Famous promoter Bob Arum warned WBC heavyweight Tyson Fury not to ignore Dillion White. Arum believes that White will bring Fury a greater test than the Bronze Bomber Deonte Wilder.
After months of negotiations, the battle between Furi and White is finally finalized, when both will return to the UK, as their last match was played elsewhere, and the match is expected to take place in Wales, England, in April.
As a co-promoter for Fury, Arum believes his boxers will win, but he reminds Fury not to underestimate White's abilities.
Arum said: "White has a great chance because he is a big boxer, he is a very strong heavyweight fighter, very experienced, if anything, White poses a greater threat to Furi than Wilder. ”
White has been fighting to challenge the World Boxing Champion since beating Robert Herenius in 2017 to win the WBC Transition Title, and now that his dream has finally come true and the game will bring him the highest honorarium to date, that will be White's motivation, so he will do his best.
Many people are not very optimistic about White winning, but in addition to Arum, former WBC heavyweight Champion Tony Belleu also feels that White cannot be underestimated, he thinks that Fury will encounter an ominous test, and points out why.
Belleu said: "Fury is the best person in heavyweight boxing today, but judging by the last confrontation with Wild, you can't say that he must be number one. Believe me, White is a huge test for any boxer in the world, he's strong, brave, can cause all the problems in his class, I'm not saying white is the best heavyweight boxer, but there's no heavyweight boxer in the world who can get through it easily against White, it's going to be tough, as I said, White is strong and brave, he's going to get close to your chest and he's going to get involved, he's not afraid to shoot, you have to figure out how to get rid of this guy. ”
Personally, I am not very optimistic about White, but one thing I agree with is that White is not an idle person. In order to repel White, in addition to adjusting his physical and mental state, Fury is very critical to the formulation of tactics, and after working with American coach Javan Hill Stewward, Fury is very aggressive in his playing style, which may be effective for Wilder, but it does not mean that it is effective for others.
There is a saying in boxing confrontation, the more you attack, the more you get punched, not that White's counterattack is sharp, but if Furi adopts the strategy of chasing and hitting, the opponent's chances will increase. White's hook punch is not vegetarian, the inside combat ability is also very strong, Fury must be careful, but believe that as long as he is in normal condition, winning the victory is still ten to nine.
