No one knows who's Usyk

Usyk is not yet a big money fight in the heavyweight division. He's a risk for little money and I think thats what Whyte means. Whyte is due a title shot against Joshua or Wilder IMO. Everyone wants more money and thats with the big dogs as always.

 

Yeah, that's essentially what I took from that, not that Whyte is pretending to literally not know who Usyk is. He could have worded it better, but that's never going to be Whyte's strong suit, so you have to read between the lines a little when it comes to his statements.

To be honest, as much as I dislike Whyte, he's put in the hard graft of late and has put himself into pole position for a title shot against either Joshua or Wilder. He shouldn't have to fight anyone else before he gets his opportunity, certainly not someone like Usyk who'd put him no closer to a title fight and could very well beat him. Once Usyk has established himself at HW I'm sure Whyte would have no problems facing him. It's clearly a risk/reward thing to him.

 

Up up oop du dup fi ! Is he punchy?

 

Usyk one of the top 3 p4p. Anyone who does not know him should watching curling instead

 

If Whyte was as smart as you seem to think he is, you'd think he would be calling for the Joshua rematch in April 2019 at Wembley. That, right there, is his real pot of gold -- much more so than a fight with Breazeale.

As much as I'm not sold on Whyte and can't see what all the fuss is about, he's on a good string of wins, and should be chasing either Joshua or Wilder next. After outhustling Parker, Breazeale next would be a step down for Whyte.

 

They did when Usyk became Undisputed Cruiserweight champion and cleaned the division out.

So, if Usyk is looking to move up to Heavyweight -- a division people definitely do care about -- does that mean that you will then care about Usyk by default?

Do you ever post anything remotely sensible here?

 

How AJ didn't train for the left hook if Wlad was missing with it all night long?

 

It’s bollocks he just beat bellew on ppv.
Whyte talking out his arse.

 

Hmm... it "kind of" makes sense for Whyte to go after Breazeale next, even though it's a match-up most of us don't really care about. It's clear that Matchroom would like to get ahold of Wilder's WBC strap before Fury (potentially) takes it. Wilder has recently stated that if Fury doesn't fight him next, he'll face Breazeale instead in his next fight. Whyte going after Breazeale takes DB off of the table for Wilder... and it should also remove DB from his current WBC mandatory spot.

On another note, any HW fighters claiming to "not know who Usyk is" are funny. They will be educated after Oleksandr transitions to HW.

 

lol ain't no one gonna dare come to Brixton and try anything with these jamaicans. Dillian has no problem with a street fight and he will kick someones legs in K1 style.

Have you not seen the post Chisora rematch fight interviews... he really really wants AJ... he doesn't want anyone else but he aint going to wait like miller or breazeale either. He won't let AJ dictate his career for him. Whyte worked his way up... and small chance AJ gets Wilder next in April... and no one will respect AJ if he doesn't fight Wilder, Fury or Whyte next.

Usyk would not take a fight with Whyte right now,.and if you.don't believe me go and ask Usyks team. They will say not now.

And Whyte is not disrespecting Usyk in his abilit6... and he stated himself he would not Box Usyk... he would fight him.like Parker.
Whyte doesn't want Breazeale next... it is an unwanted back up option. He desperately wants AJ ....and Whyte stormed out the ring when AJ wouldn't Confirm April... and he reiterated this in no less than 3 post fight interviews.

So don't make it like Whyte is chasing Breazeale... he is chasing AJ and Wilder... but he can't put a gun to their head and say fight me now rasclart.

 

Please take your sarcasm detector for repair.

Whyte was being sarcastic... he is a true boxing fan and knows very well how decorated Usyk is... but from a heavyweight business perspective Usyk is a nobody... and not a draw. That's all he meant. He needs bug fights now and money.

He stated he would never box Usyk he would fight him like Parker... a testament from Whyte on Usyks boxing prowess.

 

Not all left hooks are created equal. Whyte left hooked Brown to oblivion... and made references to his own left.hook power ever since the AJ fight.

Yet Parker and Chisora failed to avoid it?

Dillian states you can train all day for his left hook but he will still land it and it will still put you out.

Catching Chisora and Parker with that hook is testament enough to the power and delivery of it.

AJ will be no different... how many hooks did he eat from Povetkin???? Millions.

Now tell me AJ is gonna survive a 2018 Whyte ?
Please say it.

 

Lol, he said that ??? Every time I see Dillian Whyte he looks like he's dribbling, or has Chicken all round his mouth. His eating habits are a disgrace, that's before you take a proper look at him and realise, mans got learning difficulties
"Morning Dillian"
He replies with a look of pure confusion lol " Errr, what ??? Oh yeah, yeah its morning isn't it, yeah " still looking confused

 

Solid post, even though it would not surprise me if we somehow end up seeing Whyte against Breazeale next, in the event that both AJ and Wilder find different opponents for their upcoming defenses.

I don't see how Hearn could entice Breazeale out of taking his WBC title shot though (if Fury doesn't take his rematch with Wilder next). Stranger things have happened in boxing, so we'll see. Though if an AJ-Miller fight comes off for MSG, then it would be interesting to see what happens if Hearn somehow got Whyte-Breazeale made on that undercard.
