Does DIllian Whyte have what it takes to be world champion?

I think he beats Wilder handily, he'll be the first guy that Wilder has fought that can actually fight and take a punch at heavyweight . Szpilka is the best win Wilder has and he isn't close to being a top heavyweight.

 

This. At the world level Whyte doesn't stand out. Everything about Whyte is average except his stamina, which is awful. He is Pulev or Jennings level.

 

guys like Whyte are needed, because, despite never reaching above a certain level, they bring entertainment to the division

 

Whyte's punch resisitance is a bit overrated, as was shown by Chisora, who had him badly hurt numerous times.

Chisora isn't a hard hitter, 6 of 10 in terms of punching power.

 

I think they are slightly better than Whyte. Better stamina for sure

 

Hes just as skilled as Wilder,so yes.

 

Exactly. This is what we love boxing for. No matter where you come from, even if your skill level is a tad below elite. If show heart and dedication, you can win boxing fan's hearts.

 

Well if he can wobble the IBF champ Joshua then yeah it's possible. Through Joshua it's possible very remote chance though. I rate Joshua and Parker better than Wilder but stylistically, I see Wilder beating Whyte comfortably.

 

AJ has no questions? really?

 

Not long term, but when you have four dudes claiming to be the man instead of 1 or 2 then he could coast on a belt like Wilder has albeit I'm not sure he's as good as Wilder.

 

I think Whyte vs Parker is very competitive, although I make 60/40 for Parker I wouldn't put my house on it.

 

Makes no sense. Parker is a champion and is a 50/50 fight if Whyte fights him. because he breaths heavy after the third round in all his fights. he would potentially be in trouble like he with takam breathing Heavy ,but Whyte is a puncher,Takam is not.

 

massive difference being world champion and being a belt holder!

 

Whyte was gassed against Chisora at times too.

 

That was after throwing so many punches in the fight.Certainly parker wouldnt put that Pressure on whyte because hes not that type of fighter ...he fights in spurts. Whyte was pressured the entire time. If parker gasses against a bigger Whyte by rnd 4 he will lose. Whytes stamina is very good,hes gone the more rnds and is the slicker boxer.He also went 7 with joshua which tells me he can take a punch even though he was rocked the entire time.
