I dont think Dillian will be the same again
To lose like that against a guy he genuinely dislikes and on such a big stage will be devastating.
Mentally it's got to be very very hard to overcome.
Whyte genuinely believed he was going to win tonight and put in a monumental effort. He fought until he genuinely had nothing to give. Then he got laid out on the canvas.
He was losing the fight as well and his chin will be definitely be dented after that too. Beaten in absolutely every respect tonight. He's gained everyones respect though.

Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
He comes across to me as someone who is too stubborn to be mentally affected by a loss, but we'll see. Chisora-Whyte is a fight I want to see.
Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
Hopefully Whyte gets into shape. There is more he could offer.

Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
I think he will be as mentally crushed as he was physically. His one claim to fame has been reversed in brutal fashion. He'll emerge from hiding to sound off about Joshua and discharge a long litany of excuses soon enough.
A nasty and unpleasant yob.

Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
He's got no excuses though has he really? He was beaten in every department and then knocked out. I actually think he will emerge and give Joshua respect as a boxer and take the loss on the chin. I don't see him as a sore loser. Could be wrong though. I wonder if he would want a rematch?

Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
Dillian will be back, he seems like a good guy from what I've seen from his interviews with IFL etc.
He needs to get himself signed up to a promoter (maybe the Sauerlands?) and build himself back to a rematch.
Price or Cornish next and build from there...

Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
Because I dont think Chisora has any chance, yet they'll big it up as Joshuas biggest challenge yet... I would much rather see Pricey or even Hughie Fury next!Horse wrote:Why are you afraid by that?PokerRob wrote:I think we're gonan be looking at Joshua vs Chisora next Im afraid!

I think it could be a Whyte rematch.

What is your problem?
Do you have a mental deficiency?

Del boy would take him a few rounds, he's durable and experienced and would certainly make AJ work but without a significant dig to deter AJ I see him struggling.
Derek from 4 years ago would would have given him a really hard night but I think most agree his best days are behind him. I don't see him providing any greater a challenge than Whyte did.
Whyte vs chisora would be interesting.

Also, don't forget that every Joshua fight from now on will be PPV so future opponents should also be reflective of that.
Yes, I understand that they need to be the "right" opponents for his development but Eddie has changed the rules, so therefore other rules do not apply and opponents need to be credible.
You can't have a top if the bill PPV boxer facing below standard opposition, whereas they could get away with it if he was a support bout on a Sky undercard.

Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
Next up for Dillian Whyte has got to be David Haye
Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
Mentally he seems fine to me... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Z7OBhOEFsQ
Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
I like Dillian & hope he's not affected by this bout mentally or physically.
He's not world class but on the other hand world class isn't world class anymore
Whyte v Arreola on the undercard of the Fury Klitschko rematch would mean there was at least one interesting fight on the bill.

Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
He'll be fine. Shake it off, use it as a motivation.
Plenty to work on but plenty to work with.
Entertaining fight which answered a few questions but left plenty as both were stepping up so we still don't know how far they can go.

Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
If Chisorasaurus's chin isn't broken from David Haye (there's been a few times its looked like it has been). Then I would put my money on him to beat Joshua. Let's not forget his last loss was against a guy who just derailed the reigning HW king not some bum. He's looked like he's had a severe lack of ambition but I'm not convinced he is as shot as people are implying.PokerRob wrote:Because I dont think Chisora has any chance, yet they'll big it up as Joshuas biggest challenge yet...

It all depends if he can still take a shot imo.
Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
My worry is not only might he not take a shot too well, I don't think he carries the power Whyte does to deter AJ.Finn wrote:If Chisorasaurus's chin isn't broken from David Haye (there's been a few times its looked like it has been).

He'd be a good test and work out for Anthony, providing he still takes a shot as well as he once did. But he isn't the fighter he once was IMO and would take punishment.
I wasn't too impressed with what I've seen from Derek of late (just watched his last 2 fights on youtube). This is a match up that would certainly make more sense for AJ than Derek

Re: I dont think Dillian will be the same again
He'll come back better. His estimation has gone up tenfold, and after looking like it might be over in a round, he comes back showing heart, mental strength, chin and gave the mighty AJ a huge scare. A lot of fighters would've crumbled on that stage, but DW showed he is made of the right stuff.
Everyone is going to be very interested to see his return fight, and I think they're going to build him up. If you're a heavyweight, and half decent, there's a lot of mileage to be had.
Look how desperate they are for heavyweights, continually wheeling out Delboy Chisora
