Comments Thread For: Hearn: If Whyte Loses, Goal of World Title Could Be Out Forever

[Monty Fisto]

Whyte could have had a shot at multiple belts by taking the AJ fight... The one where Joshua imploded as well.

If he never ends up ever fighting for a world title he can look back on that decision in the small hours when he can't sleep.

Hearn in a weeks time .."were looking at a rematch by June ,because Whyte was ahead on points and Povetkin was about to quit when he was knocked out in round 3..

If Chisora is still in game with 10 losses, 3 Losses will not be a problem for Whyte.

But I guess Hearn is tired of Whyte and his avoiding AJ title shot.

Sure, but Hearn's not talking about Whyte just being in the game. Chisora isn't in line for a title shot any time soon. Call him a gatekeeper, a journeyman, a trial horse, whatever, but Chisora's no championship contender in 2021. I don't hink Hearn is overstating the significance of this fight for Whyte. If he loses again to old man Povetkin, he probably wouldn't be in line for a title shot for at least two years.
