    Matchroom Boxings Twitter page have stated Dillian Whyte v Wach is going to be delayed due to Whyte picking up a foot injury.

    Hearn states he reckons it will be July now, doesn't want to risk Whyte not being 100% when he is on the verge of a World Title shot.

    Thoughts?

    Interesting, could be legit, or hearn could be up to something, both are equally as likely lol

    Exactly, especially with the whole Parker scenario, wouldn't be surprised if something was going on there.
    But as you said, its feasible he has injured himself training, guess we will know soon enough

    So I'm assuming that he'll face Kabayel for the European title in July now???

    The Parker scenario is what makes this the most suspicious, If there were no talk's and rumors around this i would not be batting an eye lid at this injury but the timing of this now is very coincidental lol

    Forget Parker & Whyte... You's are close.

    It's Parker/Bellew and Whyte is facing Chisora on the Degale/Smith PPV undercard.

    Would love to see Whyte V Chisora rematch, and up until the news about Whytes injury i would have thought Bellew was getting a crack at Parker.
    Im 70-30 that Bellew will get it and Whytes injury is genuine. But it is very coincidental.

    Chisora pulled out of his fight with Helinius too. Whyte/Chisora pencilled in as Eddie forked out the money as he needs to bolster the Smtih/DeGale PPV card

    As much as i would like to see the Whyte Chisora fight, The only way i see that happening is if the winner gets a mandatory world title shot afterwards. I just don't see whyte taking that fight at this point when hes so close to a title shot, Chirosra gave him a hard fight, He knows that's a 50/50 fight which could derail his title shot.

    Smith vs Degale? Is this confirmed, if so it's not a PPV worthy event but then Eddie will put anything on PPV?

    chisora vs helenius was cancelled almost simultaneously. count on whyte-chisora 2, with the winner getting an undeserved shot at joshua.

    Timing of this is too coincidental. I think a rematch is likely.

    Would have preferred to have seen Whyte smacked around by Parker though. Parker Bellew is a mismatch of epic proportions, although I expect the UK betting odds to pretty favourable given Bellew's win over Haye and Parker's underwhelming recent showings.
