I was probably the chief criticiser when Wallin was announced as a Fury opponent. But he surprised me, not just because he cut Fury either. He shown that he definitely belongs in a top 15/20 mix at heavyweight. Whyte has flattered to deceive at times and at others has looked good, he’s a hard one to call. You never know what Dillian you’re going to get on the night. I think as someone said earlier it will be an ugly fight but I think Whyte will edge it on the cards. 2/3 rounds in it.
This fight intrigues me. Wouldn't surprise me if it went either way and that's why I'm looking forward to it.
Whyte has to win for him and Matchroom, I think it’s a fairly dangerous fight for him and credit to him for fighting Wallin.
Rivas was a young undefeated HW with ambition and Whyte won a hard fought decision over him You could argue Parker was a half decent win too Joey's only loss was to AJ and he was at one point a holder of one of the credible world titles (WBA) although there's a lot of people who had JP winning that in the record books it's a win for The Deluxe Pudding So yeah for all his deserved criticism Whyte has been in with opponents that were there to win rather than just collect a payday
Let’s not be silly , Whyte wins this one. Wallin is an on boxer but has no power, Whyte won’t have a problem trying to get stuck into him.
To be fair that shot from Povetkin would of put most to sleep. Your hate for Whyte is so strong you're talking nonsense. I'm really looking forward to this fight . If Whyte knocks him out Fury fanboys are going to go into meltdown. I think it's going to be a close fight but I expect Whyte to win
Whyte has an average chin, he has been visibly hurt on too many occasions to remember, he has been dropped several times and knocked out brutally twice.
One of the biggest weaknesses with whyte is he has a poor gas tank but from the two fight’s of wallin he has one to so I’m not sure if he can take advantage of it. The left hook of whytes is key in this fight as you all know it’s a great weapon to have against a southpaw when they circle to your left hand side to stay away from the right. I could see both scoring knockdowns and whyte getting a controversial points decision.
The advantage for Whyte is that Wallin appears to carry little power. The disadvantage for Whyte is that Wallin appears to be more economical with how he boxes and therefore can enter the Championship rounds with more in the tank, something Whyte struggles with.
Lol, if Whyte beats him.. will you still refer to him as the young hungry lion that's a southpaw in his prime who gave Fury fits ? Or will you slate the win by saying he's an unproven Fury left over ?
