Trainer Presents a Major ‘Problem’ to Tyson Fury’s Next Opponent

The WBC champion, Tyson Fury, can be a problem to any of the current heavyweight contenders. Having poleaxed Deontay Wilder twice in a row, it’s now hard to picture ‘The Gypsy King’ struggle against an A-listed puncher. His upcoming opponent, Dillian Whyte, possesses some prominent features that can be problematic for Fury. But it is scarcely believable unless done in reality.

Well, Dillian Whyte is 6’4″ tall while Tyson Fury stands at 6’11”. This height difference can further influence the fighting style of both men. Whyte is a strong puncher and has vicious hooks in his arsenal. He attacks his opponent on the head and body with sharp hooks. But Team Fury seems unfazed as Sugar Hill Steward detailed why ‘The Gypsy King’ will be a massive trouble for ‘The Body Snatcher’.

Tyson Fury’s trainer, Sugar Hill, connected exclusively with FightHype.com and said, “Well, a hook is shorter than a straight punch. The hook is much shorter than the 1-2 and I believe Tyson Fury has one of the longest reaches in boxing.”

“So, it seems like it should be a problem for any opponent. But as we are speaking on up and coming opponent, who is a mandatory for him, yes, it should be a problem. It should pose a problem for him.”

Dillian Whyte is undoubtedly an A-lister in the existing trend. But he has appeared vulnerable in the ring, losing twice as a pro and both the times via stoppage. It leaves enough blueprint for Tyson Fury to craft his plans on beating ‘The Body Snatcher’. But heavyweight boxing is popular for putting on shocking results, which leaves a lifeline for Dillian Whyte to win.

Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte- The heavyweight slugfest we all needed

At this point, Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte makes absolute sense. Whyte has held the WBC interim strap for quite some time now and is currently fresh from a KO win against Alexander Povetkin. Similarly, Tyson Fury has defended his WBC belt against Deontay Wilder in 2021.

While Oleksandr Usyk will seemingly rematch Anthony Joshua for the WBA, WBO, and IBF straps. The Whyte vs Fury will keep the title track in motion. Dillian Whyte had been calling for a world championship fought for years. And on bagging that, it can drive him to push off-limits when put inside the ring with Tyson Fury.
