Good for him. Naz was a World champion at 21, one of the hardest punching featherweights of all time. Wishing Whittaker all the best and a successful career.

More like emanuel augustus. They way he moves is pretty much down to a tee.

Let Whittaker find his own path. People criticise for the sake of it. He's got a brilliant style. A fighter on my list to watch live. 🥊🥊🥊🥊

Most talented boxers out there right now. People will always try to destroy your legacy or compare you to legends. Future champ

Hs more of an emanuel augustus!

Great lad Ben Whitaker multi talented hope he goes to the very top

Love the way Whittaker fights. Nas is my favourite boxer of all time but needs to show Ben love because he has a similar and he does it well

A superbly talented young man. I personally love watching him fight. Let’s get behind him! 🇬🇧

Very clever fighter, He got the skills, The tools, And he is working on the boxing I Q. I think he is going to do big things

Here here. Don’t ever change Ben Whittaker. I love your style and swag‼️🥊

Given that Ben is open that he has ADHD I think you can appreciate that he channels his additional focus, energy and anxiety in a positive way, it comes out in the form of showmanship, don’t change.

Ben is cocky on the outside but he's mellow underneath. Nas is cocky inside and out. Ben's grown on me ever since he started respecting his opponents after humiliating them; that's OK and he is just so amusing to watch.

Dont know about sexy but love watching him box, great style, nice to see someone take a chance and not play it safe

It’s like saying Naz was copying Hector Camacho or Paez. Whitaker is his own man.

Pure excitement at this stage of his career but after a few more fights we'll see the polished article Ben is Brilliant for British boxing

I LIKE WATCHING BEN YOU GUYS GOT IT GOOD IN UK BOXING 🥊 ITS ALWAYS EASY TO PUT LAD DOWN TRY GOING IN RING 💍

Keep doing you Ben you have got your own style ❤🙏👍👋👏💪

Why is prince Naz hating on Ben he should be ashamed of himself.Even if Ben is really emulating him he should be proud of that than hating

nazs style was influenced by emmanuel augustus a little bit i think. even wore the same leapord shorts

One of the best boxing Ben 🥊🥊🥊

3:48 is where the video begins!

Why does he look like Ross Noble in the thumbnail?

I want to see him fight 🥊 someone at a high level. Let’s see how he looks then.

He's a good fighter keep supporting good fighters instead of finding fault

Jeez, I like Whittaker, especially the showboating, he is good, but he is 26 years old, & he has ONLY had 7 fights, he needs to be much, much, busier, or his career is going to be over before he realises, i dont think that he is World class, because to much time has passed, & he needs to move through the ranks quickly, time is not on his side, he has got 6 years to make it happen, because it won happen after the age of 32, get busy Benn.

I think Ben whittaker is a class act, its not really a act, it's Ben being himself, Alot of people have a fear to be their self but when Ben fights it is him, its not a mask, He will one day become a world champion, Don't get me wrong people with mental health do mask, I mask, I suffer from bipolar and it is debilitating and I can be myself but it depends who I am around, its a slow progress but when I feel comfortable I am absolutely a top guy, I am genuinely a kind thoughtful man but I have to fight with the moods and the highs and the lows, we have good hearts and all we want is world peace and everyone to be happy and for all people to just have fun in this world because at the end of the day we are all living in the same world and let's just have fun, this reality as it is now with all wars going on and crazy men that rule countries we just don't need people like that, keep up the brilliant fighting Ben just keep being you. Positive vibes only.

Ben v W Hutchinson or Ben v Dan Azeez or Ben v L Arthur

Ben whittaker is the greatest of all time

Special skills .....God is great.....

Keep going Ben

I watched him in the Olympic games, he wasnt as flash as he is in the pro ranks, perhaps its a conscious decision to act up, gain a fanbase, an all that, but hes super talented

There will only ever be one Nas

Nice guy good luck to you world champ I hope

Seen a few comments on here about how he disrespects opponents? He's pretty level-headed and humble in interviews and pressers. As for in the ring, it's just his style, and I, for one, love it. Im sure it'll change as his opponents improve in class. But i hope not....

I like this guy

Naz didn't say anything negative in the original interview. You're trying to take things out of context and make things into what they're not and stir things between naz and Benue Whitaker. Naz is someone that he's always looked up to. It's quite sad that you did this to Ben Whittaker and put him on the spot like this. Naz wasn't dissing him at all.

U know what I’m sick and tired of media casting criticism at folks that absolutely don’t deserve it.. I luv to watch bens fights he’s exciting because he’s unpredictable.. get over it you muppets and leave a talented boxer to do his own thing.. why is it even when u win in this poxy country there’s always someone who wants to pick holes

Ben from my city he watched my amture fight

Ben is young, talented, sexy and confident. I just hope he doesn't come to Matchroom. Eddie keeps getting our young stars battered ☹

What a load of nonsense, Naz should be supporting this excellent young fighter! For the record, Naz copied Eubank’s ring entry!

