The Gypsy King would box circles around Whyte.

Fury pulls out of fights left and right and Whyte is all bark and no bite.

Dillian Whyte is much heavier than Deontay Wilder and plus he can hit. if this fight happens, then this should make for a very interesting match up because Whyte won't make it easy for Tyson. He is going to use every conceivable dirty and roughhousing tactic there is in order to frustrate Tyson Fury by throwing him off his game.

Easy, too. Whyte made Robert Helenius look slick.

Terrible fight for Whyte, great fight for Fury. I think Fury shines if this ever comes about.

... on one hand, Fury is stating that he doesn't have to call any of the belt holders, just because he's the "lineal champ"...

... on another hand, Fury calls WBC to put some "diamond belt" in line for his fight vs White...

... well...

Fat Fury will pull out as always.

He's had plenty of practice doing that to Michelle Joy Phelps. Gypsie King does what he wants!

The Helenius fight is one of the reasons why I think Fury is all wrong for Whyte. Dillian really struggled in that one because Helenius, who is 6' 6", used his height as a defence by leaning back, away from Whyte's power shots, and Dillian just couldn't land anything meaningful on him throughout the whole 12 rounds.

Fury is even taller and longer than Helenius, and a much, much better boxer. He would use footwork as well as height and Whyte would be eating jabs like there was no tomorrow!

Battle of the Cheaters. Let’s do it.

I don't take anything Fury says seriously. He just says whatever will get him attention.
