Dillian Whyte believes Anthony Joshua is making a premature return to boxing and suggests that a bout against Deontay Wilder would be a sensible next step for the former heavyweight world champion. Joshua's last fight was in December, and he has since been involved in a fatal car accident in Nigeria that claimed the lives of two close friends.
Following his victory over Derek Chisora, Wilder expressed interest in facing Joshua, while Whyte downplayed the possibility of a rematch against his old rival. Whyte thinks Joshua should take more time to recover before stepping back into the ring, citing the emotional toll of his recent experiences. He also reflected on his own career, acknowledging that his performance in a first-round knockout defeat to Moses Itauma did not reflect his true abilities and dismissing suggestions of retirement.
