Whyte advises Anthony Joshua against rushing back to the ring, citing Wilder as a suitable opponent
Dillian Whyte believes Anthony Joshua is making a premature return to boxing and suggests that Deontay Wilder would be a sensible next opponent. Joshua's last bout was in December, and he has since been involved in a fatal car accident in Nigeria. Wilder recently expressed interest in fighting Joshua after his victory over Derek Chisora. Whyte, who was defeated by Joshua in 2015, thinks a matchup between Joshua and Wilder would be lucrative and predicts Joshua would emerge victorious. However, Whyte also believes Joshua should take more time to recover, considering his recent experiences. Joshua is expected to face Tyson Fury later this year, but a potential fight against Wilder could jeopardize those plans. Whyte, who is still reeling from his first-round knockout loss to Moses Itauma, is uncertain about his next steps but is adamant that he is not ready to retire.
