    Given Browne's situation and age this would have been a good opportunity.. He talks about fighting anyone anywhere then someone gives him a shot and his turns it down..

    7 weeks is a bit short but what else as big would he have coming up??

    If Big Baby is right to go then I'd favor him over the limited Whyte (Miller is limited too)...

    That would be a really, really good addition.

    I'll take Miller.

    This would have FOTY contender written all over it.

    I'd favour Miller, but it could go either way.

    What is Browne waiting for? Needs to take these chances while he's still relevant, surely the winner would get a big payday vs AJ too.

    Would be happy with Whyte-Miller though, I imagine Miller would fight anybody for the right price.

    Really disappointed with Browne regarding this fight. For a while now I've had him in the lower reaches of my top ten based being a former titlist and having two pretty decent wins against an undefeated Rudenko and a game Chagaev in Chechnya. But there's no excuses for a 38 year old guy not to take the fight against a limited Whyte. The fee offered may not have been ideal but it still would have been one of his larger pay days to date and given Browne's stated the two fights he wants most are Wilder and Whyte* why on Earth would you turn down a fight with the WBC #3? Win this and he could be in position for a WBC final eliminator if Breazeale beats Stiverne.

    Whyte deserves respect if he takes on the big punching Miller.

    They are talking about this for half a year, Miller wants big money, I doubt this happens.

    If Whyte doesn't improve his defense, Miller will stop him.

    Miller by late TKO.

    I like this fight, I wanna see Miller take
    some shots from Whyte to prove what I suspect
    from him, that his size can absorb damn near
    any incoming artillery fire. I also wanna see how
    he walks down Whyte, A lot of questions can be
    answered in this one.

    Good fight.

    No way Dilon is going to risk his 30-0 record against such a dangerous opponent who isn't even so highly rated LMAO

    Whyte should refuse to do another good fight on an AJ undercard.
    Whyte should let AJ carry his own show, see how long it takes for the casuals to grow weary of the AJ fights.
    AJ is the big attraction but Hearn knows there's only so many one-sided or quick ko fights he can get away with against dull contenders before numbers start to dip. But as long as he has guys like Dillian taking up the slack and putting on a barn burner, the punters are fully satisfied.
    Unless Whyte gets a guarantee that he's on a final eliminator and up next for an AJ rematch, or a percentage of pay per view (extremely unlikely) he'd be a fool to let himself be used like that.

    I really hope this one comes off.

    I think Whyte could get knocked out here. Baby Miller is very heavy handed and pressurises and I do not think Whyte has the power to keep him off.
