Comments Thread For: Dillian Whyte vs. Michael Grant Set For August 19, Says Hearn

[BWC]

The scheduled fight ( whoever) is less than a month away..i dont know what ppl expect? He also has to sell the fight and that meaans an american is preferred.

Shyte has been scheduled for this Nebraska card for months now. The whole time he was ***ing around with that Wilder nonsense, he could have been lining up a somewhat decent opponent. A Trevor Bryan, Molina, heck Travis Kauffman, Rossy, whatever. This opponent would have been an absolute laughingstock..

wtf???? lol this guy fought ****ing Lennox Lewis and hasnt won a single fight since 2011

[Larry the boss]

Hes taking the fight bc Wilder wont fight him and two ,he wants a tall guy over 6'5 for preparation of Wilder in CASE it does SOMEHOW happen later on.Its nothing more thana warm up fight,blame wilder not team whyte...lol

why in the utter **** would Wilder fight Whyte?? who the hell is Whyte?

[TBear]

Michael Grant!

[Larry the boss]

Are you seriously here defending this Shyte Fight? LMAO Some of the hate you guys have for Wilder has driven you completely mad. Wilder Derangement Syndrome in full effect..

yes he really is defending this horrible idea and blaming it on Wilder

[KillaCamNZ]

Bottom line is, no one is falling over themselves to fight him, so what else is he meant to do?

Willing, quality opponents are as rare as hens teeth these days - anyone with a shred of quality already has 48 reasons not to fight.

Lmfao this fat obese bum and his snakey lying promoter were calling wilder a ducker hahahah! Now this bum is fighting some bum in a 8 round fight! Then eddie hearn the scumbag has the nerve to say on ifl tv why would wilder fight ortiz over whyte hahahaha! These snakes have no shame!

Wilder said no. What do you expect Hearn and Whyte to do? Hog tie Wilder and drag him to the arena?

There's a core group of people here who lack common sense and any shred of logic - looks like you can be lumped in that group.

quick to the delorean. Set time period to 2002 and reach 88mph, we need to fight Michael Grant!

no this is a bad fight. what i would like to see happen is the wbc remove stivernes mandatory for skipping a drug test and then i want stiverne vs whyte because i know for a FACT stiverne would starch whyte easy. every person wilder has defended his title against except for spzilka (due to what wilder did to him), would beat whyte.

Now lets get this straight, whyte couldnt knock out ian lewinson, couldnt knock out daivd allen, couldnt knock out chrisora, cancelled his fight against mariusz wach because he knew he would lose, had hearn throw wilder a lowball fight offer to make it seem like wilder was ducking him and have whytes name in headlines, only to fight a guy literally no one knew still boxed. michael grant is 3 years OLDER than wladmir and will be 4 years older than wlad after the 1st week of august. the guy has fought 3 times in the last 4 years..... he was knocked out in all 3 matches..... how do you go from trying to challenge for the most pretigeous title to fighting this guy????

whyte should fight the winner of gerald washington vs jarrell miller or he needs to stfu about getting a wbc title shot. ortiz is a top contender so he deserves a shot and even dominic breazele fought izu ugonoh who is a very tough guy and won by ko so hes more deserving than whyte.

so in 2017, we've seen the uk cherry pick a fight against washed up paulie malignaggi, old man klitscko, 44 year old michael grant, and theyre seriously trying to run back the fade with old man klitscko.

and the small sample size we've gotten of uk fighters facing real american competition, we saw gervonta davis beat the brakes off liam "walllshyyy" walsh in england, we saw errol spence jr make kelly brook take a knee in england, and although it was ruled a draw look at what badou jack did to james degales face. uk fighters are domestic hype jobs who beat up on the rest of the world but steer clear of american fighters because they know whats going to happen. shout out to billy joe saunders for ducking danny jacobs for willie monroe jr.

Sarcasm my man.... Sarcasm

Grant is still alive ? We'll he probably be wilders next opponent since all he fights is unranked bums
