Comments Thread For: Dillian Whyte: Wilder Is Injured; WBC Should Order Fury To Fight Me Next

[Larry the boss]

How do these guys fail drug tests and then start making demands?

[Larry the boss]

Whyte would've had his title shot by now except:
-He refused to fight Pulev in an eliminator
-He refused to fight Ortiz in an eliminator
-He was offered a chance to beat Breazeale for his mando spot and refused
-He turned down the Joshua rematch and Ruiz took it instead
-His steroid shenanigans from the Rivas fight got his status suspended

I maintain that Whyte's intention from the start is to try to get promoted to full champion from interim status or fight for a vacant belt rather than try to take the belts from Joshua or Fury (or, before Fury beat him, Wilder).

Whyte is all talk and he's beyond lucky he got out of that Parker headbutt knockdown fight with a W.

well damn^^^^^

lol dude wants to cut the line so bad.

Fury vs. Wilder 3 is clearly the next fight to make.

If he wants a fight, he can fight someone else.

[Dasmius Shinobi]

I don't blame him.

Well, hope Dillian Whyte get his opportunity to fight for the titles in 2021 summer at least.

They said it was a contamination event. The fact that he wasn't charged and they apologised would suggest it was a contaminated sample and that it wasn't in his system at all otherwise they would have charged him.

Eddie bought his way out of it.
That's why charges evaporated without any details of how dianabol contaminated whytes sample.

whyte is bluffing again. I remember when ***** whyte said he wanted a 2nd AJ fight too.
Yelled and screamed about it. But when Eddie unexpectedly sent him the contract. We all know what he did. Lol....



The guy is a joke...

So you believe it was effectively state sanctioned corruption and that a respected government funded organisation took money and decided not to pursue what would have been one of their most high profile cases?

What that means, is that something Whyte came in contact with was contaminated (drink, food, supplement, etc), not the sample itself. Basically they are trying to say they accepted his explanation that he didn't knowingly take something.

Saying the sample was contaminated would raise far bigger questions on how an illegal steroid came in contact with his sample at the UKAD lab, and what was an illegal steroid doing there in the first place.

I understand what you are saying but under strict liability the contamination of a supplement would still have been a fail and then they would have a hearing to look at mitigating factors to reduce the ban from the normal tariff. It seems clear that there was never any substance in his system which is why the statement was put out like that by UKAD and why there were no charges. You have to remember that the statement mentions other tests that were done at the same time and basically it must have been impossible for any metabolites to have come from Whyte due to the levels etc.

Ukad is funded by the fighters who use it. So yes they look after there customers who pay the bills. It gets handouts from government too. But not a government organization.

Ukad didn't have money to fight fury cases, which is why they got off so lightly. That could have bankrupted ukad .

Remember whytes failed test was leaked. There might be 100's of others fighters with dianabol in there samples due to contamination, but we would never hear about it.

Quite simply you are wrong. UKAD was established by the UK government in 2009 and is 100% owned by the Department of Culture, Media and Sport. The fighters that use it pay zero to UKAD. You may be getting confused with VADA.

As for it not being a government organisation, UKAD often complain that due to them being 100% owned by the UK Government they lack the "operating freedom from the Government" to pursue commercial activities to earn income outside of their dependence on government money. Fighters or athletes are never UKAD's customers and that is simply a complete misunderstanding of how the system works.

UKAD had plenty of money to fight the Fury case and only put the story out that they may go bankrupt as there was a spending review and they wanted to ensure that they continued to receive extra funding. This is in the context of them receiving an extra £6.1m of funding over 2 years at the beginning of 2018 which by happy coincidence they were awarded just after they made the fanciful claims of going bankrupt. It was a ploy by the head of UKAD to extract more funding from the government and it worked effectively increasing the money they get from the government by over 50%.

I actually agree with you about there may be lots of other cases of contamination where no charges are ever brought and that is why these cases are dealt with by UKAD initially until there is evidence that proves innocence. This happened in the Whyte case but only after it was widely publicised.
