    1 win and 9 losses. He might beat Moorer but that's not a dead certainty. He may win vs the older Morrison also. Maybe 1-9 or 2-8 record. He could also lose to all of them.

    Tua's pressure, relentlessness, power and output would be too much for Whyte as he's hanging on the ropes looking for a counter left.

    The rest are too smart boxers to lose to Whyte. He doesn't bring anything new or unique to the table. I don't think he's as durable as most of those guys and has struggled with lesser boxers.

    The only person I think he could beat is Michael Moorer based on his physicality. The rest of those guys were strong enough and big enough to negate Whyte tryna drag them in a sloppy war. The skills each guy displayed in the 90s would literally leave Whyte in a state of confusion. Tua would sleep him in similar fashion to Povetkin.

    I wonder which delusional individual voted 10-0. There's no way Whyte hops into the Hot Tub Time Machine, travels back to the 1990's and beats all 10 on that list. :lol:

    Not on the list is Andrew Golota. Golota would give Whyte the Riddick Bowe treatment, savaging Whyte with a barrage of low blows, rabbit punches and headbutts while throwing the occasional punch or two, and get himself disqualified by the fifth round with Roger Bloodworth and Lou Duva completely apoplectic in the corner. :lol:

    Yet you're perfectly happy to make a prime Lennox Lewis vs Tyson Fury thread. Double standards much?

    No, Tyson Fury is a national treasure on this forum. His threads get special treatment.

    I like Whyte but he's getting smashed by those names mentioned.

    Him and Morrison would be a good scrap and I'd probably favour him in that one.... whoever lands the left hook first.

    Whyte 10-0, they're all in there 50s!

    Jokes aside, and IN classic forum, 0-10, most chance hes got is Moorer, which I still have a Moorer UD, besides that he gets murdered by all of them.

    Moorer was too skilled for Whyte and he was crisp and hard puncher. The only guy from this list against whom Whyte would have had a decent chance of winning is Tommy Morrison, who wasn't as skilled as Moorer, had very poor stamina and punch resistance

    Just a reminder of the power Whyte carries:

    I agree I chose 0-10 but that’s pretty much the only person I can see him beating by getting physical with him.. Tommy Morrison I think would be too strong for and Dillian would get caught..

    0-10 in my opinion, maybe some success against Morrison and Moorer but the rest in their prime get the better of Whyte.
