Exactly, what a terrible job Hearn is doing. Ballchin sees exactly what he wants to see , calls fury “a successful defence” lol
Rivas won't be as hard as you think for Dillian... Dillian is a level or two above Oscar in terms of battle experience and seasoning. Rivas is going to be in a world of trouble against a puncher when they start exchanging... because Whyte has several tools in his arsenal that have proven to take down granite chinned, stubborn as hell, seasoned pro's. Rivas has never been there, and he will fold like an ironed shirt.
So even if Whyte does, somehow, beat Fury... then what? What guarantee is there that he faces Wilder? Wilder could make him wait two years... then force Whyte to either fight more opponents on sit on his arse and train like Brezeale and Stiverne.... It's all pathetic stalling tactics.
If Fury guarantees the 50/50 against Widler with his diamond belt (without the dubious incidents which would come with a "50/50" PBC show otherwise) then this is a smart move by Fury in reality. Wide UD while Whyte chases shadows all night. Hat off to Whyte though, boy has no fear of losing.
I dunno, I think he may end up catching and stoping whyte in a shoot out. Rivas beat Andy Ruiz and pulev at the olympics, he’s no mug
Not for me he isn’t, nevertheless I would accept Fury vs Pulev coz it’s not a bad fight on paper but the other names they have thrown around aren’t great at all.
Yeah he is no mug, but that was then... way back then... and this is now. Whyte has put in the graft, been in the wars, and got all the accolades, war stripes, experience, fine tuning... and proven power. As of late, Whyte looks superior. It will be a good fight... but like I said, when Whyte turns up the heat... not many can survive it.
How is a guy who went life and death with chisora even relevant to the top 3? Outside of the top 5 (Ortiz and povetkin), the rest have no chance and are only used as a measuring stick to see which of the 3 could beat the other more impressively.
