Comments Thread For: Hearn: Whyte Accepted WBC Eliminator, Let's See if Fury Does!

[Jkp]

Don't understand why Brits think so highly of Whyte. He's just a loud mouth MF that refuses to fight his mandatories (Pulev, Ortiz) but believes he worthy of a another Title shot.

The bar is low. F grade bums like David price, Dave Allen are ppv stars over there, who just need 1 or 2 more wins in a row to be considered world champ contenders.

The thing is Shyte doesn't actually fight any of these tough fights.

He's been ordered to fight Ortiz and Pulev to get Wilder...but he keeps squirming out of doing so. Crying and complaining the whole time about what big meanies the WBC are.

Whyte Ran away from a signed contract to fight AJ , twice in the last 3 months!!!

I doubt he really wants to fight wilder, he would run from that as well soon as they show interest in it.

Wilder-Ortiz would stink the place. Give us Joshua-Wilder now. Or, Joshua-Fury. Fury already beats Wilder

[Deus]

Nice to see Whyte has actually accepted the fight... hopefully it gets made, though i'd expect Fury to win.

I take it from this, that you are a Wilder fan who doesn't want him to fight Whyte.

Whyte is about 1000 x better than Breazeale, and I'd back him to beat Wilder.

Why are Americans so in love with the idea of NOT making fights?

I want more fighters to have the attitude of up and comers like Dubois and Gorman. Both unafraid to match each other, legit solid prospects risking their 0.

There are comments in this thread politicizing Fury's position, Wilder's, and so on. I hope Fury mans up and fights Whyte, but I doubt he will.

I hope Wilder mans up and fights Joshua, but based on him talking in riddles about Ortiz x 3 (lol) and Kownaki, I doubt he will.

We got Joshua who will fight anybody..

Stop advocating for ducking - it's ****** and is ruining boxing.

Whyte is not 1000 times better than brezeale.

Whyte would struggle horribly with brezeale just like he does with all his other opponents. Brezeale is bigger and has bigger punch than ***** whyte. 50 50 fight to me.

Looks like Hearn has enough of the games these public deceivers are playing. First, he exposed the Ortiz team, now also Fury by calling his bluff. Nice.

Doesn’t matter what Hearn proves a bunch of Wilder fanatics would argue black is white

Agreed the bar is not too high, but since when have Price or Allen been rated as 'ppv stars' in the UK?

Whyte has improved significantly and consistently since being KO'd by Joshua. I don't know why he's being so underrated. He's definitely in whatever group is just below Joshua/Fury/Wilder.

They are on almost all Eddie's cards. Obviously not headlining. But 1 or 2 more wins and these bums will be considered world beaters by the British fan boys. Just like what happened to ***** whyte.

Price was hyped as being the next big thing until it turned out he has a chin made of breadcrumbs. Allen is just a game fighter who will headline for entertainment value, he's obviously not world class.

Whyte has yet to be exposed. Got to admit he's done all he can since losing to Joshua. And he's as good as if not slightly better than other ranked prospects from the US e.g. Jennings, Kownacki, Breazeale etc etc. He might fall, but there's no evidence of that so far.
