You're fighting Malcom Tann for goodness sake. How are you going to open your mouth about anything?

Funny how Wilder fanboys are criticizing Whyte for fighting Tann. Look at Wilder's resume first. How many 35+ years old washed up boxers has he fought? Take DeAndrey Abron, for example. 38 when they fought and coming from 5 straight losses. Many more on the list and bigger bums than Tann.
At least Whyte and co. are not pretending this is a serious fight. They are telling it like it is. Just an 8 round warm-up fight to keep him busy and make his US debut. Surely, it's a mismatch but it's a small budget 8-rounder fight and that's what they got offered (Grant and Tann). Mansour, Breazeale, Washington and the like will not fight Whyte in an 8-rounder for peanuts.Comment

The fact is Whyte needs to get another solid win or two on his resume before he starts demanding Wilder.
He needs to earn a shot at the WBC title. Right now he brings nothing to the table except perhaps money.Comment

Money's a pretty good reason to be fair.
As is building the AJ fight.
If Deontay goes out and gets an AJ or talks Klitschko into fighting or Fury, Ortiz even Parker then by all means pass on the Whyte fight.
But Dillain's a top-10 heavyweight according to ring tv, espn and tbrb. Which would make him only the second one at time of fighting on Deontay's resume if I'm not mistaken...Last edited by diarraisagod; 08-09-2017, 03:23 PM. Reason: doesn't like the name of a well known boxing siteComment

Oh man...you know what forget it you want me to dig up all the articles from Oritz,Hughie, Parker, both Fury's, Pedvektin, Ustinov...It my fault for thinking you keep up with the news.
You casuals shouldnt comment if you are not informed in events and turn around and say Wilder is not trying. I have done the work for you guys in the past year but I think its time you guys start using the forums features and do the research.Comment

he'll make the card great for Crawford, always entertaining when he fightsComment

I don't regard the Fury boys highly, and aren't they still waiting for their ban to be lifted? Ortiz seems to have the goods, but he has been busted twice for juice and is getting old. He's another who has been talking more than actually fighting. Povetkin is the only fighter that Wilder was actually prepared to face before fleeing at the hint of a trace of an illegal substance-for which Povetkin has since been cleared. When you say Ustinov, I say who? The 40 year old that Pulev KO'd?
You have to admit that Wilder has been moving very carefully and hasn't done much more than talk about wanting to unify. Actually, he's barely even doing that lately.

Ok this converstation is over - I cant tell you have no clue of whats going on and I have no time to explain in detail but heres what you fail to understand Alexander failed another PED test AFTER the 'Meldonium' incident, this was in his second chance granted by the WBC. later.I don't regard the Fury boys highly, and aren't they still waiting for their ban to be lifted?

"after original opponent Michael Grant was pulled from the contest due to cries of the contest being a dangerous mismatch."
