Yea some cats are way too up on Whyte.
I think its cuz he gave Joshua his best competition at the time of their fight. I mean go watch his other fights. Whats to be THAT excited about? I mean he doesn't suck by any means, but....
That said I tend to think many fans get too down & overreact on guys over L's so I guess its nice to see guys overreact positively about a L cuz it happens far less often.
I try to stay away from that these days after learning myself waayyyyyy back in the day with guys like Ricardo Torres (who I predicted would be a title holder once upon a time post-that awesome showing vs Cotto) among others I was far too confident about after a L. Guys who know how to win are far far far better fighters then those who do just enough to still lose I've found.
Solid point. Since Joey Parker is with TR a W over Jennings could get Whyte in title shot distance just like a W over a decent PBC guy.Someone also mentioned Jennings on a TR card..
And the fact that Hearn & Arum have been talking about Crawford vs Indongo could have led into talks about Whyte & Parker being a goal this year or early next year.Last edited by Eff Pandas; 06-09-2017, 07:06 PM.Comment

He beat Joshua so dont see how overatedI'm not sure Whyte beats any top 20ish guy comfortably or easy if that's basically your implication. I think Breazeale is dangerous for most guys in the top 10, top 20 & beats most everyone else.
I think Whyte is HIGHLY overrated & has beaten less quality fighters then Breazeale has, but in their big common opponent (Joshua) I think we see a clear difference in those guys mindset + ability & that's mainly why I lean Whyte's way. Its a competitive, fun fight if it happens doe.

Yeah there is likely to be a knockout in either matchup but not something to go crazy about.
The comment about Whyte vs. Miller is good one as wellComment

Eddie must be confident about getting a Wilder shot if they are gonna bring him to the states. I would guess he gets a name guy who isn't a huge risk if that Wilder pay day is looming. I'm gonna guess we end up with Whyte vs ArreolaComment

agree ... only English hype could turn whyte into a top 10. He's clearly no better than chisora based on his last effort.Comment
