    Wallin would've beaten Whyte

    Pretty obvious why Whyte ducked him now isn't it?

    Wallin is legit, a solid contender.

    Wallin is a legit contender, but Whyte is still top 10 guy, maybe even top 5.

    Nah, Whyte would have beaten Wallin, I believe.

        At this point anyone with a solid gas tank beats Whyte. Povetkin was half dead in the first fight let alone the second, Wach was in horrible shape, he had to cheat to beat Rivas who dropped him anyway, and he only beat Parker on a headbutt knockdown and was on dream street at the final bell. Parker just didn't have the gas to finish him.

        I'd pick Wallin, Ruiz, Joshua, Wilder, Usyk, old man Ortiz, etc to easily beat Whyte.

          Tyson Fury in the Otto Wallin fight lost way too much weight, was like a CrossFit camp. Ben Davison became obsessed with improving Tyson's physique, but at what cost? It is well documented all over the show, how dumb Davison's training camp was. If Fury had stayed with Davison, he would be a Cruiserweight by now. And he also would have been beaten. Wallin is not a great fighter or a Heavyweight bogeyman. He just fought a severely weight-drained and weakened version of the Gypsy King. That was a one-off chance, due to Ben Davison's ineptitude. Wallin will never be afforded such an opportunity, ever again, in his career or life. And he wouldn't last 6 rounds in a fight with the SugarHill-inspired version of Tyson Fury.

            I think Wallin would’ve won. By decision. Whyte had solid outings in past but his fights with fossil povetkin were poor. I don’t know what guys were seeing to think he had a decent chance against fury who was way better, bigger, smarter & faster.

              I agree that the best version of Wallin could never beat the worst version of Fury, but Otto passes the eye test for me.

              Wallin would've comfortably outboxed Dillian.

                  Can't argue with that. Wallin is deserving of a fight against another high-ranked opponent. It was mad disrespectful, how shamelessly Dillian Whyte ducked him, and Rematchroom showed him a total lack of respect. "Sorry mate, Dillian doesn't wanna fight ya, but here's Kamil Sokolowski in an 8-rounder, instead!" Wallin has one of those styles which can make it tough for any opponent. Good durability, can take a dig, and has a very good engine, stamina-wise. We need to see him fight a live opponent, but it is funny how the world works. Wallin could be stopped by someone like Joe Joyce, then people will say Joyce beats Fury, just on account of Wallin giving a severely drained Fury an awkward fight. I think Wallin ranks about top 10 to 15 in the division, should fight someone like Dereck Chisora, or Robert Helenius.
