Comments Thread For: Whyte Calls Joshua a Liar: I Never Got Any Offer For June Date!

Whyte don't get no respect.

Join with the PBC, they'll treat you right.

Exactly, been saying this for a while. Whyte still stuck in the colonised mentality though

If Dillian signs with PBC he won't need to turn down any more offers to fight AJ.

Uncle Al will do that for him.

Just seen the link below; Hearn and Whyte are not getting what they want straight away, but Fury vs Whyte towards the end of this year would go some way towards clearing up the arguments about rankings and mandatory challengers - the winner could be mandatory for both WBC and WBO.

he is such a PPV STAR yet Haymon met and did not even offer him a doggy bag.

Lets be real he gets paid a lot by Hearns nobody else is going to pay him.

He knows he is stuck with Hearns otherwise back to £20000 purses on the small hall shows

Whyte got his offer to fight Joshua at Wembley, that would have sold well. 2 Englishmen fighting at MSG would have been a flop in sales regardless of who they were. Joshua needed to fight somebody at least based in the USA, and with Ortiz bottling it Ruiz was probably the next best option for the sales pitch - now they've got the Latino fans to pitch it at as well.

Why do you believe that? Americans pay to see quality fights, regardless if one of them are from the U.S.A.! Pacquiao vs. Marquez did it 4 times! Americans would gladly pay for Joshua vs. Fury in Las Vegas! Joshua vs. Usyk in MSG? SOLID! Lomachenko vs. Berchelt at Staples? SOLID! Nationality means nothing, if the guy can fight!

Like he did for Ruiz? Like he did for Jacobs?

All very true. But in fairness to Whyte, he isn't saying he should have been offered the fight, just letting everybody know that he didn't turn it down, because it was never offered to him.

Jacobs left PBC and signed with Matchroom last year.

If it's some guy they never heard of before, how do they know he can fight?

Comparing AJ and Whyte to Pacquiao vs. Marquez is nuts!

I’m pretty sure Hearn said he wasn’t offering Whyte the fight immediately after Miller peed hot

I remember Hearn saying he would have a trouble with Whyte, if he says he would be ready for Joshua, after turning down the april date due to extra drug testing on a 8 weeks notice.
