He can do what he wants, after that performance he will get more world title shots, there will be winnable shots out there too.
He has already earned so the money he will need.

Whyte should fight again about december, needs a big rest, But even off an embarrasment theres so many fun options...

So in order of what i want. :

-Wilder vs Whyte, Please baby jesus, this is to fun to not happen. has the niggle. would be fun as fornicate.

-AJs bounce back opponent. If AJ loses, this would be getting back on the horse, on PPV.

-Parker II.

-Ruiz vs ortiz winner.

-DDD for the WBA reg belt... cant see frank wanting to work with dillian again, but what if eddie or sky offered big coin?

-Otto, Reschedual that and find out if otto is any good.

-chisora III.

-Kow, arreola, breazeal, charles martin, takem, washington, ect... sensible rebuild fight still very fun.

With the belts all wrapped up now - assuming Fury doesn't actually do what he says and relinquish - then Whyte is just going to be fighting eliminators for an opportunity he would have to wait at least 3 years for.
He looked washed up against Fury so my guess is he won't be taking a serious fight again.

next move should be apologise to fury, the ref and the fans for trying to use the 'push' as an excuse.

He should be in the mix with the top guys, who aren't fond of fighting other top guys. Ortiz, Ruiz, Pulev, Hrgovich-Zhang winner. It's also good to bring the Wallin matchup back to consideration. Any top fighter Whyte hasn't fought yet is an excellent option.

I'd like to see him and Wilder, maybe Wilder will fancy it more after seeing him flattened with one punch again

A great option. Nothing to lose for both. Still has sense.

Dubois or joyce. He'd make another good wedge from either. Great fight in particular for DDD.

Next Chisora.

His value as someone to fill arenas and sell ppvs off his own name took a massive hit on Saturday night, along with his reputation as a genuine threat to the top 3.

But he can still make money and be in fun fights if he wants.

Whyte-Chisora III is a one of the most worthless matchups today. Chisora is the last man Whyte should meet. They fought 2 times with Chisora losing by KO second time around and now he's older and shabbier. There's no intrigue at all.

Well thought out list. I'd agree with it all and in the same order except Chis 3. But anyone thinking that he should retire or is somehow not worthy of a top 10 opponent anymore is clueless. His stock may have gone down but he's still got a top 5 record.

What's the point in continuing? He's 35 and can't stop or take an uppercut. Everyone's going to be throwing that shot at him. Has a worse fighter ever engaged in a string of PPVs? Just quit while your heads still attached to your shoulders!

He's 34 and over the past four years has beat a former no.4 in the division, the current no.6, no.15. and a former top 15. In that that time he has lost to the no.1 and former no.4. It's ridiculous to suggest that he needs to retire if he doesn't want to. Everyone else over 30 with any losses may aswell retire also if you think that's the requirement.

Wow, a former top 15!

He's never going to be champ and is suffering brain squashing KOs. But each to his own I guess.

His next move should be learning to defend against an uppercut. He’s wide open for them.

Pretty much would be guaranteed more world title fights, half a chance of winning one and def would be paid millions.
On your logic they all should retire as they are below Fury's level
