Some people just talk BS dude - Rivas is a very good win for anyone, and Dillian fought well on Saturday. If Wilder beat Rivas and had even half of Whyte's resume his fans would be labeling him and ATG, Wilder has fought 1 prime opponent (Fury) and got humiliated. Rooting for someone can often be mistaken for bias, there's nothing wrong with backing your main man!
Whyte has the best chance of winning the fight, other than Fury of course.. He is game and whoever lands first take it.
If Whyte felt the same he wouldn't have ducked Ortiz when Ortiz was trying to step in as an opponent previously.
Whyte looks like a drunk fighting and imaginary person after a few too many but no one can agrue he isn't effective. His CV would have to be the best over the last couple of years, only AJ prob has a better one but Whyte isn't far off.. Rivas was known as a good boxer and Whyte outboxed him... Wilder has nothing more than that right hand and if Whyte's team (who seem pretty professional tbh) develope a plan to get around it I can see them getting a win... Just remember Fury beat Wilder and it was only corruption that saved him...
Can't stand Wilder but Whyte has been insanely lucky to have not lost his last 3 fights. Obviously both have the power to KO the other but Wilder inside 6. I think Whyte might actually be ahead but eventually he gets hurt, swarmed and stopped. Similarly to Washington or Szpilka.
Whyte has a very good resume, but let's be real here. He should have lost the first Chisora fight and won a spectacular come from behind ko in the rematch. He should have lost the Parker fight, but got the nod due to a bogus KD, and Rivas is a good win but it could have ended badly for him too. With a little less luck he would have been 22-5 now instead of 26-1. He knows how to get a win in a hard fight, that's for sure, but he also had quite a bit of luck.
Not really luck that got him through those tough bouts, more grit and survival smarts. Every fighter walks a knife edge like this. Wilder could have had a ton of losses by now if things had gone a little differently in some of his fights. It's those little things that you do in the heat of combat that separates the winners from the losers, not luck.
Lol. Someone should do an invisible opponent gif of him, a la Kirkland Canelo set against the backdrop of an alley. Would be indistinguishable from the real thing.
He would have lost to Parker if not for crap judging, a bogus knockdown and even then he was saved by the bell in the 12th. He needed to rally late against a badly faded Chisora - maybe not luck but it says a lot about what level of a fighter he is. He almost lost last weekend as well. Obviously Whyte has heart and is better than credited as being but the stars have aligned for this streak to occur. I wouldn't be shocked if he lost to someone who isn't as good as Parker, Rivas or even Chisora sooner rather than later nevermind Wilder.
Against Parker it was clearly luck and home advantage. Most in the RbR scored it for Parker even with the bogus 10-8 round. Against Chisora 1 he was lucky to have 2 judges that scored it in his favor. Again, most in the RbR scored it for Chisora. For the other fights you could question if it was luck or his ability to get it out of the fire, but those fights he got lucky to get the nod. (ok, not completely lucky as he was the featured fighter against Chisora and the house fighter against Parker, as that's usually just blatant favoritism from the officials)
The same faded Chisora that KOd Takam, Spilka, and beat young up and coming cat Gashi??? Sit down mate. How ****ing faded is he,if he is doing stuff that even the prime beasts of today are struggling to do, GTFO. You just WISH Chisora was faded... he's looking the strongest he has ever been...
The same Chisora who was practically shut out before scoring a come from behind KO, Szpilka has a glass jaw and was stopped in 4 by Kownacki, barely survived/beat Wach - Gashi? LOL. Talk about reaching! Chisora is most certainly not at his peak. That was almost 10 years ago when he was going up against the likes of Helenius, Klitschko and Haye. Sorry but youre only hyping current Chisora out of proxy because he's a scalp that your BF struggled to deal with.
