    Cuz I do feel like the WBC is f#cking with him a lil bit. They let Breazeale fight a bs mando fight & threw him f#cking Ortiz, the HW boogieman.

    Why didn't Whyte vs Breazeale happen for any ABC dork who happens to know this sorta corrupt sh^t?
    No, every single thing Daggum said is false.

    Whyte vs Breazeale didn't happen because Whyte didn't want to pull out of the Helenius fight. Legally, the WBC had to offer the fight to every rated contender, in order, to fill in for Stiverne when Stiverne had to fill in for Ortiz.

    The highest rated contender willing to take the fight on short notice was #12 Molina. Because Molina wasn't in the top 10, he was ineligible for a final eliminator. So for Molina, it was a semi-final eliminator, even though for Breazeale, it was a final eliminator.

    Had Molina won, he would have faced Whyte in a final eliminator. Whyte vs Helenius was a semi-final eliminator, so Whyte is entitled to a final eliminator if he wants one, but he keeps turning them down.

      Is it a money thing? Is there some 50/50, 75/25 automatic cut rule with mando fights & eliminators?

      Love or hate Whyte, & I wasn't a fan of his for quite awhile, but have come to respect & appreciate him in recent times, he seems a intelligent boxing business guy & has shown to be of some value that is more than the average mfer in the division.

      If there isn't a cut thing going on with mando/eliminator fights that would be a problem it could be him simply milking his paydays in easier fights guys he knows he's got a Joshua fight sooner or later on the books due to his relationship with Eddie & taking a mando fight vs a harder opponent in a less favorable position could drastically lower his value along with putting him on a further backburner for Eddie vs Joshua at some point if not completely destroying that opportunity.

      Seems like he was recently pushing for the WBC to make a call doe, but I don't see much of a chance Fury will fight him next cuz Fury seems to be on some weirdo American bs fight tour.
      Outside of Joshua the Fury fight would be the biggest fight in the UK for Whyte money wise

        The WBC order was total bull****. Even if he did beat Ortiz he would have been the "second mandatory" behind Breazeale and would have had to wait years to get his shot. And Breazeale getting a title shot after beating Molina is ****ing absurd considering Molina was something like #11 in the rankings.

          the ibf shot was for crap money and he would have had to fight on the road. he made 4 times more fighting parker in a home fight. pretty easy decision there.

          he said he would fight breazele or ortiz if it got him next shot. wbc said no. you would be the 2nd in line so waiting a year or two yeah thats why he didnt go that direction and went after joshua.

          i dont know about fury but furys with espn so thats a good starting point
          This is the 100% truth. Wilder fans won't like it though.

            He knows he'll probably get sparked. It made all of the sense to fight Brezeale, and what does he do? Fight Bin Man Chisora.

                The bigger question there is does Fury even want that fight? Idk with his decision making recently.

                  Hey Daggum,

                  That's actually not what happened. What happened is that Stiverne was #1 and mandatory. He agreed to put the mandatory status on the line in a fight with Breazeale. Just like Hearn had Povetkin do against David Price.

                  When Ortiz failed a test and Stiverne was moved to the main event on short notice, Breazeale was legally entitled to face the highest rated available contender in a final eliminator. The fight was offered in order to all the rated contenders, including Whyte. Whyte didn't want to pull out of the Helenius fight and declined the final eliminator against Breazeale.

                  The highest rated contender willing to take the fight on short notice was #12 Molina. Because Molina wasn't in the top 10, it was only a final eliminator for Breazeale. For Molina, it was a semi-final eliminator. Hence the confusion.

                  If you have any questions, I'm happy to help. When I was an intern for Don King, one of my jobs was to study the sanctioning body rule books to search for quirks and loopholes. So I'm well versed in these areas and willing to assist.

                  Thanks.

                  If you are correct , then that would make a bunch of sense
                  Molina fighting for #1 just never made any fughin sense , not his fault either cause I do know that the wbc will go up down it’s list
                  But I do feel like the wbc is fughing Whyte over big fughin time
                  Not sure if it has anything to do with the so-called politics ( PBC vs Dazn ) or wtv but he’s gotten royally fughin screwed
