FULL FIGHT! Ben Whittaker vs Leon Willings | Light-heavyweight bout

Whittaker just an artist expressing himself. Whether he competes at the top or not lets just appreciate hes showing us something beautiful.

Some of the top tier UK coaches and trainers should consider taking Leon Willings under their wing. Take a look at the footage. That gent has genuine raw talent. Based on Boxrec, he doesn't seem to have an amateur record, but his movement, defense and stamina are on point.

It's crazy how much people hate Whittaker for showboating when that's what makes him entertaining to watch. People say he can't maintain this style as he keeps going against tougher opponents, but I think if he masters this style it can prove to be an asset. I'm not saying it won't be difficult, I can see this style of boxing confuse many boxers.

The level of hate directed towards Whittaker is bewildering. He’s at the start of his career, brilliant skill set, still a few areas to iron out, beating everyone so far with ease, including Willings here, who to be fair, is a very promising fighter in his own right. Ben is only in the second year of his pro career, give the kid time, he’s an exciting fighter.

Why are people so eager to tear someone down? The guy has a very entertaining style.. that’s what he’s trying to, entertain YOU.

The commentators on this are heavily against Ben Whittaker saying that he’s essentially boxing for Instagram views because he has a brave and confident style fair play to Leon but after round 5 he barely gives the fans any kind of fight and the fight relies on Ben’s pressure then they complain that he doesn’t show boat enough like can he breathe in peace?

Whittaker brought me into following boxing after I saw an edit of his on insta. Love to see his fights, I hope he has a great career!

Bunch of men praying on another man’s downfall, sad. I give Leon Willings his props, he’s a fighter who is better than people think, he’s got talent. Whitaker will be fine.

Whether Ben becomes a more traditional slick, defensive counterpuncher or if his dancing style makes a title fight comeback, I don't care as much. Just let the guy box and a make a name for himself. Whether he becomes a big thing or not will depend on how he moves up.

Fair play to Willings took it on short notice and gave a good account of himself

Ben is literally the reason I'm watching boxing lol he's so class so skillful watchin him fight is just pure entertainment

Willings is very good I hope he is not too disheartened

Ben is an absolutely legend and funniest boxer 💯 😂😂😂😂😂 he's definitely going to be the next Champion 🏆

Love Ben Whittaker. This was a great fight. And I loved Ben's intro. Willings was great too.

Willings was amazing but nothing will compare to Ben for me. Pure talent, and an entertainer. People can hate on him as much as they want but he's someone that we needed in this industry in boxing.

Technical fights like these are always the best

The Surgeon lost his scalpel.

I love Ben`s exceptional talent and style. An overwhelming performance.

Love the Whittaker entry fresh and creative🥊🥊🥊

"ooh shall I get him" nah you threw everything at him and he took it and kept coming and actually made a good fight of it. Willings massive props to that lad he's actually a real decent fighter and with the right backing could actually make a go at bigger things man. Considering he was supposed to be another knock over fighter he was making Whittaker look daft at times you can see he's got some real slick skills and can take a shot. Maybe his punch power is a little suspect but lot's of fighters make careers at British level without massive power.
