    Default Tyson Fury must face Dillian Whyte next if he defeats Deontay Wilder, WBC confirm

    About fucking time but Povetkin is live in this fight as far as I'm concerned and could out hook Dillian and beat him.
    Don't see this one going past 5 rounds.

    Whyte has turned into a very decent heavyweight indeed, hasn't he?

    Big, strong, heavy handed with underrated skills, albeit slightly ponderous. He reminds me a lot of Hasim Rahman.

    He was giving Joshua all sorts of problems until he got caught first in a gunfight, which can happen to anyone. Since then, he has been one of the most avoided fighters in any weight division.

    He can cook as well, judging by his appearance on 'celebrity' Masterchef.

    Theres a lot to like about him, apart from the doping of course.

    He's come on loads since that AJ loss, knuckled down and fought non stop beating decent fighters, wonder how binning Tibbs will come into play if he's in a war and there's no familiar voice in the corner?
    He's still fairly open to a left hook which is Povetkins bread and butter and the punch Chisora was landing loads in fight 1.
    Also the punch AJ had success with.
    Gotta be careful early on, Povetkin had AJ rocking early on and is dangerous in the first half of any fight.
    Should be a belter while it lasts 😎

    I think Povetkin being that few years older than we saw against AJ is a big factor here and it's good timing for Whyte to face him now.

    I really don't rate Whyte all that much. He has had some good wins since his loss but he seems a bit of a plodding slugger to me. Not much to his game and he held on by the skin of his teeth against a live Parker.

    It's still an interesting bout though and he has definitely earned his shot for another title be it against Fury, AJ or Wilder.

    Fury was doping as well.

    So the only heavy not doping or not been caught is AJ.

    Whyte deserves to be champion.

    He has fought better opposition than Wilder.

    I had a thing for Wilder v Whyte style wise. He's done himself no favors with whatever banned garbage he put in his arse and blowing up to Macy Day float proportions last time out but I'd very much like to see Whyte get his crack. Quality fight v Povetkin with exchanges assured, think Whyte keeps it smart early and clips him midway.

    No problem with Whyte getting his shot just the gut feeling that we're going to miss the opportunity for Fury v Joshua at their peak. We've been here before....

    & if fury wins & goes in another direction they'll just roll out the franchise champion bullshit
    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    Deontay is such a sissy first name isn't it? DEON-TAY. Pure Black women bullshit creation. It's stupid. DEON-TAY! WTF?! What about George or Michael or James?
    Bigger man George, bigger punch!

    Deonte is a rare first name for men. Deonte is an equivalently rare last name too for all people. (2000 U.S. CENSUS)
    Deonte was first listed in 1980-1989 and reached its top rank of #482 in the U.S. in 1994, and is currently at #1968. (2018 BIRTH STATISTICS)

    Deontay is a phonetic spelling/misspelling, a not uncommon practice, but not "pure creation."




    as far as pure stupid creation, how would you rank "ykdadamaja?"

    Critical week for Fury-Wilder 3
    Top Rank hopes to put the rubber match between WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and former champion Deontay Wilder on Dec. 19 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas with a limited number of fans.

    Because of the coronavirus pandemic, Las Vegas’ convention business is struggling badly, putting the casinos in a terrible financial spot. And the National Finals Rodeo, which has been a huge financial windfall for the town and its casinos for more than 25 years, has been canceled.

    Thus, there is hope in the casino industry that the fight could occur at Allegiant Stadium with 10,000 to 15,000 fans well spaced.

    This week will be critical to that effort in getting it done.

    Fury is a -290 favorite at BetMGM. Wilder is +230.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
