Wolverhampton's Ben Whittaker earning the right to fight in style he wants
For a boxer with just four professional bouts under his belt, Ben Whittaker is making plenty of headlines.
Not all of them complimentary.
“Boxing fans slam Whittaker for ‘making a mockery of the sport’” was the story on the UK’s most-read national newspaper site last Sunday morning.
Whittaker’s offence? Showboating during the previous night’s win over Vladimir Belujsky.
It’s fair to say Whittaker’s style isn’t for everyone. The Darlaston light heavyweight would be the first to admit that himself.
