    Well, let's be fair, Dillian fights in the UK at HW so he can stay domestic and still climb the rankings AND earn a ton of $.
    He has earned the right and deserves every penny but a similar fighter from Peru (for example) can't just follow the "Whyte blueprint" to success.
    His morally superior route to the title is afforded to him by his circumstances, given that fighting at Heavyweight in the small, densely populated UK capital ATM is probably the best situation for a pro boxer in all of history.
    I mean, even a modicum of talent can set you AND your kids up for life: see Dave Allen.

    It's crap. I'm getting to the point where an upset to any of the the " big three " would be okay with me.

    I think Wilder doesn't want to fight Fury again or Joshua at all. Joshua is a bit wary of Fury. Fury's latest choice is a joke for a title defense.

    Simples. If they get whupped then Wilder is MORE likely to fight them.
