    Far superior to Skelton and Sprott but definetly benefited from the MR hype machine.

    Dillian will always be remembered for his best mate taking his surname.

    lol you'd need to be born yesterday to think the only time Whyte or any boxer is juicing is when they're done for doping.

    you clearly don't have a clue about anabolics if you think Whyte isn't currently doping.

    He's the UK version of Wilder, except he had the left hook rather than the right hand that he relied on. Similarly his chin and belief is now gone. F**k it throw the pair of em on an undercard in Saudi and let's see who lands first.

    Did you even read? I said he was a big time doper and once he dropped it, so goes his performance.

    Completely overrated. Whyte's a good talker so managed to convince a lot of people otherwise. I still think Chisora won their first fight, or at least should have been a draw.

    Whyte's last win of any note was 7 years ago against Parker and the turning point of that fight was the headbutt that Whyte dropped Parker with.

    He carved out a pretty decent career based on his talent.

    He was a B level fighter with a good punch and now he's shot.

    The Wilder comparisons are pretty accurate although Whyte achieved more if we're being honest.

    It could perhaps be argued Whyte had a better CV but Wilder achieved way more.

    How on earth did Whyte achieve more than Wilder? Wilder held a heavyweight belt for five years and headlined three massive worldwide PPVs with Fury.

    Whyte’s best win (Parker) probably outdoes Wilder’s best win (Ortiz) but that’s about it. Both were incredibly well protected and promoted, but in terms of career achievements it’s not really close.

    He was alright. Just alright. Very lucky to get what he’s got, but let’s be honest the division is still **** poor and he’s rightly been in and amongst them. It’s not just him. More deserving of these fights than Chisora has been and many, even on here up until very recently used to love Chisora topping these bills. ‘He always comes to fight’ does he?

    He took tough fights and was the first person except me and Jurgen (maybe one or two more) to not eat Joshua bum hole so I will always like him for that.
