Surely not?
I wondered why Michael Grant popped up on the Boxrec home page, is he linked with a Whyte bout?

What's wrong with you lot. Grant is really, really tall. It's perfect preparation for Whyte for when he fights Joshua or Fury

Some opponent that for white a guy who hasn't won in 6years.
If whyte cleans him out in 1, will eddie say it was a better job than lewis thus proving whyte is world class?

This can't be the same Grant that fought?

Surely not - fought Lewis in 2000 - that's a desperate opponent.

Technically the year 2000 was last century.

Good opponent for someone as average as Whyte. He should be able to put him away in about 9 or 10 rounds.

I hoped for Mansour actually, but appearantly Whyte doesn't dare to. Mansour wanted it badly.

This boy is calling Whyte a coward on the other page.
Who on here agrees with him?

Mansour said that and he got a case actually. Whyte sure can't call higher ranked guys pussies any more, he's ducking high ranked guys himself.

Michael Grant hasn't been a relevant Heavyweight in almost 20 years. The fact that he's still somehow a punching bag for guys is beyond absurd.
The only explanation there can be to why he keeps getting opportunities is apparently some people have no memory and see him and go "Mmm...tall black man, him look tough....fire bad"

Whyte wants experience fighting tall fighters to prepare for Wilder/Joshua. I can see why he would t want to fight the short stocky Mansour. Surely they can do better than grant though.

This is an absolute joke! Is Whyte on IFL saying he'll take on Grant? He usually slates opponents and now he is fighting an OAP!
Molina, Malik Scott, Ruiz Jnr, Witherspoon, Kauffman, Flores, Rossey, Tarver, Austin, Chambers, Kassi, Donovan Dennis, Kevin Johnson, Arreola, even James Toney!
