    British hype machine, just like all of their fighters. Remember when Kell Brook was the talk of the town? Golovkin put a stop to that.

    Pretty poor example given Brook should have never even fought GGG.

    Hype machine exists for any nationality. it does not discriminate.

    The fact that everyone else is average, in a weak division, doesn't mean Whyte is special by comparison.

    Struggled to beat Chisora twice. Struggled to headbutt his way to a win against Parker. Neither of these are the same as winning outright and those are his biggest wins.

    Joshua's resume is better, Furys is better, Usyks is better, Ruiz Jr has a win over Joshua so his is better, hell Wilder facing Fury three times is better than Whytes entire career of blocking uppercuts with his face.

    You and I will simply have to agree to disagree about Whyte.

    Wilder getting beaten 3 times is better than Whites career?

    Indeed, agree to disagree.

    awful take

    Can you not think of a better example than a fighter moving up 2 weigh classes?
