Espinosa gonna get that **** on Showtime if it happens lol
Whyte isn't under Matchroom though right? I thought he mentioned he only does fight by fight with Matchroom and he doesn't actually have a contract with them.
Will be interesting to see what he does if Joshua chooses the Miller route.
Of course, let's see how it goes.
Only time will tell.
as far as whyte is still under matxhroom, whyte will not fight with BT sport, that's out of it.
Whyte is big enough to sell out O2 arena on ppv, that's what wilder has been unable to do for over 39 fights.
Known in the US is just an extra or addition to the UK fighters not the ultimate.
It's that extra that will make AJ venture into the state. He's a unified champ, every other challenger will have to come to the UK. That's how it has been from inception. It can't be tilted now, it's a no no.

Yep. No heart is correct and always tried to be hard but he's not a champion caliber . Even after the fight he was looking like a who cares attitude.
With this kind of altitude, why would I be shocked that Ortiz KOed. I wonder how he became Ortiz best win, every decent fight will KO.
Whyte KO inside 8 flat.
I will bet my last money on a KO.
He's not headlining a U.K event If Haymon gets a Breazeale fight on BT in the states, we don't know what will happen ? Whyte is a O2 fighter he's not a Wembley guy, he's simply pricing himself out of the AJ fight. U.S notoriety is a good indication of one's overall value impact globally. Joshua is more known then Wilder and Fury combined that's why.

Jennings isn't a puncher and looked like he honestly didn't even try , he got himself up for a Klitschko fight that's about it. He's a ho hum fighter . I know one thing he cost me my perfect predictions so far.Ha
He fought like an amateur and I was truly and honestly disappointed.
I never gave Rivas a chance. Jennings had all the advantages.
Whyte had Parker to help him out there who just fought AJ. He's growing but let's not act like he can make money outside of AJ. He's virtually unknown in the states and fought in front of 50 people literally last time he was here. Without some sort of conflict to his opponent he won't be some mega star anytime soon , he's just balking right now.
What the fvvk is this unknown in the state. Who give a fvvk about that... Hez headlining event in the UK on ppv, that's all that matters.
Wilder himself couldn't headline an event in the state without Fury, so what the hell are you talking about?
Being ranked #1 isn't how you become mandatory. You become mandatory by winning a final eliminator.
Arum is demanding that Whyte be ordered to face Jennings to become WBO mandatory.
Jennings that just got beaten by a midget?
That fvvking Jennings is a pure bum. No heart at all.
Whyte thinks he's a major player now and his heads got way to big so I think his money demands will get in the way . Hope I'm wrong this would be intense fight .
What you talking about? Dillian Whyte is a PPV star in the UK. Headlined three very successful PPVs now. Deontay Wilder has headlined one. Tyson Fury two. Only one with more than Dillian is AJ.
Being ranked #1 isn't how you become mandatory. You become mandatory by winning a final eliminator.
Arum is demanding that Whyte be ordered to face Jennings to become WBO mandatory.
Jennings is likely going to fall down the rankings now. Who else does Arum have at HW? I know Ruiz Jr just left for PBC
Isn’t it just Jennings and Parker now?
He just did against Povetkin
No he didn't. The WBO announced prior to that fight that povetkin did not satisfy their mandatory and that they will have a mandatory challenger after .
Povetkin only settled Joshua's WBA mandatory requirements
Well, he's ranked #1 in the WBO so if he isn't the mandatory yet, he soon will be.

I don’t see this fight happening at all.
And is there a Breazele fight that I missed that has everyone so high on him? Every time I’ve seen him he’s had awful form, awful defense, and he eats counters all night.
I don't see it happening. I think Whyte is on the shortlist for Joshua even he somehow gets bypassed for April & I think Breazeale is on the shortlist for Wilder.
Doesn't really make much sense for either to take that fight for the money it'd likely be worth. I mean its no huge fight or anything. It'd be all risk to lose your title fight payday for lil upside
In fairness Breazeale has also talked about wanting a rematch with Joshua and Whyte has talked about wanting to face Wilder.
They've both mentioned that they're willing to risk their positions against each other and a win for Breazeale gets him closer to fighting Joshua, whereas a win for Whyte gets him closer to fighting Wilder.
I personally would love for this fight to happen.
Wilder v Fury II
Joshua v Miller
Whyte v Breazeale
^ That would be a fantastic collection of heavyweight fights.
Two top 10 contenders fighting each other sounds good. I'll pick Whyte by KO. To me Whyte is right behind AJ, Fury and Wilder as number 4 in the world.
