Dillian Whyte vs. Ivica Bacurin - June 25th 2016

[jamesmcdonnell]

Chisora is mandatory for Helenius, so a fight with Whyte won't happen before this. If Chisora beats Helenius (entirely possible) he'll surely be hoping to defend against Joshua (his pension fund fight)

Chisora vs Whyte is an attractive fight but can you imagine the tedious build up, with both of them doing their 'Ghetto/Thug Life' act?

yea. it wont be Whytes next fight, but it will be one down the road I would imagine...

Unless Chisora has found some motivation, I expect Helenius to batter him. Chisora's punch resistance seems broken since Haye flattened him.

I agree that Chisora hasn't been the same since Haye sparked him but have you seen Helenius recently? He's not the fighter he was either, I have a feeling it could end up a horrible 12 round maul.

No, not got to see his last fights, you could well be right.

Helenius had an injury to what was it, his shoulder, which affected his punch power, he might be done.

David price,not that he needs to but it will be a confidence builder for him

[wesshaw1985]

de Mori could be a fun return fight for Dillian...

I would expect price to win that to be quite honest.

I'd be up for him Vs Haye.

that's what makes it a fun fight, I think its a proper 50/50.
Both good names, could get good money for the fight either in Liverpool or London.
They are both coming off losses, both have similar confidence I would imagine.
No need for confidence builders against bums, stick them in together asap...

[jamesmcdonnell]

I'd be up for him Vs Haye.

Makes sense as a fight for Haye, to bang the gong for a fight with Joshua, but not for Whyte, if his people have any confidence in his long term abilities, then putting in with Joshua and then Haye in rapid succession would be cruel and unusual punishment. Haye would do a number on him.

What I like about DW is he's always genuine.

and he ain't a bad fighter too , would give a lot of heavies trouble if he was properly fit .

i agree. i think fully fit, a bit less crude and he beats aj in a return fight

TBH I think Whyte is ready for Wilder if his shoulder is oke, I'm looking for a Molina fight just to step in again and a Parker ish fight right after. Perhaps Ortiz even after that (one year from now).

So basically you'd throw him in with 3 top level, undefeated heavies when he doesn't have a top 40 type win on his record?
Whyte's got good publicity from the AJ fight and can now afford to build towards British and European level while earning a few quid and improving. I'd say Sexton, Cornish, Towers, etc would be about right next up

[Taansend]

I love Dillian Whyte. He cracks me up big time.

Lol, just look at the skills, it's not that hard to see. Fury used to be the same story, there are many boxers ranked lower as Wilder or Martin that are in fact way better.

[samwbr]

Haye would be great fight.

[Syntax Error]

Why does Mark De Mori's name keep popping up in these polls?

We all saw in his 'bout' with Haye that he was about as much use as a skateboard in a Formula 1 race, so why would anyone put his name forth as a potential opponent for any aspiring HW?

[Syntax Error]

I'd be up for him Vs Haye.

That would be a good fight & it's a fight where we could gauge where each one of them is at right now.

It would be quite a shock for Haye too, as it would be an opponent that isn't clinically dead!

[Furey]

Tune up then I'd like to see him in with Chisora.

Not sure I see it happening though. If Chisora loses to Pulev, will Whyte want to pursue it... and if Chisora wins, assuming AJ wins tomorrow night that fight could be on the table which makes more ££££.

[rm1]

Whyte should not rush back his shoulder needs time just like Hayes. I actually think its quite likely he will ruin his career by rushing back.
