Long standing heavyweight contender Dillian Whyte is still no closer to a world title shot at the moment than he was this time last year.
Understandably, he’s frustrated and after turning down a rematch with champion Anthony Joshua recently he is still waiting on his next opponent to be confirmed at the moment.
That being said, he’s keeping a light sense of humor about things and is happy with (as a self-managed fighter) how his career has gone up to this point.
Whyte had been in line to face WBC champion Deontay Wilder for a while but Wilder instead will next take on his long standing mandatory Dominic Breazeale next week.
Speaking to Kugan Cassius of IFL TV Whyte blasted Wilder as:
“A desperate crackhead.”
Turning his attention to another opponent he is linked with at the moment, German Manuel Charr — Whyte said:
“Manuel Charr is a piece of s***. That’s all.”
Expect news of Whyte’s next opponent soon.
He is anticipated to fight on July 13th at the O2 Arena in London against a foe expected to be named in the next two weeks.
