    It’s obvious at this point that Whyte is never getting a WBC title shot.

    Arbitration is due to the WBC refusing to give him a shot despite taking his fees.

    Ahahahaha not that there are real rules to this but shouldn't the Povetkin loss have reset the clock?

    He is the #1 contender (followed by Ruiz), but Whyte is still interim/silver/Olmec/whatever champ so he's still front of the line.

    Ahahahahahahahaha

    That tiny head must have exploded.

    Nothing surprises me anymore regarding the WBC, it just reinforces what most level headed observers have always known: they never wanted Whyte challenging for their title, and protected Wilder from him for donkey's years. Looks like they are going to bend over backwards to accomodate Fury now too.

    Seems Fury will be looking for a soft touch as a warm-up to fighting the winner of Usyk v Joshua 2.

    Be interesting to see what comes of the arbitration. Fan won't be happy if the outcome derails undisputed yet again.

    SO Whyte don't deserve to fight Fury but Kabayel does ?

    There is no better available opponent for Fury than Whyte, sadly.

    Tyson Fury has been way too inactive since Wlad. He should fight at least 2 times in 2022, preferably 3. And Whyte should be one of the opponents. Who else?

    Fury/Ruiz. He should be able to outbox him easy.

    I agree it's all about favouritism. WBC doesn't like Whyte, so it doesn't matter if he's WBC number 1 for 100 hundred years or wins a dozen final eliminators or how many international, silver or interim belts he holds from the WBC, they won't give him a shot because they don't like him.

    Good. Not many people want to see that plus a rematch again after that.

    Usyk vs Fury please. I want to see Usyk dismantle the giant.

    The earliest that can happen is October/November 2022. Surely Fury fights before that... He is a fighting man after all, right?

    We Be Crooks at it again! Greatest hits, yours for 29.99 plus sanctioning fees!

    Funny how much Whyte is hated by the WBC and this forum! Which actually represents the minority of people. It’s like a mob mentality.

    Whyte gets a lot of respect and praise everywhere else.

    Is what it is!

    As for the WBC, they are as blatantly crooked as it gets and Kudos on their trolling ability.

    I see a post here about “Be nice to WBC and they will be nice to you” and I am thinking... well before a relationship even got formed Fury was plucked out of never never land unranked in the WBC and gifted a title shot ahead of all top WBC contenders meanwhile Whyte had already grinded out several sanctioned WBC fights and was ranked WBC #1... clearly earning his shot.

    Being ranked number 1 in a roster actually means something everywhere else in the world except for in the WBC where it’s just a number.

    Wilder being protected for years as champ, Talks of Fury being elevated to franchise champion if Whyte gets a shot...Whyte putting together more/better WBC wins than any other WBC contender and it’s not hard to see how the WBC just don’t want this guy getting a shot no matter what.

    Not to mention Wilder’s direct message to Whyte saying if he got a shot he would make him wait two years.

    The real question is why? Many lesser guys got a shot who came to lie down... Stiverne twice.. Breazeale.

    I hope whyte wins then takes the wbc to court further for anything else

    And then I hope he sues them so much that he sinks their horrendous organisation
