who never had a day of fun in his life. And nobody else is going to have a bit of fun on his watch if he can help it.
Agreed. Couple of minor infringements, but that Ref was like annoying add breaks during a good film!
@@fridge-finsDead right mate, it's the same as ducking your head, ur not meant to duck the head "looking' at the floor, the face must be facing forward when you bob a punch, but they let it go in pro boxing...
Whittaker was in no danger when he spun around, but the Ref wanted to get his head on TV...
He boxed well here, less showboating..
Threw some nice crisp shots, especially the left rips to the liver, regardless of his opponent, there's a lot to like.
That quick little smack on the back of the head was funny as hell😂😂😂😂
czcams.com/video/PnEaz6s-zj0/video.htmlsi=5gxanxILSb01SVOp&t=212
back of the head is illegal
The 3 Stooges
Dudes gonna get rocked one of these days
Back of the head was funny and intentionally not hard it was a goof but the ref still had to say sum
That was the most impressive shit I’ve ever seen in boxing. Bro was in the zone, reading him like a book. Transcending movement, invincible.
Plenty of showboating fighters in the past who never made it to the top, this is a fight against lower rank boxer. You can't really be impressed till he's fighting the top ten, if he ever makes it that is. Faster hands or a hard hitter could end him. The top ten is a different ball park for every weight class. He's currently rank 176 btw
Muhammad Ali?
damn chill
@@Kurry34
He will get destroyed when he actually fights someone decent
bro this guy just had 7 pro matchs, the skill gap between on that level are huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugeee, that's why he can do this because he felt the huge skill differences from the beginning
the crowd literally BOOED the ref! lmao
Ref really did his best to ruin the fight... I watched it live... if that was tyson fury, the ref would have been applauding... pathetic
He should be investigated maybe he got paid @@MrBlaqgold
Come on the ref just don't want anybody get hurt..give him a break..good job ref!
@@nashchi Kitchen!
i dont agree with you all because if you guys were being humiliated this way you would want the ref to stop his shenanigans. Yeah he was entertaining but i agree with the ref.
He got the onepiece white beard back tattoo you know he animated 🔥
He's using advance observation haki! Hahaha
im dying lmaoooooooooooooooo@@danzerako
Broooooo lol 😂
Once he get a belt, he gonna use conquerors haki 😂
Bro showing off his Observation Haki LMAO
Speechless! Irreverence, precision, strength, cinematic dodges... Ben Whittaker is a great boxer! 🥊💥
He'll be destroyed by his first real opponent. High guard walking pressure is never going to work here.
@@whatilearnttoday5295it be bums like u who discredit a boxers greatness u don't do boxing or know it
Great? He's fighting nobodies 😂😂😂 wait until he fights a real boxer.
I can't get Ben's reach advantage
@@ivand0007let his frank go😂
being a member of the whitebeard pirates, i say dude has a great amount of observation haki
He wouldn’t let him go Drunken style on him 🤦🏾♂️😂😂😂😂😂
That's prince naseem style drunken style boxing is emaul Augustus it's a tad bit different
3:31 That bop kills me everytime lol. Listen this guy is pure entertainment, yes eventually he will get clapped but for now why not enjoy the skills. He's good for boxing man
fr, he playing with fire. But making it look good so far lol
I wondered if anyone else understood that. Won't be long.
Reminds me of prince naseem
That was beautiful to watch, hope him the best!
Ali played with fire too xD
dude I'm an instant fan, dayyymm he sure is a onepiece fan. the guy has observation haki activated 😂😂😂
The fighting is great but the whitebeard tatt instantly made me a fan lol
Bro become 1st division captain of the Whitebeard pirates :D
imagine if he had the A S C E tat too
He uses kenbushoku haki
@@baruklintheng6250 kenbusho haki??
@@kentekuzan he has naruto, sasuke, itachi and ippo tatted on his left arm
Ben D. Luffy 😂😂
Shades of Emanuel Augustus, crazy skill! Time to step up now to be really tested.
too early
@@allenhzghzdgzd600ya no point he’s only 6 fights in. Let’s him m get used to his pro style a bit longer.
The refs in the UK suk.. they know nothing about style, charisma, uniqueness, showmanship, and entertainment.. Lame af!! This is how Agustus fought and never was warned, or pointed for his uniqueness.. Yeah... get this ref outta here... lame ass..
