Deontay Wilder is open to face Dillian Whyte!!!!!!

[El_Mero]

Same reason he is scared of Tom Little I guess ...

You do know WBC not sanctioning Whyte next fight because he has tested positive for anabolic steroids

Apparently Whyte was enrolled and cleared by VADA before and after his fight with Rivas. It was UKAD who apparently found something

https://www.bbc.com/sport/boxing/49210120

The British heavyweight, 31, tested positive for a banned substance with UK Anti-Doping (Ukad) in the run up to his points win over Rivas on 20 July.

He was notified of the test on 17 July but cleared to fight by an independent panel on the day of the bout.

Vada conducted multiple clean tests on both fighters from 26 April to 21 July.

Vada operates in boxing and mixed martial arts and requires fighters or promoters to pay for testing for the duration of a fight build-up. It is understood the testing for Whyte's bout with Rivas cost in the region of $28,000 (£23,000).

The organisation is sought out by fighters for additional testing to the work carried out by country-specific agencies such as Ukad.

The Las-Vegas based Vada has earned a glowing reputation in the sport and was responsible for tests which led to the likes of American heavyweight Jarrell Miller and Mexico's Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez facing bans for doping in recent years.

Most recently, Andy Ruiz Jr praised the thorough nature of Vada testing he faced before becoming unified world heavyweight champion in June.

Whyte's failed test with Ukad reportedly took place in late June, around a month before he was notified of findings. Ukad has so far declined to publicly comment on the test and the banned substance has not yet been officially made public.

Whyte has a better resume than.wilder. That's a good reason to fight whyte.

Why not? I see it as easy money for Wilder

Wilder obviously doesn’t see it as “Easy money” otherwise he wouldn’t have turn down career high paydays at those point to fight a lesser known fighters with no resume.

[DaNeutral.]

Wilder wants the fame that comes through building a good resume without bothering to build a good resume. They have set a long list of demands and hoops for Whyte to step through when in reality that fight has been so easy to make over the last couple of years. All it ever needed was for the champ to want to fight the best names out there and thats EXACTY what Wilder has avoided doing. He just dont want it. Whyte is just seen as too much of a risk cuz he isnt 50, sick or feather fisted. Wilders resume speaks for itself.

It Wilder and his team that set out all the hoops to slow Whyte down. Not Whyte and none of them hoops needed to be put there, they chose to do that.

I thought Whyte had the opportunity to face Wilder if Whyte beat Ortiz to become the mandatory?

Nope he doesn’t have a chance, the fight was approved as a secondary mandatory. Which is the same stalling tactics the WBC have been using to protect Wilder.

Guess what? They even made Fury/Whyte a mandatory at the request of Fury. When Whyte accepted the offer Fury then said I don’t have to do anything that the WBC asked me to do.

Guess what? The WBC still made Fury a mandatory (NOT a secondary mandatory).... because of all the pressure of their blatant protection of Wilder they have finally come out and said 2021 is the time for Whyte mandatory, that’s if UKAD clears Whyte.

But in the past the WBC sanctioned other drug cheats for a title shot. Recently Yildrim v Benavidez from a failed VADA test. The same VADA test that Whyte passed.

So instead of burying our heads in the sand like we don’t know what’s going on with a corrupt organisation like the WBC, let’s step back and look at their recent history on the whole Wilder protecting schemes.
