Heavyweight contender Dillian Whyte is risking a lot when he takes on undefeated top rated fighter Oscar Rivas, who is coming off a dramatic knockout of Bryant Jennings. Whyte is nearing a long awaiting world title shot - and is currently ranked at number one the WBC - a position he's held for over 600 days.

Easier said than done. From what I hear this Rivas guy is no bum. Good luck getting the victory let alone the KO.

So, Eddie Hearn chose small, low-ranked fighters for his big, high-ranked boxers. His boxers (Joshua and Whyte) have height, reach, physique advantages over their opponents (Ruiz and Rivas). The first one lost and now people are worried that the second one could also lose.

I thought these were good, low-risk fights until they land their big fights against Wilder or Fury. If Whyte is as good as he claims to be (No. 1 rank according to his opinion), knocking Rivas out should be a piece of cake for him and his supporters should have full confidence.
