Whyte: Wilder May Face Audley Harrison Again Instead of Me
Dillian Whyte believes WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder will do whatever he can to avoid a potential fight between the two of them.
Whyte has been pushing to get Wilder in the ring, since winning a WBC eliminator over Dereck Chisora in December 2015. Whyte's promoter, Eddie Hearn of Matchroom, made several big offers to Wilder - who showed little interest in heading over to the UK for the contest.
"Wilder might decide to fight Audley Harrison again after this one, instead of me," Whyte said to Sky Sports.
Whyte feels that a win over Helenius should earn him a shot at Wilder's title. Helenius is best known for a controversial victory over Chisora from several years ago. And Whyte is ready to bang away with Helenius if needed.
"I'm ready to rock," Whyte said. "It's a good fight. No-one can deny me a world title fight if I win this fight. No-one can say I'm not ready or I haven't fought anyone.
"No-one can ever say that. I'm ranked highly across the board and I'm fighting a legitimate contender. I've seen him, he's a good fighter, very well-rounded with a good jab and good boxing ability. You can see he's got a very good amateur career. I don't walk out there to have wars, but if it comes down to it, I'll have it. I hope he does stand and trade, because if he does I might trade with him, or use my boxing skills."

Wilder ain't a big name, Wilder would never dare to face either of them.gilgamesh wrote:"Loser to the Stars" Chisora don't beat big name fighters.

He's a bigger name than either Whyte or Chisora. I'd say Chisora is right up his alley. I don't think he'd avoid Whyte either.asdfjkl wrote: Wilder ain't a big name, Wilder would never dare to face either of them.

He ducked Whyte for 5m+, then accepted the Ortiz fight for 2,5mil knowing beforehand that that fight would never happen, then fights Stiverne which he could have done in may if both of them didn't use drugs, sadly they most likely do, so had to wait till last month when the ban of the American doping lab was finished.gilgamesh wrote:He's a bigger name than either Whyte or Chisora.

So yes, he avoided Whyte, who's a much much bigger name in boxing.
Re: Whyte: Wilder May Face Audley Harrison Again Instead of Me
You saying Whyte is a much much bigger name in Boxing tells me that I might as well argue with a brick wall as it'd be equally as productive, and possibly even a little less thick actually.asdfjkl wrote:He ducked Whyte for 5m+, then accepted the Ortiz fight for 2,5mil knowing beforehand that that fight would never happen, then fights Stiverne which he could have done in may if both of them didn't use drugs, sadly they most likely do, so had to wait till last month when the ban of the American doping lab was finished.gilgamesh wrote:

This is the British section of the forum, and I'm sure none of our British Boxing brethren would tell you that Whyte is a bigger name in the sport than Wilder
Good day sir.

I didn't think he did. I had Chisora 3 rounds up comfortably.jamamb wrote:whyte barely gets by chisora and ppl try to make him into some hw boogeyman. wilder would splat him.
Re: Whyte: Wilder May Face Audley Harrison Again Instead of Me
I get that people hate Wilder & we Brits like to stand by our own but Wilder would destroy Whyte.
The only win Whyte has had since losing to AJ that's worth shouting about is struggling to get by a shot Chisora & many people think he lost, Wilder would put him to sleep with ease.

Whyte made more money in the fight he lost compared to any fight Wilder ever won. Whyte offered Wilder more money as Wilder ever offered to anyone ever.gilgamesh wrote:You saying Whyte is a much much bigger name in Boxing tells me that I might as well argue with a brick wall as it'd be equally as productive, and possibly even a little less thick actually.asdfjkl wrote:He ducked Whyte for 5m+, then accepted the Ortiz fight for 2,5mil knowing beforehand that that fight would never happen, then fights Stiverne which he could have done in may if both of them didn't use drugs, sadly they most likely do, so had to wait till last month when the ban of the American doping lab was finished.gilgamesh wrote:
