“He is just a cowardly con man” – Dillian Whyte SLAMS ‘fraud’ Deontay Wilder

Originally posted on BenchWarmers | By Dave Carlisle | Last updated 10/22/22

Dillian Whyte has branded former heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder a ‘FRAUD’ who has never beaten anyone of note.

Whyte, whose most recent fight ended in a knockout defeat to Tyson Fury, is still hoping to compete at the very top of the heavyweight division.

One man who he has continually attempted to get into the ring is Deontay Wilder, but the American has shown no interest in meeting Whyte toe-to-toe.

Whyte is growing increasingly frustrated with Wilder’s reluctance to fight him – and his recent comments on him have been less than complimentary.

Dillian Whyte on Deontay Wilder: “I heard that Wilder still doesn’t want to fight me. He is the biggest fraud in all of sport, never mind boxing. He hasn’t actually beaten anyone of note yet. He is just a cowardly con man!” [@MailSport]

Wilder’s credentials are FAR stronger than Whyte’s, which makes this criticism all the more laughable. He could only dream of achieving what he has.

Wilder not only won the world heavyweight title, but he successfully defended it ten times. There’s no discrediting his achievements in the sport.

Whyte wants to fight him, probably for the cash, knowing full well he’s likely to be stopped, again. From Wilder’s perspective – what’s in it for him?