And this is why we end up with fighters like Adrien broner
I agree. Shades of Emanuel and also the Prince. As he gets better this guy could be a problem.
This guy perceives time in a totally different way to the average person.
His reaction time seems like a quality that only a small minority of people are gifted with. Hope he goes all the way!
Men the tattoo on the back! He's the 1st commander of white beard pirates! 🤣
the sound quality of this video is insane
bro i thought the same thing like damn I got immersed
shit i guess we really in 2024😂
@@iluvSin Lol that made me laugh.
i haven't listened to anything like that since ufc in the covid period
I never heard of him before this...this dude is bad af!!! He was having fun wit it! Boos for the ref!!!
same, googled him and it says he's an olympic silver medalist.
Chill. His opponent was 10-13 😂
My first time too!!!! Loving him!!!! Excellence!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@realdyltheboxer5087you fight who you get lil bro. You nobody
@@Chuida17 we all somebody.
My new "Drunken Master"🤣😂🤣😂 love this 👐🏾🙌🏾
I'm most impressed with the crisp counter punching and body work. The showmanship is just gravy!
Digging a little deeper, this kid was a silver medalist olympian.
He also was devastated when he lost and said "you don't win silver - you lose gold"... That's a good champ mentality.
Additionally, he just got picked up to train under Sugar Hill...
This guy is one to keep an eye on...
the surgeon-english boxer from some small town in the midlands is 6-0 obviously beaten nobodies so far ,massive potential
@@don__hector7845 He still has to have about 10 more fights before coming to The Americas. UK boxing is garbage.
@@angelgregio only 26 no rush!
@@don__hector7845 even worse. This is prime time. 26 should already be 15 and 0.
@@angelgregio only been pro 18months
It’s prize fighting. These guys are entertainers and Ben is doing that. As long as he is respectful after the bell or in a knockdown then let him play.
💯 agree... It's more than that... its his fighting style. Penalising the guy for fighting to a syncopated rhythm is pathetic... thats how they ruined Emmanuel Augustus career... hating a$$ no rhythm having dusty rusty refs ruin the sport!
@@MrBlaqgold i think its because they dont like unpredictablility. stuff like this would throw any and everyone off because it's super evasive and just different. people hate when you deviate from the standards because everbody is so comfortable with the same thing.
@@stealthycoreIt's entertainment. And I doubt most people would be thrown off by it. By the sounds of it the crowd was anything but thrown off with Whittaker's movements.
And a lot of boxers showboat anyways. Ali is a prime example of this. And many more have as well. So why can't Whittaker?
Agree… and he doesn’t have low blows, no hits after the bell and when the opponent went to his knee he didn’t try for some sloppy finishing move just backed away and danced. Pure entertainment and skill
@@stealthycorecan't be having clean shots and never being touched how's the judges supposed to throw one sided fights man that dude can touch any liver when and where he so pleases haha it's refreshing to see those rare fighting instincts the guy knows where he's at in all dimensions and he looks like he's not just an athlete that'll age poorly when his legs go he's fluid stylistically
Great performance never seen something like him keep up the great work 👍 👏 👌
I’ve never liked to watch boxing but this is amazing, Ben make it so entertaining and fun to watch, what a great fighter
This guy is now my favorite boxer!
He definitely could get me to start watching boxing again.😊
Let´s watch together!!!
Yea you two can take turn sitting on each other. Lol
Hes just tryna make friends 😭@@LincolnJamesHeathrowIII
Jjjj@@joaquiniglesias2201
Your favorite?😂😂😂 Must be your first watch 😂😂😂
Star in the making. He got mad skills, deep bag of tricks and of course the FUNDAMENTALS. He's just way ahead against these C class fighters. Time to step up the competition! 🌟✅
He needs to start fighting B level fighters now,let's see if he can entertain us still.
Nah maybe c class former champs with experience he's just a prospect with 6 fights.@@tenidrxpz9826
What makes you say that? This guy is trash he doesn’t throw a punch with any balance. Hes fight tomatoe cans, if he fights anyone of note they will leave him on the canvas.
@@joegugliotta8988 yeah a olympic medalist is trash just because you don't know what drunken style is
@@joegugliotta8988He's doing it on purpose lol.
Everybody wants to talk about the brilliance of Willie Pep but doesn’t let my man Whittaker do his thing. Let the man dance baby 🥊
Hands down best fight I've seen in a while
Incredible movement. The art of not getting hit.
