Whyte to be mandatory challenger on Fury-Wilder III winner, says Warren

Published

With the fight still days away, the next opponent for whoever the winner in the trilogy
between WBC Heavyweight Champ Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder is already taking
shape.
Promoter Frank Warren is insisting that Dillian Whyte is to make the mandatory WBC
title challenger if he gets to win over Otto Wallin on their bout.
This is becoming possible after the Anthony Joshua defeat that crushed the unification
dream in the heavyweight division.
Whyte is currently the WBC interim champ and has all the right to be lined up next as
Joshua will pursue an immediate rematch to the now-unified heavyweight king
Oleksandr Usyk.
“As long as Dillian beats Otto Wallin, then Whyte is mandatory for the winner of that
fight immediately,” Warren said on IFL TV
\’There is no reason not to do it. Dillian, who 100 per cent would have wanted AJ to win,
because he\’s not like that.
\’He now sits there as probably a cast-iron mandatory challenger to the winner of Wilder-
Fury.
\’So now, while you\’re waiting for the undisputed fight, which, if it does happen, will
probably happen next summer.
\’The winner of Wilder-Fury will probably fight the winner of Whyte-Wallin because they
will have to because the mandatory will be called.”

Two-weight world Mexican champ Luis Nery (35 wins – 1 loss – 0) mocked the undefeated “Japanese monster” Naoya Inoue (26 wins – 0 loss) as ordinary and overrated hyping their fight at Tokyo Dome in Japan May 6, 2024.

31-year old Inoue will defend his undisputed super bantamweight title against Nery.

29-year-old challenger Nery has the WBC and Ring magazine bantamweight titles plus the WBC super bantamweight title from 2020 to May 2021.

On the other hand, the undisputed Inoue who holds WBA and IBF titles plus WBC and WBO belts has never lost except a decision with Filipino ‘flash’ Nonito Donaire last 2011.

Francis Ngannou cries ‘deception’ vs Anthony Joshua camp

Former UFC fighter Francis Ngannou accused AJ camp of ‘trickery’ when he suffered devastating knockdowns in the first and second round last March 8, 2024 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The MMA fighter and former UFC heavyweight champion said that AJ camp sabotaged him by letting him go early in the arena.

“We both fought at 3am. What I think, something that’s happened is that they get me to the arena very early. Like my pickup time was 10.30pm to go to the arena. And then when we get to the arena, they tell us that we are scheduled around 1.45am. right?” Ngannou blurted.

He believed that he came exhausted, which resulted in his humiliating defeat.
