    Agreed, and an acceptable one. He's not ducking him to fight Arreola, he's fighting Fury.

    Yep it was a stupid fight to make from Whyte’s perspective.

    Not really acceptable to take the fight, sell tickets, then pull out 2 weeks out leaving your opponent in the lurch. He was under no pressure to make the fight in the first place? This is assuming the 'injury' excuse isn't genuine, of course

    Disappointing .

    I was looking forward to this. Would have been a further indicator of where Wallin's at in capabilities and potential.

    I had Whyte as a slight favourite but was hoping Wallin would cause a small upset and win.

    A plus on this is that Fury "may" now fight Whyte. If he does I'm very much looking forward to the crazy buildup that will happen as well as a very entertaining fight.

    Ducking Wallin so he can bank the cheque with Fury. What a joke.

    It's not a smart duck. It's cowardice, let's call it what it is.

    What a bummer. I was really looking forward to this fight. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I have a feeling Wallin is being avoided.

    I see. So it's either Usyk, Whyte or drop the belt and fight whoever else?

    Usyk is pretty much off the table because it seems 99% certain AJ will fight him next.

    Fury should make Whyte wait now.

    Your shoulder is injured? Mr Whyte? Or are you just cycling again??
    Fine...... therefore, you are not fit to challenge for WBC belt I am going to pick my next opponent.

    Being that wallin is more deserving than Whyte. Especially considering their first fight was a draw in many ppls eyes.
