He is not just showboating, this guy has great head movement, footwork and amazing overall IQ in the ring. He can really box and make it entertaining.💪🏾💯
3:45 was GENIUS! He slipped a few punches and made it look like he was reteating... but his feet actually switched from orthodox to southpaw. that change in body language instantly confused the other guy who walked straight into the "jab hand" which instantly switched into the power hand because he went southpaw... I've seen hundreds maybe thousands of fights - but i've never seen that move 😬

Most of yall 9-5 employees could never comprehend that mindset. The prince got memed by a bunch of pay check to pay check average people while he laughed his way to the bank as a legend in the sport. Im sure all the brokies who made memes really hurt his feelings.
@@nashbullet3213 that is the point tho..Naseem was a champion and held the belt for a while, this dude isn’t a champion so no matter how good of a entertainer he is if he can’t beat the top dogs it won’t matter..Ppl liked Naseem cause he actually was winning with his style even against the big names
@@humphrey_bulldoguk22 the thing that im excited even more about is how he only showboats when he knows his opponents is slowing down, he doesnt showboat when his still not sure what how capable his opponent is, ALSO his coach on the ring side makes sure that ben focuses on hurting his opponent and not to showboat too much. all in all the reason why this kind of style hasnt worked that much is cause the people doing it got too much ego and forgets that their main goal is to drop their opponent not to showboat, i have high hopes on ben in giving this style another chance of spotlight just like how the prince and Ali did it on their era
@@michaelka3071 well said, I absolutely respect the "do my job" professional.... but boxing is crying out for a entertainer...a showboater...this youtube boxing thing is a disgrace!!....I dunno what my point even was lol but well said and I completely agree with you on the point of not showboating till he has worked the opponent out.
@@humphrey_bulldoguk22 watch his entire match bro you would appreciate it even more, first round he starts serious and working out his opponent then after that they slow down and he starts baiting them to do a heavy punch where he dodges it and then after that he starts to notice they slow down so he showboat a lil and then he starts going all out in showboating until his coach tells him to get back on track, its amazing and i hope he continues that momentum
Some people can't understand the fact that what he is doing completely distracts his opponents then he surprises them with a great punch. For me this is not a showboating but a great tactic for the fight and in addition he is really entertaining the people who are watching.
Ever since I first seen Roy Jones jr I've been into showboating fighters, Anderson Silva, Prince Naseem and Micheal Venom page is my current favorite fighter . I will definitely be tuning into Ben's fights now
He is doing he from the start of the bell to the end. It is not like he only show boat when he is on the lead. Props to Ben. It creates distraction to the opponent which is part of the mind games of boxing.
I saw a clip of this dude on Instagram not too long ago. I didn't know he was about that life at all times, lol. One of the craziest boxers I've seen in modern times.
If Ben does carry power then he's going far. It just depends who's left in the division in 2 years time when he's fighting the best, and if he's still showboating like that against the best and hurting them then you can only take your hat off to him. It is showboating overload but at the same time, the footwork and technical shots are top banana!
Смотреть на бои Бена, можно не отрываясь.для простых людей это шоу,для любителей бокса это удовольствие ,для профи,это боевой танец,свободный и выверенный.
What a talent Ben W is 😊 brilliant to watch a bit of Pernell and Naz mixed in. Luv it ! One comes along every 20 years like Ben hope he goes to the TOP . He s already the Saudis favourite boxer so he s made financially too and deserves every penny !
I imagine a fight between him and Muhammad Ali. Of course it's not between us, but it would be a fight between smart and strategic giants. The man is brave!
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!
@@shinsukecorbin425 Is that what your extensive experience watching boxing tells you? That even though most fighters have at least one loss, as soon as they got that first loss, no one pays attention to them anymore? 😆
@@scarrington you comparing him to greats which is dumb..He hasn’t fought anybody yet so when he finally does fight a big name star and he losses ppl aren’t gonna be as impressed..Look at any of the fighters that had this style since you know so much, all of them vanished after their first loss except Naseem and even he didn’t fully recover once he lost
I watched this guy the other day after the arsenal match. He definitely has talent. The showboating plays with people's emotions. You'll make mistakes when your emotional
😂 I know like don’t get me wrong it’s ok but this is what boxing needs it’s a stretch. lol they’ll probably say Jake Paul is that next boxing super star also 😂
Man it's almost like if the people who aren't watching boxing says this is what it needs for them to watch boxing... It almost sounds like that's what boxing needs for new people to watch 😲😲😲😲
He's easy to beat but they all just focus too much on his face forgetting to work his body and mount pressure on him. They give him too much time to recompose and rest. Work his ribs and tire his arms he'll get frustrated and make mistakes and that's it.
It's beautiful to watch. The problem with this fight style, is that, one, you can't make any mistakes or barely any mistakes, because once you get caught with your head on weird positions like that, it's night, especially if you are fighting a power puncher who can time you or trick you well. Two, once your reflexes slow down, and trust me, they will eventually, you are going to get knocked out to another dimension. Unless you have great basics to go back to and can fight like this and in a more traditional style. Whittaker better do.
The guy is fast, no doubt. Add in his peripheral vision, reflexes, & speed. Ben could be a problem for many boxers. So damn entertaining! One of my newer favorite boxers.
He having fun in the ring. He enjoys it. Can hate him cause he picked this style cause he entertaining. He is fun to watch. He can actually box. Key to boxing is not getting hit but hit the other guy.
Boxing is about fun and hilarious joy, even though,the fighters display aggressive composure to win against opponents And so,Ben Whitaker is an epitome of entertainer and a sweet warrior.His showboating style makes.him fantastic in the ring.
A dancing boxing... What a technique he got .his movement his flexing his confidence are just 😲....he was enjoying his sport this Is not cocky this is confident.
Commentator said it best "you gonna love him or u gonna hate him but you'll definitely watch him"
Dont like show offs so I for one wont pay to watch him. If your a great fighter you dont need to disgrace your appoinent

Not to mention his endurance to pull all that off each round is quite good.

A breath of fresh air to see someone emulate the style of Emmanuel Augustus.

Doing it Better and smarter without taking punches back
