    I like Dillian Whyte

    ...and I want him to beat AJ. Don't get me wrong, AJ is a solid lad, I've hung with him and he is so laid back and cool. But Dillian Whyte on the mic today was a bull. He didn't eat the **** McCrory and Nelson were trying to feed him - "Oh, Cornish was a real challenge"

    "No he wasn't, he hasn't fought anyone in the heavyweight top 200," Whyte replied.

    The wtf look of shock on Nelson's face was a blast lol

    Having said that, Whyte is too limited and not focused on boxing enough, AJ, break him down in 3.

    I quite like the guy after the interviews i've seen of him, he says it how it is.

    I don't think he's going to do much better than Joshua's other opponents though.

      Yeah, he isn't taking any ****. Glenn and Nelson and other sky members in the past have tried painting AJs opponents as threats in the past while Dillian has been around and he has just shut them down LOL

      But yeah, as an actual opponent, AJ is too good for him.

        That was cringeworthy. You just knew that Nelson and McRory plus probably Adam Smith n co behind the camera were remonstrating with Whyte trying to get him to stop bashing Cornish as an opponent.

        Whyte called it absolutely spot on saying he'd get blown out in a round. Cornish knew he'd get paid well to get KO'd by Joshua rather than get KO'd by Whyte.

          Whyte is real. I like the guy more and more. But I can't see him beating Joshua right now. I don't know what the rush is for him, he's just been back for 12 months - Moved himself to Detroit etc. If I was his manager I would have focused on his career.

          But he's tough Whyte. No doubt about it and he can punch. I just feel AJ is a little too good right now.

          The interview was absolutely cringey. The Sky machine are really rolling, glad he shot it down.

            exactly, it's always cringey when Hearn, Smith and the Sky cronies are trying to sell us BS opponents for their stable. It really has gotten out of hand. I thought Warren was bad circa 2005, this is on a different level.

              Whyte is so basic and slow but given time, he could be better but I can't see any version of Whyte beating a pro, prime AJ.

              At least after this is out the way, Whyte can focus on his own, non AJ related career and probably pick up the Brit/Common straps, Euro and who knows, one of the vacated heavyweight titles.

                No strong opinion here, AJ can just as easily win, but I'll take Whyte in this one.

                There is a lot of background that is solid for Whyte behind the scenes and I think that Whyte will hae a psychological edge over AJ.

                If Whyte hits Anthony flush, AJ will ****in know all about it!

                  He certainly lives up to his nickname. I like him. He won't beat Joshua, but I hope he reaches world level, he can fill the void left by Del Boy.

                    What void was that? Chisora was a clown.
