Comments Thread For: Jarrell Miller vs. Kubrat Pulev Fall Out, Hughie Fury Steps In

[Phenom]

Same folks alright with Whyte passing up the 500K are calling Miller everything but a child of God for passing up the same deal.

At least Miller was willing to do the fight in the US or neutral territory.

Just amazing...

And before anyone tries to come for me about what Whyte did or did not do vis-a-vis Pulev, read this.

Kubrat Pulev has launched an attack on Dillian Whyte and Eddie Hearn after the surprise announcement that the British fighter had agreed to fight Joseph Parker.

Pulev (25-1, 13KOs) had been ordered to fight in a final eliminator with Whyte for the right to be the mandatory challenger for the IBF title. However, after the fight went to purse bid - which Whyte's promoter Hearn lost - negotiations failed to advance.

Whyte has repeatedly said that he would fight anyone in the division, but Pulev has now accused him of doing everything possible to avoid fighting him.

"I was expecting from Dillian Whyte and his team to run away from the fight, but I didn't expect from them to be such bull**** artists," Pulev said in a statement.

"They are extreme manipulators and plain schizophrenics. I can't believe what I'm hearing and what a tricky way they chose to run away from the fight in Bulgaria.

"The whole time Hearn kept talking in circles about negotiations and how they are still trying to bring me to UK. All this while a date and a place was already announced by the winner of the bid -- us."

Pulev had been due to fight Anthony Joshua in an IBF mandatory back in October before pulling out with injury 12 days before the fight. He had been hoping to get another shot at the world titles by beating Whyte in a fight that was planned to take place in Sofia, Bulgaria.

"We won the IBF purse bid rights with almost double the money they offered. Nobody wants to fight Dilian? YOU ARE DELUSIONAL MAN! First of all I never refused and I still want to fight with you! DILLIAN, if Hearn is misleading you somehow, let me tell you personally- I am still waiting for you in Bulgaria to help you get out of the delusion and bring you back to earth!

Whyte refused to dwell on the situation with Pulev, telling ESPN: "I let Eddie deal with all that. He's the one that deals with the route. He puts the pins up and I knock them down."

TBF Whyte passed on two eliminations and chose a meaningless fight against Parker and now are begging WBO to sanction the fight

He is dropped by the IBF and probably WBC next

Everybody is whining and complaining about Miller, why didn’t that Britian Bum go to the United States for 50 million, a bunch of HYPROCRITES!!!!!

controlling the fight is the most important thing in boxing. look at wards career. i dont blame anyone who has a decent promoter for not traveling. rig everything in your favor. everyoen else does it. if you try to be mr. morals you end up losing unless you are a ko puncher and get the job done like ggg or spence. just look at the ggg-spence fight...laughAbly they had brook ahead. the ref also "missed" a clear knockdown. those kind of "mistakes" happen a lot when yoU dont have control over the event. NEVER TRAVEL

I remember in the not so distant past non-American fighters were criticized for staying their home countries, a lot of times being seen as holding belts hostage. But now that a popular champion is using it as an excuse to avoid his toughest challenge, the tables have turned. And you even have fans applauding this bull****. Like it or not. A foreign fighter fighting an American fighter in America is more of a neutral site game than visa versa.

Only in Bulgaria

Whyte was right not to take it though. He has a bigger fight on PPV and if he wins, will probably fight AJ at wembley. Miller will fight nobody for nothing.

Whyte ducked out, and ducks anyone tough where he doesn't have home field advantage. He ducked fighting Miller .... several times.

The thing is whyte took a harder fight instead in Joseph Parker and will make more money from it so i don’t see the problem.

Another american rant thats based on nothing.

[P4Pdunny]

Fury doing what that big mouth won’t do

[BattlingNelson]

Another duck. First Whyte and now Miller. Disgraceful. They shouldn’t call themselves prizefighters.
