    Turning down £5 million? Wow, he won't see that offer again, not based on last night anyway.

    And he might have had a chance of beating him on his previous form.

    Where does he go from here?

    He has dragged the WBC mandatory shot out for years now, so that won't happen anytime soon.

    Joshua will have to face mandatories.

    Ortiz is out for a while, Sasha will probably retire, Hunter beats him...

    Based on last nights performance he is gatekeeper level, at best.

    Hunter doesn’t beat the Whyte that beat Chisora , Parker and Rivas. Drew with an old man who AJ destroyed over a year ago.

    I wouldn't write Whyte off just yet.

    He came in far too heavy against Wach, but I would just put that down to the stress of the past 6 months with the drug case hanging over his head. I imagine he will be in better shape for his next fight.

    The man has had many a good outing since his defeat to AJ for me to write him off due to one bad fight. Particularly when there are extenuating circumstances for said poor performance.

    Anthony Fury-Klitschko on the hunt for puddings now for his final 3-4 fights so Whyte may still get his PPV loot

    Whyte would have been brutally KO again by Joshua... but yes it was a mistake, because he would have got a big payday.

    Whyte is not close to being elite, and never has been. He would get KTFO by Wilder, and toyed with by Fury.

    Whye took a fight at short notice showed up very overweight and looked it last night with a disappointing peformance. Whyte will be back in better dhape and back to his best in the next fight.

    I think Hearn will put Whyte against another top 15 in the WBC and make it PPV.

    The only is easy fight among the top 15 is Kownacki but PBC wont allow him to fight as their grooming him to be another padded record cherry pick for Wilder.

    I think Hearn will look to make Povetkin vs Whyte next year.

    He made far more money than that from the combined Chisora fights

    I could see Pov/Hunter v Whyte.

    Also, if Ruiz kicks up a stink about wanting the third fight (he doesn't deserve it after last night, but he could say he gave AJ a rematch, so he deserves one), then i could imagine Hearn throwing Whyte in with Ruiz to placate Ruiz. It's not the AJ fight, but Whyte v Ruiz is a good a non title fight as you can get at the minute.

    I reckon Dillian Whyte slept with your woman or something along those lines which would explain your baseless bashing of Diliian Whyte on this forum

    Both from the same town?

    Like I said tell me when you man up and want to bet that Whyte gets back into shape and beats top guys again

    I reckon Povetkin vs Whyte is a good litmus test considering how Hunter performed and Whyte can have enough time to get rid of any personal demons and start training hard again to rebuild for a relatively dangerous fight

    The Whyte that beat Chisora Rivas and Parker is the Whyte we know can hang with the top 3 and with a strong chance at beating them

    his performance against Wach wasnt spectacular but he still got the job done with his mental shape shot to pieces and coming in extremely overweight at 271 and still wasnt in trouble against Wach as he hurt Wach several times

    People need to flip the tables and ask how would Wilder or Fury or AJ do against Wach with the same mental demons Whyte had and weighing 270 pounds With 3. Weeks prep time

    He hammers the Whyte of last night, and that's the Whyte we should all come to expect now.

    Pov v a motivated and in shape Whyte is a very good fight. It would be great to watch, but as good as it would be, there's a part of me that doesn't want to see it. Whyte deserves a title shot. He's achieved as much as any other top contender. He really shouldn't have to face another top contender.

    Plus, I like Pov, but he is 40, and a fight with Whyte, win or lose, will be brutal. At his age, he doesn't need it. Personally, I would like to see Pov retire. He has achieved a lot over his career. Unfortunately, I can't see him retiring on a draw. Especially when there is still some decent money for him to make and add to his retirement fund.
