“I Just Want F***ing War”- Dillian Whyte Urges Eddie Hearn to Set Up a Fight Against Tyson Fury or Anthony Joshua

WBC Interim heavyweight champion and mandatory challenger Dillian Whyte seems unfazed with all the bold claims made by WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury regarding a potential fight between them. Although Fury will remain a favorite in the matchup, Whyte’s knockout power will always be a threat. However, the fight between champion and mandatory is still not official.

A frustrated Tyson Fury had already sent a stern warning to the heavyweight elites, including Dillian Whyte. In response, Dillian Whyte wrote, “I just want f***ing war. That’s all I want is to go to war with the best ‘The Gypsy King’, ‘Anthony Joshua’”

“Eddie Hearn f*** all this he said she said BS”

28-2 as a professional, Whyte has lost only to Anthony Joshua and Alexander Povetkin so far. He is currently a top-tier name in the heavyweight title ride and has the WBC Interim strap. Hence, he is ahead of ‘AJ’ in the title fight talks in the WBC picture.

However, AJ, who is in talks to rematch Oleksandr Usyk for his lost heavyweight belts, is still closer to a title shot than Dillian Whyte.

Dillian Whyte can soon get a crack at the best

Having fought Joshua in the past, the pair can rematch somewhere down the line. But the current scenario doesn’t validate an immediate matchup between them. That said, Tyson Fury’s promoter Bob Arum had already given a green signal to Whyte vs Fury.

It seems Whyte was unhappy with the reported 80/20 purse that he was offered. However, Arum was open to negotiations.

Per The Top Rank honcho, Dillian Whyte vs Tyson Fury and Usyk vs Joshua 2 are the two fights that can revive the title race. In an exclusive chat with Sky Sports, the promoter detailed his vision on those plans.

Bob Arum said, “Whyte should sit down with myself and [Fury’s UK promoter] Frank Warren and work out a deal for a guarantee, and we’ll get this show on the road.”

“Come to the table and let’s see if we can carve out a real deal”

“Let’s quit screwing around.”
