    Got to give some credit to Whyte. He wanted extra money to promote the fight, and he got it.

    Hearn will absolutely detest that someone else has a stadium fight in the UK that will have everyone’s eyes on rather than whatever he’s doing. He will hate it - DAZN viewing figures in the UK are not great and this will anger him.

    Hearn says this about every fury fight. It’s weird

    Hahaha, he put the same message up on IG. Look at the formality and simplicity of the message. Whyte is thick as sh*t so he clearly didn’t type that nor put it out on his own volition. Whyte obviously wanted to remain completely silent throughout the entire run up to the fight like Ronda Rousey did in her last fight but Frankie Boy has him by the balls and forced him to adhere to his contractual obligations.

    Another W for Warren over Whyte’s lunatic lawyer.

    Ducking your opponent at press conferences is a new one. Simple boy Dillian can't open his mouth against Tyson as he'll get destroyed. See if he ducks the final press conference.

    It's nothing to do with Frank or the fight contract. Look at it closely.

    Dillian is sponsored by the supplement company (oh the irony) and they have their branding over the video and a namecheck on the tweet. They likely have some social media mentions contracted in the build-up to a fight and Whyte is fulfilling his end.

    I thought it was a clip from the A-Team where they build a contraption to break out of jail.

    Yep. He posted an advert for Vow Nutrition (which they almost certainly paid for) and mentioned that he is due to fight soon, so technically promoting the fight.

    The irony of him calling someone thick as s***t when he can’t even see that it’s blatantly a promotional video for a sponsor and not for the fight itself.

    Agreed. Claims everyone else is bitter but he’s more bitter than them all.

    People here are berating Whyte for neutralising Fury's greatest asset - the pre fight mind games. It's working, see the frustration from Fury. The fact that there's debate over whether the fight will even happen highlights the success of Dillians approach
