Comments Thread For: Hunter: I Want Dillian Whyte Next But Really Anyone Can Get It

[Roberto Vasquez]

I think Hunter can Beat Whyte. But it's funny people mocking Whyte when he's been fighting better people than Fury and Wilder and he's not even a world champion.

Exactly. I'm not sure where the narrative came that he's ducking Hrgovic (I've asked those espousing it with no decent answer only opinion). Hunter stated he wanted Hrgovic and the Croatian's team stated it was too early for that fight.

Hrgovic is still fighting no-hopers and trying to build a name while Hunter is facing serious competition.

Serious competition ?

You don’t even believe that.

Hearn and Sauerland both in recent interviews said offers were sent to Hunter with no response. They're on youtube.

Two sides to every story and I like Hunter but for whatever reason, he doesn't seem to want to fight Hrgovic. I really want to see that fight.

Hunter seems strangely overlooked by Americans.

That is the nature of the beast in this business.
You dont fight a fans "approved" fighter then you are ducking said fighter no matter what!!!

Imagine ducking a fighter whose last opponent is RYDELL BOOKER....for crying out loud.

Whyte has earned his stripe the hard way.
He has taken more risky 50/50 fights than a lot of these divas.
As long as he comes in shape he is a threat to any of the top dogs.

Why did he not call him. When he was with Matchroom

[Rodbox]

This fight should happen. F interim belts. If Whyte gonna sit around waiting for Povetkin? Next month Povetkin will have polio and the fight will be delayed again. Enough. It’s an interim title that nobody takes seriously. Eddie already promotes a HW title holder. Stop the games of trying to leverage mandatories when you represent the guy with a belt and have DAZN funny money. Whyte could have fought for that belt from the moment Joshua beat Charles Martin. Years are passing

Officially Whytes biggest hater

Hunters run from Hrgovic yet calls out Whyte who is a UK PPV fighter and Whyte v Hunter is not a PPV fight nobody knows Hunter.

Whyte can be a twat waffle when he opens his mouth but there is no doubt that he has taken risks when he didn't have to. Look at Pulev. There is a guy that twice held a mandatory position for 2 years & never risked his ranking. Not saying Pulev was avoiding anyone but his team refused to take on any live bodies waiting for his title shot. Whyte got the WBC #1 ranking after beating Robert Helenius for the WBC silver title. He fought Browne (who I always thought was extremely overrated), Parker, Chisora, Rivas, Wach & Povetkin waiting for his WBC title shot. He doesn't get enough credit for taking risky fights. It bit him in the a5s but he is still the #5 HW in the world in my eyes.

Any fighter who goes 12 with Povetkin in a fight i thought Hunter should have gotten the decision is not losing any sleep over a Hrgovic.

More up$ide to calling out Whyte or rematching Povetkin than wasting his time with Hrgovic.

Exactly! He should've gotten the Whyte fight over Povetkin.
