Wallin > Whyte

Top 10 how?' The most notable thing he has done is beating Breazeale.

 

Yep. Take Breazeale out the equation and in the last 5 years Wallin has beat a long list of nobodies.....like Gianluca Mandras, Srdan Govedarica, Adrian Granat and Travis Krauffman. The atrocious performance put up by Fury in 2019 has somehow made people think Wallin is good

 

Fury had one eye for 11 rounds and Wallin couldn't do anything with him. What else has he done?

 

You think Whyte is better by "quite some distance" than a 5-year, 10-defence reigning WBC champion?? Whyte has never even had a title fight for god's sake.

And the bookies have Fury as the 1/6 or 1/7 favourite, compared to the Wilder trilogy when Fury was only a 4/11 favourite, and rightly so because Wilder is far more dangerous than Whyte.

 

100%, and Whyte himself knows that. That's why Dodgy Dill suddenly realised he had a "shoulder injury" 10 days before the Wallin fight.

 

Wilder fought low level opposition. Look at huge difference in quality of opposition that two fought.

One beat Povetkin, Parker, Chisora x 2 and Helenius.

The other Ortiz x 2, Duhaupas, Spzilka and Washington.

There's a huge gulf in quality of opponents.

Wilders lack of ambition and being a protected fighter should not earn him credit.

 

Exactly. Wallin isn't a bad fighter. He has potential, but he has done nothing notable to be considered a top level fighter as of now. I hope he gets more opportunities though to back up an creditable performance against Fury.

 

So Whyte is better than Wallin yet he was terrified of fighting him and faked an injury? Lol

 

Not a chance mate, not a chance.

 

Whyte has received massive promotion from Matchroom, whereas Wallin had absolutely no fanfare until he gave Fury a tough fight. Money and politics are the primary factors in determining which fighters get pushed and thus get the big fights: Hrgovic would smoke Whyte but he hasn't got anyone to fight him and is far lower in the "rankings". Wallin is also seen as high risk, low reward, which is why the likes of Martin, mid-40's Ortiz and Whyte himself ducked him. It's obvious though that Wallin has many advantageous attributes, superior to Whyte in pretty much every respect aside from punching power.

 

Even if you count the first Wilder fight as a draw, Whyte probably still wouldn't be in Fury's top 5 wins: Wallin and 2x cruiser champ Cunningham in America are both better fighters imo. You have to rate Whyte above a non-shopworn Chisora though, primarily because Whyte is more dangerous (despite his more pronounced vulnerabilities).

 

Whyte is not capable of hitting Fury, he has no skills! Sloppy fmbrawler with good power and heart. Fury would box his head off.
