Short notice and first time back. I'll give Whyte a pass on this fight. He SHOULD give Wach a proper shellacking.
First time back ? He fought in July, that’s a standard heavyweight gap between fights !
Short notice ? Who knows how long it’s been in the pipeline , rumours were circulating for a good few weeks that Dillian would return on this show
As I posted to an earlier poster, he's had plenty of top matchups in the last several years. He needs to get back in the ring and on short notice ,Wach is reasonable. First time back since drug scandal.
Wach has shown a cast iron chin but Whyte should be able to stop him on mercy stoppage I figure. I don't think he was ever a tough fight for the top guys but his freak chin allowed him to go rounds with pretty much anyone, I don't think he's ever been dropped but he was taking flush shots from Wlad and roided up Pov all night

Was thinking the same.. ref or corner stoppage. He got stopped in the Big Baby fight due to hand injury.

You are right he has fought some good guys but I just don’t see the point of this fight ( other than ££, which I suppose is fair enough from Dillians point of view)
Some time around the middle of 2020, Whyte is gonna get a 4 yr ban from UKAD, and a tsunami of controversy is going to hit Hearn and Sky sports for allowing this fight to happen, when they knew he was still under investigation from UKAD for a potential doping violation.

His much-vaunted chin's gone, IMO.
Back in the day it was something else, I grant you but gainst Bakole he was a shot or two away from going down. Nothing more than a punching-bag these days (when, of course, he used to be a tough punching bag).
Funny everybody saying when was Whyte last breather fight, hmmm, what about his last fight against a Colombian nobody or 2 fights against Chisora the ancient gate keeper. It seems most of this forum has been as brainwashed as bad as the casuals when it's the heavyweights. Next it will be Whyte vs Dave Allen an people saying its a good match up

Lol a nobody? Rivas was an unbeaten Olympian coming off one of the better wins in the division, people like you are just as bad as the casuals who eat up hype. You just go too far the other way...

Rivas and Chisora are solid opposition.
Yup. Silly commentary really. I'm no fan of Whyte's but he's faced top competition.

Well, if their BoxRec presence is any indication, they follow just so they can go on and on about how brainwashed everyone is by Ed Hearn
Everyone isn't brainwashed by Eddeh!!?
Pro wrestling is fake?
