    I don't rate Parker particularly highly, but he would beat Whyte. And Wilder would definitely beat Whyte.

    Bellew? He's not a HW and Haye would've beat him easily enough. And I don't rate Haye as high as most. Bellew vs Whyte would be a bit harder to gauge.

    Would like to see Whyte - Bellew, IMO it makes sense for a good UK scrap, makes sense for seeing where both are in the HW mix.

    Probably right but still you gotta respect how he believes he can beat Wilder and even then Whyte would be an improvement on Wilders recent opponents no?

    Slight favorite over Bellew

    Wilder most likely beats Whyte
    Parker is the favourite for me, too
    60/40 for Whyte vs Bellew

    Whyte is overrated by many based on his one-round success vs AJ who got careless and forgot about defense.
    AJ from Klitschko fight stops Whyte in 2 rounds.

    Whyte is right on today's Chisora level which was shown in their fight.

    That means he's even not as good as Pulev

    Whyte might knock Wilder out, but Wilder would require Whyte to become a wino from the alley to qualify.................

    You've never seen a version of Bellew that Whyte wouldn't beat. Wishful thinking. He simply hasn't the power, and Whyte would walk through him like any average heavy

    Whyte?

    • Win a wide decision against Bellew
    • Loses a decision to Parker
    • And gets chinned after winning every round against Wilder in the 8th round.
    He is fringe world level IMO

    • He lost against Chisora and got a dodgy decision
    • He is best known for getting knocked the truck out by AJ

    It was obvious when Whyte fought Joshua that he was not going about things very professionally. He clearly didn't have the same opportunities as AJ and the same access to trainers, nutritionists etc. Since the AJ fight and signing with Matchroom he has looked more and more like a boxer, and has gotten himself into better and better shape. It's also clear he will fight anyone and is tough as old boots. I also think he beats Chisora more convincingly if they were to meet again.

    For these reasons I don't want to just write him off as never going past domestic or gatekeeper level, especially when the HW division is so poor. I'd give him a good chance against anyone outside Wlad, Joshua and a healthy Fury.
