    I couldn't help but laugh when Frank started telling us all how great Dillian Whyte is now when for the past few years he's not been in the same league as Fury or Wilder... But he's now all of a sudden more dangerous than Wilder ever was, despite us all seeing him getting flatlined by an old man Pov in the interim!! These promoters must all think we've got short memories Lol

    So 80-20 for 90% of the pot and the other 10% goes to the winner.

    So Whyte is going to end up with around 18% for this fight...

    The funny thing is if Whyte wins Frank and Bob are $4m out of pocket.
    They did a set deal with fury but not Whyte. Fish eyes will be on a shoulder roll if Whyte wins this

    Fury has gotta be in a serious bad place to lose to Whyte ffs really don’t like this fight. It’s just a waste of time in my view.

    It’s definitely not. Whyte will ask more questions of Fury than Wilder.

    The last time Fury fought anyone close to Whytes quality was pre retirement over 6 years ago against Wlad.

    Whyte tried to back door Eddie with shalom and sky.
    Eddie lost bid, so did Shalom.
    Whyte not happy with split and weighing up his options.
    Whyte allegedly offered a sky deal after this fight.
    Eddie comes out with this line to put Whyte on the spot / expose him after trying to back door him because he knows he doesn’t want to take this fight.

    How’s that for a theory

    If Fury's in any sort of decent form it should appear like an easy night's work. Whyte is very mediocre, British title level at best. Whyte does come to fight though, so he could make a fight of it for a couple of rounds maybe.

    The fight's appeal seems to be based more on the personalities as some sort of grudge match thing. And Whyte's mediocre accomplishments have been well hyped over the last few years.

    Whyte has to take the fight.

    Even a deluded ungrateful entitled diva bum like Whyte knows it's a good deal. Surely.

    Whyte is just another plodder... gets KO by Povetkin, goes life and death with the likes of Chisora, gifted a decision against Parker. Lets not act like he is some elite boxer. Is he really much better than Otto Wallin who he ducked?

    But it is difficult to gauge how good Fury is compared to pre peds/mental health '"retirement" because Wilder is a terrible boxer. Fury pre retirement does a Chisora 2 on Whyte, but who knows now. Doesn't have the movement he did 5 years ago, so could get caught.

    Whyte is a sloppy and reckless fighter at times but he also has a good jab, the best left hook in the divison, is physically strong and goes to body more effectively than anyone else in the divison.

    Whyte avenged his loss and KOed one of best HWs in the divison in Povetkin. Deservedly beat Parker (even when discount the the KD that shouldn't of stood). Deservedly beat Chisora in the first fight (I had Whyte winning by 3 points), KOed Chisora in the second fight and jabbed Rivas head off in their fight.

    Who has Fury beaten since coming out retirement?

    Wilder - a very limited fighter Who had the poorest resume out of the top 10 against soft hand picked opponents.

    Wallin - whose best win at time a time was a points win against a guy Dimitrenko Koed in the first round.

    I agree pre- retirement Fury beats Whyte but I don't think the current version does.
