Whyte wasn't ranked higher than Fury because Whyte was removed from the rankings for testing positive for anabolic steroids do you understand that? Are you really ****** enough to think Whyte is being avoided so wilder can fight Fury?

Originally posted by GGG Gloveking View PostI feel like you're lying to me on two things. Firstly, I found an article from November 2017, which has the WBC rankings. Stiverne was 1, Ortiz was 2, Pulev was 3, and Whyte was 4.
Secondly, you say that the Parker fight was already signed when the article I provided (October 2017) was published. I found this on Wiki. (I know, you're going to try to discredit the source without actually refuting it)
According to a Tweet from Parker on 15 November 2017, he was offered less than half of what was paid to Charles Martin when he defended his IBF title against Joshua.[5] The next day, Higgins told Fairfax Media that he and Hearn were still negotiating a deal that would benefit all parties.[6] Parker stated he was willing to drop to 35% of the net profit. Higgins made a final offer to Hearn on 22 November 2017. He told Sky Sports, "It's our final bottom line decision. We feel anything less is disrespectful or a disgrace."[7] On 29 November 2017, Hearn stated the fight could be confirmed within two weeks
So, at this point, your story sounds like, "Eddie wanted a tournament (even though one of the fights had not been signed) involving #1 (actually #4) ranked Dillian Whyte. And Eddie was making promises concerning a fighter who was not signed to him at the time."
You claimed Hearn was using Whyte as a roadblock to a Joshua fight. We have provide you with quotes that proved otherwise, that Hearn was more into getting Whyte his shot/chance and matching up the winner v Joshua/Parker winner.
Fact is Joshua/Parker was made, it is irrevant how long that fight took to get made, the idea was Joshua/Parker in early 2018, Wilder/Whyte in early 2018 with the winner of both fight facing off at the end of 2018 in an undisputed fight.
By your logic Hearn never wanted Wilder to fight Joshua, wrong...He wanted the Whyte/Wilder winner to face off the Joshua/Parker winner.

If my son eats all his dinner, should he expect dessert?
If my son does not eat all his dinner, should he expect dessert?

Please tell me you don't need me to define the word "if" for you...

I can't believe you're struggling with this.

You can either try to do verbal gymnastics, like your colleagues attempting to redefine the word "if", you can claim that Hearn is a clarvoyant and could see the future, or you can read these simple words and take them at face value...
Hearn told Fight Hub in a video posted on Tuesday that he wants Wilder, who holds one of the heavyweight belts, to fight Dillian Whyte. Then, that winner would move on to fight Joshua, who holds two of the division’s titles (Joseph Parker holds the fourth belt).
Then, if Wilder (38-0, 37 KOs) were to beat Whyte (21-1, 16 KOs), who was knocked out by Joshua in December 2015, he could face Joshua, most likely in Britain