Best boxer on the planet 🥊💯

The man who blocks punches with his face? 😂 Ben Whittaker blocks punches and actually knows how to box and is an Olympic medalist. How can Naseem even be mentioned in the same sentence when he doesn’t know the very basic fundamentals of boxing lol.

If you could be as good as naz what’s wrong with that like your style me Ben am a fan anyway great style

So what Ben can do whatever he wants He just enjoying it Why we always got to create hate and controversy for headlines

Whatever you do on the world stage, not just boxing. You are damned if you do, and damned if you don't. As long as people are talking about you, whether good or bad, you are doing something right, if money is what you want. Look at Tyson Fury, he says daft thing, he has his haters and critics, but he has made more money than all of them. His great great grandkids will all be born wealthy, even if Tysons own kids dont go out ahd earn a wealthy living. In this day and age, and the way people can express their oppinions through social media, you have to have a thick skin if you are even slightly famous. Good luck to this kid, he seems like a good lad, even though his show-boating is a little annoying. It will get people watching his fights, some, because they want to see him get knocked out.

Ben does his thing he has similarities with Naz, you can’t pretend this style either it’s you or it’s not so I would say he is not copying anyone

forget naz he was a irrutated fool but ben is much loved and more entertaining i just love his style he fight nothing like naz he was cocky ah irritateding but ben is very entertaining

His next opponent is about to make him look elite

Nonsense. The last fight for area title was a struggle. The other guy landed some lovely shots.

great talent and if he showboats against top level boxers that’s great but mocking journeymen i don’t like.

Looks like Andy is Ben Whitiker biggest fan.

Why they doing Ben like that. That’s muggy from talksport

Going to be interesting to see him go 12 rounds dancing like that with very little power in either hand.

If anybody his showboating reminds me of mvp.

If naz says youre copying u dont argue, u just admit it n start paying homage to him, imo.

Whitaker is a worse liar than he is a boxer!

Ben's the future, Hamed just clinging on by talking rubbish. His day's long gone, leave the future to this generation😎

His style is 40% Emmanuel Augustus/ 25% Naz (he says he never knew about Naz but his dad bloody did and would have videos! ; ) / 20% Thomas Hearns... and then himself, lol. Also he could have done his 'Adidas tribute' without replicating Naz's stylings on the night - so that's BS too. Also, Naz was *destroying* area level guys (so not sure what point he made about Naz's early career opponents, lol).

Crusty the clown

I adore the way you fight. Such an odd word to use there. Mind you he does support utd, so ya know.

Ben is after some free munchies 😅

Great entertainmener, but wont know how good he is until he steps up.

Blair cobbs ppl hate his style

better boxer . nadeem you've had your day- push off

and never will be or as good

That's a bit Rich from Naz because if Ben was one of his brothers then he wouldn't have said such a thing, We all know they not one of us Big up my non muslim brother Ben Whittaker.

Here you go Ben, here's your idol slagging you off, what do you think?

Needs to find a way to get more power in them shots because its looking a little pillow fisty right now.

Bro stop it g. You are deffo trying to be better than Mas and if anything he is one of your inspirations. Don’t let ignorance be your downfall

Naz copied Emanuel Agustus, that's not his style.

Goldstein loves a journey man getting distracted shows who he is as a person

Naz' career was overrated and I hope Ben Whittaker does not listen to advice from Naz who ultimately under achieved.

Won't have enough power to mix it at world level. Skills, yes. Power, no.

Ben is a great boxer he has a very good ring iq not sure about the dancing though I watch boxing for knockouts if I wanted to watch dancing I’d go to a strip club

Bit defensive... Excuse the pun.

Nas copied Aaron Prior the original drunken master in some ways maybe a little inspiration just maybe

No hate peoples.. Naz was the man .. until he faught .. apparently old Barrera.. jus saying . Good luck

talkSport trying to stir he never really anything

Ben Shittaker wont last at world level

Naseem sound like an arrogant all over himself old man, he need to be reminded by Antonio Barreira to humble him a little bit 🙄

Nas tribute, then when he realised that nas thinks he needs to improve, he slags nas off. Difference is, nas knocked them all out early doors. This guys a joke, hope he improves and becomes humble.

mediocre fighter in my op. don't see him being a household name

this guy was exposed by an area level fighter... all the showboating was literally done back to him, many moments of the fight bens opponent was showboating on him, ben will be found out massively at high level, he wont be able to do any of his foolishness even at british title level or he will get laid out cold.

He will never be at nas hamed's level, especially if he cant beat an area level fighter but is more concerned with trying to showboat. Time to grow up

Your a million miles away from being like Naz. 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Naz is 1 of the best ever Ben is knowhere near the comparison is nonsense he’s arrogant and obnoxious he wants get some respect for his opponents and stop all the messing about he’d get far more support

Christ died for sinners

Ben is so unlikeable I can't wait to see him not become world champ

Yeah cause Naz was a complete original 😂

Naz the most overrated boxer ever

Another bum that is going nowhere . Soon as he meets any top boy he's gone 😮

Naseem is a massive hater!

Wit till he actually fights someone decent, won't be dancing then.
