    For the love of all that is good and holy in this world, do not match him against anyone with a decent uppercut.

    He could fight Hrgovic and lose, just like he did with Povetkin first time.

    Rematch with Joseph Parker.

    Winner to fight Joyce.

    Loser to fight Arslanbek!

    Hrgovic is not enough old, eddie should find someone enough old for him.

    I never want to see Parker box again. The guy is dull dull dull. He has had too many chances.

    Joyce or Arslanbek deserve their shot now.

    I don’t know why he’s fighting in September as the winner of Fury/ Wilder should be giving Whyte a crack at the WBC period

    I would like to see him fight Andy Ruiz or Luis Ortiz.

    I'm not sure I see the point in him fighting Ortiz in a way...

    If Whyte wins, Ortiz is old & shot, plus never had a decent resume to begin with - so no real credit for winning.
    And if Ortiz wins, Whyte has lost to another old man who's clearly past his best - so another major career knock.

    Sure it might be an interesting bout, but I don't see him wanting to take it.

    Whyte-Joyce makes more sense.

    Heck, in some ways Pulev makes more sense than Ortiz too (though still old and past his best)
