    Fury out boxes him in a tough fight but without Whyte improving a right hand I don't see how he gets in on the 6'9 Fury. I don't think it happens soon , they'll want to market both guys.

      Fury beats him comfortably.

      Bad style for Whyte. I like Whyte and he is improving but i don't think he has the tools to trouble Fury

        Whyte does pose no small amount of danger with his power, especially with his left hook. I just have a hard time seeing him landing it clean on Fury, and he's not fast or athletic enough to put enough pressure on him to pin him down considering how mobile and awkward he is. I do begrudgingly have to admit that Whyte's proven himself as a good fighter and belongs in the mix, but I think he'd have a better chance in a Joshua rematch or against Wilder than against Fury. He's made to win firefights against other sluggers, not technical boxers.

          Easy Fury decision, he isn't going to be catching Fury with that left hook. And he doesn't have a good right hand.

            Pretty much agree with that. Fury would lean in and on Whyte all night. It's anot out of the question Whyte winning (I really think he is right up there with AJ) but stylistically this favors Fury.
            Whyte beats Wilder 9/10 imo.

              Whyte claimed he dropped Fury in sparring many times and Fury has never denied it.

              This would be an interesting fight.

                Won't happen. TR will want Whyte to pursue a mandatory against Wilder. They want a world title on ESPN.

                    Fury would probably keep the fight at long range and outbox Whyte for a points win but Fury's chin is not that good and Whyte could knock him out. I hope Whyte wins if the fight happens. I like Whyte. He isn't a bragger and he will fight anyone for good pay. He has a good record.
