Glad to see Wilder chose Ortiz over Whyte! Ortiz is a much better test, and from what I read, Whyte looked suspect in his last fight!
October 28, 2017:
Dillian Whyte can now look forward to bigger and better nights but neither Joseph Parker or Deontay Wilder will be quaking in their boots after he beat Robert Helenius by unanimous decision at the Prinicipality Stadium.
It wasn't the clinical performance Whyte would have hoped for, he certainly didn't come close to sending Helenius to Valhalla (Viking heaven) as he vowed earlier on this week...
The enigmatic 29-year-old from Brixton tried to steal the show on a night his rival Anthony Joshua defends his world titles, but as much as he failed to emulate the performance against Dereck Chisora that earned him so many plaudits, he didn't have a dance partner for these 12 rounds.
He did for the first two rounds, though. Helenius, 6'6', was awkward and cumbersome and the man from Brixton struggled to work him out early on.
Helenius even managed to wobble Whyte momentarily with a cuffing shot in the second round...