Definitely 💯hit👊🏾and not get hit. Not hit nd don't hit nothing either
I've been watching Whitaker, and I have yet to find a soft spot in his fighting style, his tempo is crazy, his speed is unbelievable, foot work is on point, his angles are sick...this dude is a monster.
lol.. lets see him do this with a pressure fighter with a high guard.
He’s fighting anesongib
He can swat too
He has plenty of soft-spots, simply not against high guard pressure guys. They're feeding him easy opponents.
@@RottenProfitsPressure with high guard is exactly what they're feeding him. He just puts his glove in their face, holds it there and they're blind.
Zero challenge.
That was fun to watch 🔥🔥🔥🔥👊🏽
I think this guy is really special something new in boxing never before seen. Only time will tell
3:42 nice shot🔥🔥🔥
respect the ace white beard pirates tattoo that mans got conquerors haki
is not conqueror is observation haki😂
Insane. This guy is the real deal. Energising boxing afresh. Crowds Crowds love the Alis and Whitakers of this world.
This is what boxing needs, super entertaining fighter
This is some of the best camera work I've ever seen for boxing. I can't stand it when the camera angle doesn't show the footwork.
A true entertainer 🧨
This is how I fight ! It makes the person you fighting more frustrated and you gain more confidence because of it
I just discovered him today on one IG clip..Iam a loyal Whitakker fan from today..He is so entertaining
There will never be another Prince Nas nor another Drunken Master, Emmanuel Augustus, but this fella is carving out something cool. Hope he carries on having fun and being entertaining.
I mean with the drunken style it self there’s always room for the next generation to create there own form of it and be just as great as both these guys u mention. That’s what beautiful about the art of boxing or martial arts in general…
The White Beard tattoo on his back is effing 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dude freakin dancing in the ring lmao I saw someone edit this to music. Dude gonna mess around and evolve all boxers with moves like this. This was a treat to watch he’s gonnna get but$$ into seats for sure.
OMG I love your shorts babyyyyyyyy literaly I´m sweating
More videos like this without commentary is beautiful; just the sound of leather hitting flesh
Whittaker is going places. Best performance of the night.
but he mus step up competition. He has barely 6 fights with tomato cans and he is 26 already.
yeah going on the floor if he trys this with anyone in the top 20
@@Kondzio717 Better late than never
This is what boxing needs!!
Those body shots! I could feel them myself!
That’s the hardest boxing gloves and pants I’ve seen that’s real unique and 1️⃣ of a kind with the skeletal bones 🦴
Yeah the fit is so clean. He should do a green glow one for the entrance.
The ref was tripping.😌
Nope, every one of those warnings was justified. I don’t think you know the rules of boxing
Shuffling your feet like Ali is against the rules? he was stopped for that alone.
@@Icyking510 Whittaker spins & turns his back to his opponent, which a ref will always warn you for. Backfist punches are illegal, also called for. Hits to the top of the head are, even a soft tap, are illegal
@BobbyLeeMom I'm not talking about when he turned his back I could understand that. This was just him shuffling and the ref hating
@@Icyking510 slow it down, that’s exactly where he threw the backfist; that’s how fast he is, you didn’t even see
The breakdancing was 🔥🔥
Was fun to watch!
Damn this dude is just mesmerizing to watch! The footwork, reflexes, hand speed, slick... Sweet Science Poetry!!!
Whittaker got the will of D, carrying the legacy of Ace on his back!
Il est génial...ce mec réinvente la boxe et ses mouvements sont vraiment solidement étudié. La classe.
Bro do be fighting with advance observasion haki and rocking the white beard tat on the back! 🔥🔥
This performance was special. I got memories of prime naseem.... even the hating ass ref took me back 😂😂
Except Naseem wasn't a wanker.
I don’t I have ever seen one dude miss sooo much in a fight 🎉🎉
That’s due to Whitaker’s speed and agility.
The tattoo makes a lot of sense, I was wondering how his observation haki was so good XD
Sweet baby jesus! 🤯 this was some remarkable shyt
I just realized that is the whitebeard jolly Roger on his back I was already a fan of his but now I am a super fan.
yeah and the fact that he's a member of the whitebeard pirates explains his observation haki XD
Ref said "Nahhhhh, not the side Jab, slow it down there buddy" 😭😭 #viral
Impresionante, el verdadero ULTRA INSTINTO ✨
Those reflexes are unreal
Wasn't he having a good time?. His energy was up. It was beautiful to watch 👍
If you were fighting someone who presented zero challenge and no threat, you'd have fun too.
