    He isn't getting any more

    Skipped £5m AJ and now wants more for £8m Fury?

    He'll price himself out if this goes on and be left with a cash out against Dave Allen at the Brentwood leisure centre.

    Whyte is pretty sure he will be KO'ed making this his last significant payday.
    He's been kind of a PITA and promoters won't need much excuse not to deal with him.

    He's British level at his best. Not a world class fighter. That's what makes this all so incredible.

    Wait, there's no rematch clause? For a HW World Title fight? That's crazy.

    Cant do a rematch clause if it goes to purse bids

    No worries, but remember people are calling Joshua's side scum of the Earth for sticking a rematch clause in the Usyk fight, but in reality Usyk could have turned it down and gone to purse bids himself.

    Instead Usyk took the rematch clause and the 7% extra they offered him. So wgen it comes to greed, Usyk is no better than the rest

    I saw Dillian at a Tesco Extras in London yesterday. I told him how funny it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
    He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

    I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

    The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

    When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

    He'll bounce back, he's still young and has time to grow. All boxers have an off night every now and again.

    I think that Whyte genuinely thought he had a shot at beating Wilder but he knows he can't beat Fury so does Hearn

    Boxers are allowed to look after themselves and make money.

    He's fought tons of good opponents, and hasn't demanded unfair conditions in his favour, instead regularly going on his opponent's turf. He deserves nothing but respect.
