    With an eight fight win streak since he's dramatic loss to current champ Anthony Joshua, Dillian has worked tirelessly to climb back up the ranks, into title contention.

    If anyone truly deserves a title shot at this stage, It's Dillian. But even Dillian concedes that he might need just one more "tune up" fight before a money making title bout with either Wilder or Joshua.

    Dillian made a critical mistake in the 12th round with Parker, in trying to trade when he was already up on the cards, and I think that made him think twice before diving in with Joshua.

    He also made a mistake in coming 15 pounds heavy against Parker as a result of a short training camp.

    I think he has what it takes to beat a world champ today, but the question is does he take an easy tune up or does he raise the stakes?

    Parker was a dangerous fight, but he made it through....

    who do you think he's tune up fight should be prior to title shot?.. What does he need to learn?


    Miller
    Charr
    Fury
    Breazeale
    Ortiz
    Pulev
    Bellew
    Chisora
    Oquendo
    Takam
    Washington
    Martin

    He needs to fight Ortiz! But we all know that Eddie the coward won't allow that

    Ortiz would be a high stakes fight for him, trade off is he can experience the danger of a good opponent before title shot...

    But if he loses... could be a long fall down.

    I can see him fighting against Manuel Charr for the regular WBA title.

    From a learning perspective this fight wouldn't make sense because Manuel Charr is a shithouse, he's a greasy
    slob who couldn't crack an egg when his life would depend on it, let's see if he can beat Fres Oquendo in the first
    place in september.

    I would like to see him fight Miller or Breazeale.

    Hahahaha yeah good description of Charr absolutely useless... real tough guy outside the ring, acts so big, but never delivers in the ring LOL.

    Easy fight for Dillian, and there's a WBA belt in there I guess. Dillian stacking silver belts lol doing something at least.

    Easy tune up - Charr, raise the stakes? Probably Ortiz.

    Rematches with Chisora and Parker.

    Whyte don't want that work though.

    Ah, i'm not that confident in Whyte beating Ortiz at the moment, he could do it but i would like him to gain more
    experience before he gets in the ring with him. He should fight the Millers and Breazeales of the world first.
    When it comes to Ortiz he is still on the "He's not ready train" for me, just don't have a good feeling about this
    fight at the moment.

    Both Whyte and Parker would beat Ortiz in my honest opinion.

    Charr vs. Whyte would make for epic press conferences, that much is for sure.

    Breazeale pour s'assurer qu'il est obligatoire, en plus de faire face à un top solide 15

    I wouldn't consider Miller, Ortiz, Fury or Pulev "tune ups", as all of them would be damn close to either matching or even bettering his win over Parker. Nor do I think a Bellew fight is possible considering the scouse is so set on one of Fury, Usyk or Ward.

    Of the rest, Chisora could net him a nice fat payday, Breazeale would be the safest option for his resume in terms of risk/reward and boost his US profile a little and Charr would be an option to win the regular belt. Though I don't consider it a true world title, alongside his WBC Silver and WBO International Whyte would become the unified "almost champion" of the world.

    None of the other names really bring anything to the table, Martin is on his own comeback trail, Takam's reputation lies in tatters thanks to his own poor fight plan, Washington should NEVER have been a contender to begin with and Oquendo is a bad fart that just keeps lingering.

    From a fan's perspective I think Ortiz or Chisora II would be the most enticing, from his own though it will probably end up being one of Breazeale, Chisora or Charr. I'd be pleasantly shocked if it was anybody from the upper bracket of names, and downright disappointed if it was anybody from the lower bracket.

    Ortiz, obviously. But he'll duck him

    Whyte deserves a legitimate world title shot, his little run of wins is better than most heavyweights BEFORE getting a world title shot.

    As for what's next, Charr is a good fight, regular title, it's not amazing but it works.

    I believe Whyte will fight Joshua in April, if Wilder won't deal now, he just won't deal so they have a date, a venue and a PPV date to fill so he'll probably get the shot.

    Wilder won't fight Whyte, Wilder wants a fight before Fury and 8 million isn't enough apparently but Breazeale and probably around 2 million is enough.

    anyway, I don't think Whyte needs a tough test, Helenius, Browne and Parker is good enough for a world title shot in my opinion so he needs a little tick over fight and then a world title shot next year.
