Comments Thread For: Hearn: Whyte Against Joshua is a F***ing Unbelievable Fight!

[MELLOMAN007]

Yawwwwwnnnnn...... Stevie Wonder could see this coming. Give it a break with the theatrics Eddie. Have you forgotten your dad(boss) already exposed the long term gameplan?

We already saw that movie. Who you fooling? Whyte doesnt have the skill or speed to compete with Joshua. No thanks. I'd rather Ortiz get a shot at Joshua if it's not Wilder

[TRTboy]

If Wilder and fury won't fight Joshua who would you rather he fight?

I'd rather Ortiz get a shot at Joshua. Whyte almost got ****ing killed the 1st time. What is to look forward to? Another Joshua KO? I know Whyte has been doing good and is improved but so has Joshua.

Eddie Hearn is very pumped about the possibility of a rematch between Dillian Whyte (25-1, 18 KOs) and IBO, IBF, WBA, WBO heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (22-0, 21 KOs). Joshua is scheduled to fight again on April 13 at Wembley Stadium London. And Whyte is the likely opponent should a deal to fight WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder fail to materialize.

Hi

it's not a bad fight

Whyte is clear #4 in the division with the best form of any contender. Of course we all would rather see Wilder or fury but those two are playing baby games so this is the best other option.

Ortiz is the clear #4. If whyte wanted to be #4 he shouldn't of ducked ortiz twice

[Jkp]

Eddie should market this fight as the battle to see who is the #2 and #3 heavyweight in England.

That's a very good question! I actually liked Hearn's idea of Joshua vs. Miller in NYC! I think that's better than fighting Whyte!

I thought the AJ and Miller fight was a good idea to. And a better option than a recycled fight with Whyte. Miller would be fresh and it would make AJ a bigger name in the US. The only thing that would make the Matchup with Dillian good is if Whyte won!! Because if AJ wins which everyone believes he will, it's not a big deal because it's expected. But if Whyte were to win everyone would be talking about it for a long time.

If Wilder and Fury are off the table, what do people want? How many other guys are out there better than Whyte? You could make an argument for Ortiz or Miller, but that's splitting hairs and those fights are nowhere near as big in the UK. Like it or not, Whyte has run up an impressive list of victories since the loss to AJ and has earned a shot at a belt.

White is the best opponent in the UK. I think people have just realized AJ has hit his ceiling doing these UK stadium fights where he banks a ton of money but don't do a dang thing for his legacy. It's time to move out of his comfort zone. A fight against Miller at MSG might not be a huge name but would be an entry point into global icon status.

And this isn't an "unbelievable" fight. It's rematch of fight that wasnt remotely close.very boring..

What has Ortiz done to earn a title shot?

Beat Kauffman and Cojanu isn't cutting it

Waiting until Wilders injury prone arm does not work any more. Then they are willing to fight.
