        The absolute weirdest thing in boxing fandom the last few years is this online Whyte spin doctoring. It makes no sense. Guy is a 2x PED cheat with NUMEROUS gift decisions. Been dropped by a who’s who of mid tier HWs. Was KTFO by a semi-retired 40 year old who was a boxer puncher, not a KO artist. If this were the biography of an American fighter, they would be a has been. But - UK. Where weirdo nationalism is still a thing.

          They have time to get a deal done and maybe Whyte gets around 35%, which sounds about right.

          Hopefully the fight takes place.

            Hearn will low ball. knowing fury wont take a fight for nothing. Go forward with the fight or pretend to waiting for fury to hand over the belt.

              Whyte has no leverage. Typically in these situations, the leverage the mandatory has is that he can voluntarily sell a rematch clause because if they go to purse bid, there's no rematch clause.

              But Fury doesn't want a rematch clause. Which might be foolish. But that's what he's decided. So Whyte has no leverage.

                What's funny in the fight that Whyte won vs Oscar Rivas. Whyte refused to have anyone from the comission or rivas team to watch the wraps. while rivas was forced to re-wrap, the known failed drug test. and unfair score cards where they gave Oscar his own belt in another weight class

                  Of course, but TR/Warren can still offer him more than the 20% split. The fight is a good one and should be happening next either way.

                    They offered 25% when there was a chance 80/20 could get overturned. Now that 80/20 is final, Top Rank's offer is going to decrease.

                    Meanwhile, Hearn would love to win a purse bid for DAZN. So what incentive is there really for him to give control of the fight to Top Rank? Going to be very tough to make a deal.

                      Eddy has Whyte on starvation wages, but the WBC is being hard on Dillian. OK.
