    Am I really? See I made sure NOT to do that by reading the title "Boxers turning pro with little to no amateur bouts"

    And Whyte fits that description PERFECTLY.

    If what I mentioned didn't actually happen, and I am in the wrong universe? Then yeah maybe I am losing my mind.

    Send me back to my universe, where the WBC Champ is a chump, and Whyte beat Parker/ Rivas.

    He does. Good example, but you’re hammering it home and continuing to take on all comers regarding Whyte with another thread also on the go. I’m trying to be polite.

    Isn’t Gassiev’s amateur experience also very limited?

    Yeah I am well aware people are sick of hearing about Whyte, so I am not injecting him into random threads, I am reading the title first and double checking my sanity before bringing up Whyte into the discussion.

    I did a good job in this instance, thank you for being polite, I extend the same courtesy to you.

    Whyte also had Thai Boxing / Kick-boxing experience before he boxed amateur so had more competitive experience before turning pro than just his amateur record suggests

    You called Whyte the most dangerous man in the heavyweight division and listed off silver and interim belts as though they're a notable achievement. It's tragically desperate tbh. I don't dislike Whyte or you but you're over the top to say the least.

    "You called Whyte the most dangerous man in the heavyweight division" and where did I say this???

    They are notable achievement for someone who posters say will never win a title, is irrelevant, will lose soon, won't amount to anything, aint on the same level etc etc.
