Comments Thread For: Fury Hints He'd Drop WBC Title, Not Interested in Fighting Whyte

[Matey0809]

But apart from Wlad and the one trick pony Windmill a.k.a Wilder he has been well motivated to fight taxidrivers and gatekeepers but he can't be motivated to fight a mandotary?

It's quite obvious that Fury is nothing but con artist.

Very true, his record is quite weak when you look into it, whtye is a very good opponent and fury is keen to keep away, he'll fight the likes of Otto wallin and tom schwarz, and pretend there quality opponents!!

I said it, Fury is scared of whyte which means all whyte said about beating him is sparring is true

[Akutalee]

Fury is back on coke again

Aj won't fight him either if not for the undisputed world champion, but it doesn't make any sense only if he will accept 40% of the deal

Lol

Scared? maybe

I'm still trying to figure out how we will ever see a full unification in todays era. It seems like that doesnt matter to anyone. I personally would love to see a fight where ALL major belts are on the line and as Wilder said it 1 face 1 name

Been calling for unification since first Fury/wilder fight.

If it doesn't happen after this next bout then it'll never happen. I'd definitely lose interest in the division. There'd be no all English battle on British soil so There's not a fight I particularly want to see happen.

I just want a unification regardless of who holds the belts..

AJ won't fight who? If it's Whyte then he's already ****** him out and Whyte turned down AJ for a second fight when Ruiz stepped in.

AJ will fight Fury.

Whyte is nothing but a mouthpiece in the division. He offers nothing AJ and Fury want out of boxing at this present time. They hold the belts, they hold the fans, they hold the power..

what does Whyte possibly have to offer them to change the minds of fighting each other? He's got nothing. He knows it ain't happening, he knows Hearn won't allow it.. he's just spouting hoping that someone does give a belt up and he takes it without fighting anyone.. he's full of the proverbial..........

Tyson won't drop the belt imo. He'll threaten, but the WBC won't let potentially the biggest fight in decades in HW division pass by without there name on it..

Pretty much the only guarantee here that the WBC won't want to miss out on that Fury/Joshua dosh. Only question is what bone they throw to Whyte to shove him aside.

Why do they have to through anything towards Whyte? Unification over mandatory is the rule. And Whyte cannot do anything about it...legally or illegally.

Looks like Fury is scared of fighting Whyte pure and simple. How come he fought Schwartz, Wallin and doesn't have interest in Whyte a top contender under WBC?

Says the guy who just fought TOMATO CANS/UBER DRIVERS: Otto Wallin, Tom Schwartz, Francisco Pianeta, and Sefer Seferi in 4 of his last 6 fights. Unreal

Because Schwartz and Wallin posed little danger and also demanded little pay. Also, by fighting those "tomato cans" and with the help of his trash talk and invisible belt, you got to admit that he brought himself up to a position where nobody tells him what to do. That is smart play to bring himself to this position.

Can Whyte do that?

Nobody is scared of bum Dillian Whyte, this is the same man who lost to Del Boy, should've lost to Parker and barely got by Wach in his last fight.

Fury would get no credit for beating Whyte because people would just say he's beaten AJs leftovers.

Fury vs Joshua is the fight to make in boxing, the gym sweeper will just have to wait for his turn.

Whyte made all the wrong moves at the wrong time. He favored immediate paydays over positioning himself or improving his financial profile (outside the UK).

For all his talk, Whyte's been a mandatory in waiting for just 3 months. He got his mandatory position (back) in December 2019 and boxing has been suspended after 2-3 months. All his No. 1 rank means nothing since he did not fight eliminators. He can speak a lot but has little legal substance to back it up.

He must be remembering Wilder as a champion now. He had a better chance of forcing Wilder than he has of forcing Fury. Also, to be honest, Wilder did indeed give him pretty sound advice Whyte to fight Ortiz and he would give him a voluntary. Whyte fight 2 fights in the US would have raised his profile to make Wilder-Whyte a financially lucrative match. Even if that had not materialized, Whyte would be demanded by US fans as a challenge to Fury. I keep saying, Whyte is a UK-level fighter (in terms of his visibility and popularity). Your boxing profile comes second to your perception/public profile in terms of how people see you. Today, nobody at a high level wants to fight Whyte and that too in the UK...Neither of Joshua, Wilder, or Fury. Wilder may fight Miller or Ruiz and generate more money instead of Whyte.

Whyte should know he ain't fight for the title shot till 2022. He still has the chance to go to the US and fight Ortiz or Ruiz or Miller or take an easier fight in Kownacki. He'll have to get a lower payday initially for 2-3 fights but if can KO them in style, he will be in demand. Otherwise, good luck and he may lose before 2022 anyway.
