    I honestly beieve at this point that the WBC are doing this on purpose because of pressure put on them by Whyte. I think they will make it as difficult as they can. Dillian hasn't helped himself by pulling out of Wallin fight. I can't help but think that Hearn and Whyte thought they could wing it. It seems everything Hearn has at the moment has turned brown and smelly.

    Yes but it's better than someone like Agit Kayabel

    Irony is that WBC could have ordered it if Whyte’s team had not initiated the arbitration process. Really think Whyte’s team miscalculated because the only time to have brought proceedings would be if WBC did not mandate a fight between him and Fury as the mandatory. However they jumped the gun.

    Why would Wilder need to be protected from Whyte when all available evidence is Wilder would put Whyte to sleep.

    Whyte got KOed by a 50 year old Povetkin. He doesn't deserve a title shot.

    Are you sure Mauricio has not disowned the tosser from Tuscaloosa, Alabama? Nothing wrong with Canelo being a favourite Godson. As you know Floyd is Canelo’s Daddy or is it Grand Daddy? Who would you like to see Canelo face?

    I'm not sure about that: Kabayel is at least undefeated at 21-0, far less shopworn, never dropped and Kabayel had significantly less trouble with their one mutual and possibly best opponent (Chisora). I believe Kabayel is also the only fighter to drop the iron chinned journeyman Rudenko. Kabayel would probably take Fury a few more rounds than Whyte. We all thought that 20-0 Wallin was another Tom Schwartz and Wallin had fought weaker opposition than Kabayel but it turned out that he was better than Whyte.

    Thing is, what is Whyte gonna say if the WBC make Whyte vs Wallin the final eliminator for Fury's belt? He was gonna fight him anyway, before getting injured, so it's pretty hard for him to object...

    Because it contradicts the wbc reasoning why they didn't call it. They never mentioned Whyte must fight wallin they said it was down to the arbitration matter so Whyte would have every right to claim a wallin fight is irrelevant.

    WBC = World Boxing Crocks. It's Arum pulling the WBC strings just like Don King back in those days. Poeple criticise Hearns but atleast Hearns wants to put this fighters against the best - Arum on the otherhand just controls WBC and never lets his top fighters get the big fights. The only time he will let his top guys fight a big name is if he wants them to lose and get rid of them . i.e Teo was brought to fight Loma because Arum thought Loma will beat Teo.

    That his already got himself into mandatory position and the original fight was not an eliminator so why should a rescheduled one be?
