    Which heavyweights would take the 20% to fight Fury that Whyte doesn't want?

    Whyte knows there is no chance he can beat Fury and is trying to grab as much money because he knows this will be his last shot at a big fight.

    Ruiz would probably step in if he is in descent condition which is usually the problem with him. He aggressively pursued the Joshua fight after Ortiz and maybe a few others turned it down because they had no confidence in beating Joshua. Ruiz gave fans a tremendous fight in beating Joshua and now fans are upset with him because of his inactivity. The window may be open again for Ruiz just like it was for Joshua.

    Joshua could challenge Fury now that the Whyte fight is probably off. If Joshua was really confident he could beat Fury now is the time to challenge him. Is Hearn protecting Joshua or does Joshua think it is impossible to beat Fury? A win for Joshua puts him above Wilder and Fury. Joshua will be a paper champion in history unless he fights Wilder or Fury soon and it is likely that Usyk will beat him again eliminating a fight with Fury. Do it now while you can, but then we have Eddie...

    I don't hear Parker calling to step in for Whyte. He has no obligations coming off the Chisora fight. He is not showing any confidence in himself by remaining silent. Step us like Ruiz has.

    Usyk is tied up because of the demand to rematch Joshua so he is out until Joshua steps aside.

    Nobody is ready for #4 with Wilder but that may happen some day unless other fighters step up.

    These up and coming fighters need to start fighting each other to eliminate one another. None of them been active enough to move up. None of them deserve to step in but they can try.

    Is the Whyte fight definitely off? Thought they had until the 11th then it goes to purse bids. If it's off, probably Ruiz. He accepted around a 20% split the first time around with Joshua.

      Fury wouldn’t give Whyte 10 million in a bigger fight he’s a businessman man .

          Nine times out of ten, when a guy is going off to the media that he wants a fight - he actually doesn't.

          Fights are made privately between two parties - not in the press.

            Nine times out of ten there is no fight. Todays fighters just don't fight. It is all talk and no action.

              They do have a week but they already offered Whyte 25% so I don't think that the fight will be made. I don't see Fury giving him more than that. Whyte is no draw. Everyone thinks Fury will win so Whyte has no value.

                    I am sure Hrgovic, Gassiev, Yoka, Sanchez, Kabayel, Makhmudov, Helenius, Joyce would all take 20%. Probably even Parker and Ruiz.
