    ****s sake mate, you okay ?

    I fear for you when Whyte eventually gets found out (again).

    I'm worried about you, all your predictions are always wrong about Whyte.

    Dillian whyte got cleared, got back in shape, still boxing, beat this guy... beat that guy... beat your feelings.

    You been crying for TOO long.

    It's painful to see you wrong all the time.

    I'm always right.

    I predicted Whyte will never win a world title - he hasn't.

    He's hoovering up PPV cash by just and so beating B level fighters (with rather dubious tactics, dodgy decisions and drug claims) whilst calling out then ducking the champions.

    He will eventually get found out (again) if Eddie allows him to fight one of the bigger boys (again). Probably won't be this weekend as he's literally fighting in his managers back garden.

    If I was a Whyte fan I'd be looking at how Eddie moved heaven and earth to get Joshua moving on up and fighting for championships whilst keeping Dillian back as his B level back up.

    Who's the Donkey now ?

    He is WBC interim champ, soon to be unified... and when that happens you'll get another slap in the face!!!

    • You never though he would get cleared
    • You never thought he would get back in shape
    • You didn't think he would beat Rivas/Parker
    You went on and on, about how Whyte is FINISHED, RETIRED.... and yet he is here in FANTASTIC shape, check out the weigh in tomorrow, you can choke on your saltiness some more.

    Whyte gets made love on all the youtube comments... your hate gets overshadowed.

    Whyte has a big heart, but is not top class. If he was, Chisora wouldn't have almost beat him twice.

    Dillian Whyte's pursuit of a world title fight will be ended by a crushing defeat to Alexander Povetkin, says the Russian's last opponent Michael Hunter.

    Whyte is within touching distance of a mandatory shot at the WBC heavyweight belt currently held by Tyson Fury, but he must firstly overcome Povetkin this Saturday, live on Sky Sports Box Office.

    Povetkin has only lost to Wladimir Klitschko and Anthony Joshua, while he battled to a draw in his last fight with Hunter, who is predicting a disastrous night for Whyte.

    "I think Dillian Whyte is going to have some trouble dealing with him," Hunter told Sky Sports. "I think Dillian Whyte is going to lose. I think Dillian Whyte is going to take an L.

    "Povetkin will be there to get him. The fight will be at a decent pace. I think it's going to be an interesting fight to see, because the pace is going to be very similar, so I'm probably going to lean towards Povetkin."

    "I think it's [knockout win for Povetkin] very possible. The percentage is high and that's why I think this is a good fight, because people want to see explosions and I think they're going to get it here, even if it's for two minutes, or it might be for the whole fight.

    "We're looking for big punches thrown and I think that's what the fans are excited to see."

    Hunter troubled Povetkin with an early onslaught, but the big-hitting veteran staged a determined fightback to prevent defeat on the undercard of Anthony Joshua's rematch win over Andy Ruiz Jr in Saudi Arabia last December.

    The American believes he highlighted vulnerabilities in Povetkin, although Hunter also acknowledged the former WBA champion's ring skills.

    "He has a veteran experience that goes with him in the ring, definitely," said Hunter.

    "Very subtle things that he knows what to do. He has a heart of a lion, that's for sure. Just that alone, a very difficult situation to deal with.

    "I think I exposed a lot of stuff. I exposed that he can be easily knocked down in any round. I also exposed that he's not going to lay down.

    "If you don't knock him out, then he's not going to be knocked out. He's not the one to worry about what should happen in that situation."

    If Whyte turns up in shape which from reports he is he should take care of him , Povetkin wont pressure like a Chisora did so he should be able to settle into the fight and wait to land his left hook. Whyte for me.
