Comments Thread For: Fury Expects WBC To Allow Joshua Fight Before Making Mandated Defense Against Whyte

[Corelone]

Fury-Joshua should follow immediately after the trilogy while Whyte should fight Wilder. That will be a good way to go.

Whyte vs Andy would work too. That would sell, and a big ring won't help Whyte, he looked worse vs Wach, than Andy looked vs AJ in a big lot.

What's the big deal about Whyte? Is he not making good cashish lately? Can he not just wait another year? Fight top 15 guys in the meantime? And BTW, I don't think he beat Rivas, and I certainly don't think it was a UD. Do a Rivas rematch. Now here comes the bombs after me. LOL

has fury not been paying attention to how the wbc and haymon have been in cahoots?

Whyte took that fight on short notice so stop lying Fury had a full camp for Otto

See, look at the position you put yourself in.

Are you actually in here comparing a washed up Wach- who had been put on his azz a few months earlier by someone with 12 fights- to a young undefeated (albeit untested) Wallin?

Really?

And by the way, the ONLY drama in that fight was the cut and whether it would be stopped. The fight itself? Not close.

By contrast, Whyte struggled all through out with a Wach clearly way past his contending days. The fight before that Whyte hit the canvas vs Rivas, a guy greener than Wallin. The fight before that he has down on points to another washed up guy in DelBoy before finding a punch to stop Chisora. The fight before that, he needed a referee's help for a win he didn't deserve.

What, out of all this, makes him a boogeyman?

Want the truth? Try this.

Maybe Whyte is just someone the real elite fighters don't want to waste their time with if they can get paid better fighting someone else.

Fury (or Wilder if he is able to reverse things) have bigger fish to fry and there are several fights bigger than one with Whyte. Especially the unification with AJ. How in God's name can anyone keep a straight face saying Whyte should get a shot at Tyson before AJ does?

Sorry, but not sorry to burst your Whyte bubble...

If they fought in 2017/2018 Lucas Browne would have beaten Wilder. Fury wouldn't have dared to fight an unbeaten Browne having been dropped by Cunningham and Pajkic and losing to the shadow of an overweight John McDermott. Instead he chose to fight Pianeta and Seferi. Says it all.

🤣🤣🤣 You must be Australian?
Lucas Browne was a top 20 hwt at best in his prime. No chance against Wilder, and no chance against Fury.
Crocodile Dundee would have had a better chance

What's all this boogeyman stuff? Tyson ducked Rivas and you can be sure that if Tyson had rough Rivas he would have been a hugely dangerous opponent and actually would have been a good win for Tyson. If Whyte, or AJ etc. beat someone like Rivas he is a stiff or a bum yet Tyson tough Pianetta, Seferi, Schwartz and Wallin. Whyte was **** against Each and I said he should not have been in the ring because he was a fat mess. The need for Tyson fans to completely trash Whyte's record is very weird as he has faced much better opposition than any other fighter in the run up to a title shot. Just look at Wilder's opponents before his title shot and compare them to Whyte's.

I agree that Tyson won the fight against Wallin by a few rounds but it was a far from convincing performance. You excuse Tyson because he had "over trained" but will crucify Whyte for the Wach fight when the only training he looked like he did was in McDonalds.

The conversation is pointless. I am trying to give a balanced view and have said that the fight is much closer than people think etc and all that comes back is stuff like GTFOH. It is an opinion and it is fine that you disagree but fanboys need to learn that not everything is so black and white.

You don't think Whyte wins a round and I think he stops Fury in the mid rounds. Let's just hope we get to see who is right.

Rivas? Oh I'm sure Fury lost a LOT of sleep worrying about a 6'0" heavyweight. What are you smoking? Whatever the strain you would make a fortune selling it. You and 1hourBum must be cousins?

The fact is that Tyson ducked Rivas who was far more credible than Tom Schwarz etc. Rivas was top ranked across all four ranking bodies not just one like Schwarz.

Wach found out AFTER Whyte did so he had even shorter notice. Wach, who got knocked out earlier in the year by a guy with 12 fights. Wach went the distance with Whyte, gave him hell, and hurt Dillian on several occasions.

Whyte is no boogeyman...he is Eddie Hearn's hypeman.

Fury should fight Joshua and Whyte eventually!
