    He'd be David Price after he lost X2 to Thompson

      Not at all

      The fact is he’s never been good enough to beat the real top guys but with so many belts in boxing now, all it takes is a few titles to get vacated and someone like Whyte can land a fight for a vacant title or a fight with a guy that’s picked one up. Then you’re right in position for big fights.

      There’s still a lot of good fights to be made around the second and third tier of heavyweights and he will be in that mix.

        He’ll have a choice to make

        Work with Eddie to get some domestic fights in, eventually getting another title shot a few years down the line

        Or go through the mandatory route again, most likely through the IBF. If Joshua loses, it would be a decent option for Hearn

          His problem is he's never improved as a fighter. He's no better now than he was when he fought Joshua I'm being serious.

            Lol not that bad since nobody ranks Thompson and Povetkin on a similar level. Chisora has lost 9 times and the UK still support him so I think Whyte can go on to lose 6 more times and still be ok over there...

              Probably just go on to fight Duhaupas and Hammer level guys.

                He would be okay I think. As has already been mentioned, Chisora has lost plenty and is still a solid draw in the UK. The domestic market will still be there for him, and its not like he was ever some big international player anyway.

                  I don't think his career would be over as such..

                  I may be shooting at shyt here but it may be good for him, for a while that is..

                  His only loss beforehand was the champion, he runs his mouth off and takes his eye off the ball mouthing about boxers he's not even fighting right up until he actually fights. Maybe another loss shuts/calms him down and he actually changes direction and concentrates solely on the fighter he's supposed to be fighting... I may be clutching at major straws when I saw that but if he does that then maybe he could carry on and gain some sort of credibility...

                  A win and all is forgotten and it was a blip, he trained wrong, it was lucky, it was the strange occasion and he's back to being a ****.....
