Dillian Whyte vs. Otto Wallin (October 30)

[Finkel]

Even for the same money, wanting the Whyte fight for a chace to take his mandatory status is a no brainer. Besides, Whyte is a semi-shot gatekeeper that ran from an eliminator ordered by the WBC...2 actually.

idiotic post

Old shot Povetkin KOd him ffs. Whytes biggest claim to fame is beating AJ in the amateurs. Decent resume, but among a weak and aged heavyweight opposition.

Dillian Whyte won his title eliminator in 2016. WBC have been black balling him ever since.

Remember Whyte (WBC#4) had already won his title eliminator 8 months earlier. The WBC will now start nudging up Breazeale’s ranking month by month.

[margaret thatcher]

who had fury, wilder, ruiz, parker, aj, martin, stiverne beaten when they got their shots? what about their challengers like gerald washignton, eric molina, raz cojanu, hughie fury, szpilka, etc? any of them put together wins over parker, povetkin, helenius, rivas, chisora 2x?

whytes obviously earned a shot, compare him to the other challengers there have been and hes done far more than most of them, and more than the champs did prior to their initial title challenges. not really the guy ppl should have problems with getting a shot

[Lackeos]

He just realized he is taking too risky of a fight. So much for being so courageous.

Damn, there's really a lot of dumb opinions to be found on boxrec.

Shall I continue?

please do! i'm still not thoroughly happy with that convoluted timeline, maybe you could go a bit more in depth, i feel you skipped if only a few but quite important details!

still quite good job! but incomplete!

eo! your reputation is on the line here!

enlighten us with your meticulously researched COMPLETE timeline of dillian whyte's wbc mandatory history! plus all the sideplots! up until now! do not leave out one thing!

[candyslim]

Candyslim always showing up to defend his boy Whyte. Strange that anyone would defend that pathetic loser who deserves the Fury payday soso much right?

Wbc this and wbc that, if Fury doesn't want the fight then it will never happen and I for one hope that it doesn't.

I make no apology for that. It's no accident that I'm a fan of Dillian Whyte. He has made me a fan by his exciting performances agaist fighters that many others would prefer not to fight. He's a risk taker, he'll fight anyone. Isn't that what we fans of Boxing say we want?

I dislike injustice and he's been denied his chance for years while others who have fought nobody get given title shots ahead of him. He has fought a succession of rated fighters, beating every one of them, and losing only to Joshua and Povetkin. I make no claims that he is the best in the world, I don't think that all, but he has earned the chance to compete for the title. If cementing that opportunity means cancelling his final "fight another rated opponent while I'm waiting" fight, then why would anyone (but team Wallin) begrudge him that?

I know why you would, you're a hater (the clue's in the name FFS), Bandog is a myopic obsessive who can't see that he holds fighters like Dillian Whyte to a standard of behaviour he would never dream of expecting from his boy Luis Ortiz. Most other fans may not feel as strongly as I do but if they are genuine fans of the sport they respect Dillian Whyte as a warrior and agree he needs to grab his chance while it's there ... even at the expense of disappointing Peter Barlow.

[candyslim]

guess why wallin did not take the babic fight?

may it have something to do with a 'slightly' reduced monetary offer compared to what he would've made versus whyte?

Even for the same money, wanting the Whyte fight for a chace to take his mandatory status is a no brainer. Besides, Whyte is a semi-shot gatekeeper that ran from an eliminator ordered by the WBC...2 actually.

idiotic post

You seem surprised Finkel. Has Bandog been flying under your radar?

Great work on the time-line btw but I'm sure you realize the Whyte haters won't read it as it doesn't suit their agenda and even if they do you'll get the standard "Boo hoo, cry me a river, are you so dumb you expect life to be fair?" kind of moronic response.

Well it's actually from a timeline about general WBC corruption, I'm not keeping a record of Whyte's career per se.

To be fair, I can understand why most people wouldn't.
That's the trouble with the WBC, they are so corrupt that it gets draining. They muddy the water so much it's almost impossible to hold them to account
The reality is tho, I'm just pissing in the wind