I like the guy he's got flare and charisma in the ring landed some dangerous body shots
That bop to the back of his opponents head was just nasty work! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Whitebeard tat is dope
Ben Whittaker is hopefully the new "Drunken Master", taking over the mantle piece from the wonderful Emmanuel Augustus. It would be awesome to see him do incredibly well & be able to entertain us with that exotic style.
If he perfect it omg he going to take over he is on my radar now i am a fan.... I have been waiting for somebody to train in this style🎉
Emmanuel Augustus fought anyone. On a moments notice. They're picking easy fights for this guy.
Man, I would be pissed if I was a boxer and could not hit that guy! He's a blast to watch! Very impressive!
I hope he never loses; fantastic fighter.
Just what British boxing needs. Some personality, entertainment and knockouts. He can attract lots of different eyes
This is what boxing needs.
Nahhhhh Boy defense is ELITE💯🔥
Ref needs to loosen up his g string
🤣🤣🤣🤣 then his tampon might fall out
Some of it was too much. At one point, he looked like he was about to throw a knee but of course he was just dancing or something. I saw it and the ref flagged it momentarily. He spun himself around to where his back was facing the other fighter, a big no no in boxing. You can't be allowed to do it just because you're playing around. And eventually, he's going to pay the price of doing that stuff. Too much of it is not funny. I'm good when a boxer just does it once or twice in a fight but this guy is filling up his whole fight with foolishness.
@@KuttyJoeloosen up your g string punk
@@anigerianninja4577 The fans are there for what???
@@KuttyJoe to be entertained and have fun.
Referee is a waste man
Dude right here, is the next big thing!
Don’t let that ref call Ben fights ever again
My boy got the Zesty fight styles straight from West Hollywood 😂
Ben Whittaker is the coldest prospect in the world 🥶 Future superstar!
Great example of Greatness in it’s early stages.
Dayum. Enjoyed the entertaining fight.
I love his style
This is gonna be interesting to see how his career plays out. His speed and the way he places his shots is awesome for his height and weight.
Will be interesting to see if they ever give him anyone who is in any way a challenge. They're picking people he can't possibly be threatened by.
Fighting skills great
Dancing skills exceptional
He's got talent, no doubt about it. Reminiscent of Tommy Hearns.
Been keeping an eye on him since the Olympics, definitely a good young British prospect.
He's got the same kind of punching style and speed and hearns but with ali head movement and the instincts of the drunken master absolutely incredible
Waiting to see him matched with anyone other than a high-guard pressure dude.
Ref's first warning: makes sense, don't turn your back
Second warning: I kinda get it but that didn't require a seperation
third warning: boy if you don't
One piece fans assemble 👒👒👒
Yuu huuuuu... maybe he is marco the phoenix in real life if we look his tatto and hair cut
✋
Quel plaisir à regarder, formidable boxeur.
Holy fack, his dodging was insane!! Even when backed into the corner I almost had the feeling he kinda wanted to be their to display his level of dodging.
For every boxer who practice this way of fighting. There is always a Barrera carefully watching from a distance waiting for a right moment.
Sucks how fighters can’t show boat n freestyle he’s having fun out there and winning with style points and he’s in his zone that’s why he was so comfortable wish it was more tolerated
The ref stopped him every time he did something illegal, what are you talking about?
@@ImaBobbyMuddahe actually did nothing illegal. A he did was show boat
@@elijahpiere5324 a ref will always warn you if you show your back to the opponent, which he did. He threw a backfist, an illegal shot. & he hot him on the top of the head, although light, still an illegal shot. Learn the rules of boxing before commenting
I want to see more of his unique creative ability
Brother, you and Benavidez could make a hell of show.
MATRIX
Da ref was definitely hatin.
Nope, the ref knows what he’s doing. You clearly don’t know the rules of boxing
The way Ben moves is just so intelligent- he moves like he has played this level 1000 times before.
Boxing needs this!
Dude, seriously talented peripheral vision, liquid movement, and footwork. Just slow mo the video at 3:44. Amazing. How have I not heard of him.
Holy Shit
The reff getting salty over that spin, he ruined it for the future highlight reels 😂
