Actually no. It may have been before AJ took Whyte virginity, aka his chin and durability, but now NO! Whyte has no chin left, and a technical master like Usyk will school and KO him badly.
I honestly don't think Usyk gets out of sparring mode here. The only thing Whyte brings to the table in this bout is his gameness. His chin is severely damaged goods at world level now. Plus with whytes poor footwork and poor balance and lack of cutting off the ring ability he does a far worse job against Usyk than Chisora did imo. Should Usyk choose too, he clowns Whyte all night long and breezes to a huge UD. Or he if he wants too, he stops him anytime after the 5th or 6th round. Luckily for Whyte he'll never face Usyk.
Whyte looks to be on the decline, his last performance was terrible. Then again Chisora still gave Usyk more trouble than AJ. And Whyte > Chisora… at least pre 2020. I don’t think Whyte has the footwork to land anything meaningful unless he uses the same tactics in Parker fight to rough up Usyk like Chisora did with the grabbing and clinching. Whyte has nothing to lose now, literally don’t see why he wouldn’t go out there and get violent/rough. Still back Usyk at this point in time.
