    Whyte delayed, Fury named Mando

    Dillian Whyte has missed out on his mandatory position to fight Deontay Wilder in 2020 and has been replaced by Tyson Fury, the WBC president has revealed. Brixton’s ‘Body Snatcher’ beat Oscar Riva…



    Due to his perceived unavailability, the WBC decided at their convention last week to install Fury as the mandatory challenger for Wilder in 2020 instead, with Whyte getting the 2021 shot, if his UKAD situation is fully resolved.

      They have been very shady when it comes to Whyte but this time it’s understandable

      He failed a test and then everything since has been very ambiguous and vague. No official statements, no B sample results etc.

        But according to Hearn and the WBC president Whyte isn't suspended and he's cleared to fight.

          Where did you hear that about vague and ambiguous and B tests? And to be fair he passed all the VADA tests.

          WBC playing silly games giving the PBC what they want which is to keep whyte and any Matchroom fighter away from Wilder.

            He is clear to fight. That might possibly change when the outcome of his PED investigation is announced, but as of now, he is clear to fight and should be in the WBC mandatory position.

              He hasn't fought since June and nothing is scheduled. So what's stopping him from fighting?

                  It would be understandable, if a WBC mandatory defence was due to be ordered. But it isn't, and Wilder has already been given permission by the WBC to fight Fury as a voluntary, if he gets past Ortiz.

                  There is plenty of time to wait for Whyte's UKAD case to be concluded and no justification for jumping the gun and suspending him now.

                  Suspending Whyte from his mando position and making Wilder/Fury - which has already been agreed and signed - into a mandatory defence is just blatant favouritism on the part of the WBC. They are bending over backwards to allow Haymon/Wilder to pick their own opponents and swerve their mandatory obligations for another 2 years.

                    Second time they've now ordered Wilder to fight Fury after previously approving the fight as a voluntary defence. Both times Wilder has already had mandatories waiting in line.

                    First time, Fury walked away. Then he gets another shot after fighting two nobodies and a wrestler.

                    Has Fury got photos of Sulaiman with goats or something?
