Mofo2 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 It has been a mixed bag of a year for the London knockout artist. Ending it on perhaps a bit of a flat note with a less than entertaining scrap with Sweden’s Robert Helenius as part of the Joshua vs Takam bill. But Whyte knows you’re only as good as your last fight of course and at the same time knows, one big knockout in the heavyweight division is enough to catapult you into the mix of big fights. It has always been the way. Boxing’s traditional glamour division can create stars and ruin careers in equally quick time. Whyte knows that 2018 could finally be his time to get a shot at a version of the heavyweight title. Before he does though, he’s confirmed his next opponent – Australian Lucas Browne. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selij Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 The Whyte/Helenius fight was shockingly poor, from both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed; but at least with Browne you have a fighter that will go for it, this could be over very early on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selij Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 THAT Whyte disappeared in Manchester in 2016 after the Chisora slugfest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know if I fully agree with that but even so he Whyte has a lot of stamina even if the work rate slows a little in the later rounds; could be a toss of the coin!
