Dillian Whyte notes that he is considered the “old wolf“Ready to be replaced by a younger, Moses Itauma, in their 12-round heavyweight collision on August 16 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Whyte (31-3, 21 CO’s) was specifically chosen that Itauma (12-0, 10 COs) should be made to look good in their fight on Dazn PPV, priced at $ 49.99. ‘The Body Snatcher’ Whyte intends to show Itauma that he and his management have chosen the wrong man because he will upset him.
Dillian rests “written off” status
“I still feel that there is much more left to achieve and much more about giving. It’s clear I was written off. Everyone put me as the underdog, ”Dillian Whyte said Dazn boxand discussed his battle with Moses Itauma on August 16.
As you can see, Whyte does not like him to be “written off”, and he is considered the token victim that Itauma brought to Riyadh on August 16. Dillian is new to being used as someone to make another fighter look like gold when they can in fact be a pure falsehood.
“I have nothing to prove to anyone. I am a risk maker. I’ve always been a risk maker. If I didn’t take risks, I wouldn’t live today from where I came and what I did, ‘says Whyte.
Well, Dillian actually has something to prove. After the way he performed in his recent battles against Ebenezer Tetteeh, Christian Hammer, Jermaine Franklin and Tyson Fury, he is seen as 100% washed. Whatever fighter he was in his best years from 2016 to 2019, he is no longer that man. The power remains, but he did not do well in many years.
“Old Wolf” Whyte’s sharp teeth
“They try to feed the old wolf to the young wolf, But I’ll just say that. I was the alpha male in the suit, ‘says Whyte.’ I’ve been in the pack for a long time. I understand the mentality of the suit, but maybe my teeth are still sharp as the old wolf. Listen, I’m there to win, and I carry strength in both hands. I’m sure he’s doing the same. Let’s see. I’m going to do everything needed to win. “
Dillian will have to use his power early, because Itauma will end him quickly if he doesn’t hit him with something to put the fear in him. We saw Moses afraid during his amateur days when he fought a fighter from Greece who had gone to him behind him at the intention of the opening bell. Whyte will have to do the same.
“That’s it. There is no tomorrow for Dillian. If you lose a fight like this, you just get a step for other young guys, “coach James ‘Buddy’ McGirt says to Dazn, talking about what’s at stake for his fighter, Whyte. “It’s his championship fight here.”
Whyte can retire just as well if he loses against Itauma through a humiliating knockout, because his value will fall. Those nice little pay days he gets regularly will probably disappear, and he will find himself where he was earlier when he first started. For a fighter with a net value estimated at $ 13.2 millionIt would be difficult for Whyte to be reduced to changing its battles.
