Dillian Whyte has been WBC #1 for 600 days. Never been made mandatory.

That is a bit of a joke lads. What are the WBC playing at? Wilder would likely blitz Whyte, but why are they so against giving him his shot? According to Eddie Hearn, they may be making the Whyte-Rivas fight for the Interim title.

didnt he reject some fights or something like that....

Being #1 doesn't make you a mandatory when you refuse to fight eliminator. Why is this so hard for y'all to understand?

Wilder-Breazeale was a mandatory as was Wilder-Stiverne 2.

The WBC has ordered mandatories for Wilder, they just haven’t set Whyte as the mandatory.

Now as to why I don’t feel sorry for Whyte. The WBC ordered Whyte fight Ortiz to determine the next mandatory called after Breazeale. Whyte didn’t fight Ortiz. The IBF ordered Whyte fight Pulev to determine their mandatory. Whyte didn’t fight Pulev. He’s currently the WBO mandatory and he was in negotiations with Joshua for a rematch and a title shot but it didn’t happen.

Dillian Whyte isn’t a victim. He’s literally had three chances to get a title shot and didn’t take any of them.

Who cares? Whyte has no chance anyway. He has no head movement. He'll get Breazeale'd.

They ****ed Whyte over. They offered him a "second mandatory" spot instead of a final eliminator even though he was ahead of Breazeale in the rankings. These sanctioning bodies show favoritism all the time and it makes boxing look bad as a sport.

That "second mandatory" bs was a joke. Whyte just wanted a guarantee that he would get Wilder next.

Because Breazeale was already mandatory. Whyte doesn't get to jump over him just because he wants to.

Why was Breazeale the mandatory in the first place? Its just favoritism.

Stiverne-Breazeale was ordered for a mandatory spot when Wilder signed to fight Ortiz the first time.

Ortiz was popped for PEDs and was replaced with Stiverne. This became a mandatory for Wilder.

Breazeale was set as the next mandatory challenger right there, assuming he kept winning. This is because he got screwed out of final eliminator.

Dillian Whyte then moves to number one. He and Ortiz are ordered to fight to determine the next mandatory after Breazeale. Whyte fights Parker instead.

Wilder is granted an exception to the Breazeale fight to fight Fury. Since it was a draw, the WBC sanctions the rematch and orders Whyte vs. Breazeale for the interim title.

Fury pulls out of the second fight with Wilder and the WBC orders that he fight Breazeale to satisfy the mandatory, as Breazeale was in line ahead of Whyte.

Dillian Whyte will be mandatory to Deontay Wilder when the WBC calls the next mandatory fight.

Whyte never fought a final eliminator. We've discussed this. A whole lot of times. Excessively even.

Whyte has never been offered a final eliminator for the mandatory position.
