    Couldn't ask much more of him tonight.

    Shades of Louis Schmeling II!

    Not even close to Lewis, but a fun one to follow. Bugner level for now, I'd say.

    Above Fury and Lennox easily

    When you beat a legend like Browne you become a legend.

    Not even worth mentioning Whyte in the same breath as Lewis!

    All the others in their prime would beat Whyte with the closest fight being Gary Mason but I think even he would eventually land something fight ending on Whyte.

    There’s no shame in losing to any of those fighters by the way!,!

    No.

    Whyte is top five.

    He will give the winner of Fury Joshua a good fight!

    Whyte is garbage. Just lauded himself for beating a post-Covid 41 year old, who will probably retire from boxing next week.

    I can't see how you would still rate Lewis above Whyte now, honestly. All doubt should be erased.

    Actually when i think about it styles make fights. He probably would not by cautious against Fury at all and he'd go to the body and likely press forward. This would likely trouble Fury but alas Whyte has coordination problems and has slow feet. I can't see past a Fury UD. Fury would honestly just jab and clinch

    I think he is Chisora level, and the tough Chisora fights prove as much.

    And that is no disrespect to him. Chisora is a tough customer.

    I do hope you're joking. But it's sometimes hard to tell.
    I pretty much reckon you must be, from the Louis-Schmeling comment.
