    That's why Whyte has everyone's respect as you know he'd step in and fight anyone tomorrow.
    I like the guy as he seems to have a good grasp on things as appose can't lose mentality.

    Probably right but still on account of him being active and looking like he's fully healed from his shoulder injury imo it would make him a good opponent for Wilder as he'd give him some good work I believe.

    At this point, it's a big money fight relatively, that this would supposedly be, makes the most sense. I don't consider it to be a dangerous fight but a lot in the UK do and they are paying the bills on this one. Fans want to believe in triangle theory which is bunk, so be it.

    I think it's going to be the big pole Adam Kownacki unless Showtime accepts Stiverne.

    When he knocked out Szpilka, people on this forum went apeszit over how much better he is than Wilder, so there should be no complaint from the haters.

    Kownacki I'd be buzzing with that actually.

    Defo mate. I used to hate whyte but you ve got to respect his i m gonna win attitude. Bit like chisora when hes in the mood. Whytes maybe not the best heavyweights in the world but reckon he,d give anyone a decent go. No one wants to see stiverne again. Whyte would actually be a great build up for a wilder v joshua fight unless he causes the upset. Lets be honest wilders chins not exactly solid.

    I guess things could be a lot worse, but personally I'm not that interested. I just don't rate Whyte highly.

    No he's like every other fighter chasing the $$$, he won't even rematch Chisora even though the majority of people think he lost.

    He wants a kings ransom to fight Chisora again. Now I am not saying he's a coward but he certainly isn't going above and beyond to fight the fights the fans want.

    Whyte is no more noble than your Wilders, Stevensons, AJs, GGGs, Canelos and Eubank Jr's.

    Anyone will fight anyone if the reward is great enough for the risk and the contractual boxes are ticked.

    Seriously, is there any top 10 heavyweight you genuinely believe is clean?

    Whyte took some banned supplement which wasn't a traditional PED. It was DMAA in a pre-workout drink Jack3d.

    There isn't a fat lot in it imo...Whyte is better than all of Wilders opponents to date or shoulder to shoulder with them any way. Again, we have the situation where Wilders stuck for an opponent and he would be offered 4 x his usual purse plus exposure to build up the AJ fight if it was over here! There isn't one negative reason why Wilder shouldn't take this fight IF he thinks he can beat Whyte. The only stumbling block is Wilders confidence !

    Wilder will only fight winos from the alley, funny............not one of Wilder's winos tested positive for anything because they were not a threat. Old Man Ortiz was taking prescription drug for high blood pressure, doctor in Florida said he does't understand why VADA would call it a PED! Ortiz might be old, but he was a threat to Wilder, so they had to protect him, same when they framed Povetkin and VADA cleared Povetkin, but the WBC has a job to do, that's protect Wilder........................Wilder's next opponent will be a wino from the alley. Blood pressure meds, what a joke!
