Comments Thread For: Dillian Whyte, Otto Wallin Agree To Terms For October 30 Fight At O2 Arena In London

Wallin is far better then any U.S heavyweight they would have matched him with .

I’d take Jarrod Anderson to stop the jafaican right now

This sounds like a well matched fight. Great to see that. Takes a lot of courage to have these kind of fights. Not used to that almost. This and Crawford-Porter are great fights. Looking forward to seeing these.

Very good and interesting fight. Wallin is not unknown now so we'll see if he can bring it without the element of surprise and its a serious step up for him. For Whyte it's another banana skin, so respect for once again not taking a soft touch. Wallin is tough and dangerous, but basic I feel. Whyte has those long arms and the power. I think Whyte edges it but it's a close intriguing matchup for sure.

I thought Whyte was going to make his big American splash? I guess he just wants to stay in the nice comfy protected home.....

He's fought in America. And since the UK has the power base in the heavyweight division right now, I guess it's the American fighters that are staying in their comfy protected home. Ruiz Jr and Arreola both turned it down. Ruiz Jr even turned down a highest payday after the AJ fights to fight Whyte in America.

I think Whyte takes Wallin out early.

BUT if Wallin can survive till late he sweeps the late rounds and has Whyte just trying to survive.

If Whyte survives, he wins on the cards if it's even remotely close.

Whatever...this is a very good fight no matter who wins.

Another tough fight for whyte

After he pipes wallin we will see guys moving the goal posts

whyte is decent

Should Whyte win it definitely reinforces his resume , Wallin should be Furys second best win really because stylistically he is much more of a problem for Fury then Wilder is . Wallin is a legit threat and has improved since Fury .

I like it Good Fight!

Wallin wins this, he will Box Circles around Whyte and make him Gas Out, very difficult Style he (Wallin) move so well for a Heavyweight and is very Skilled. Whyte don't have the tank the Chase Wallin if he can't catch him early

[BangEM]

Easy fight for Whyte. Wallin is tailor made for him to look great and show how much of a fraud Fury is.

Straight right down the pipe and left hook.

Surprised he picked a southpaw perhaps based on AJ fighting Usyk. I’m guessing he’s planning to fight Usyk once AJ sparks him.

[dan_cov]

Solid fight.
I won't make a prediction cause I'm not sure I've seen Whyte fight a southpaw, I can't think of any off the top of my head anyway.

[JakeTheBoxer]

Wow, a great fight.

But wrong business move for Whyte. Wallin is high risk. Arreola would be better choice. But again, Wallin is better fight.
