Dillian Whyte doesn’t want to see Anthony Joshua in the ring
Whyte will be fighting Fury for the WBC heavyweight title. He should fight Usyk, and he should focus on that.
"In the lead-up to the last Usyk fight, he was too concerned about rematching me and telling others he wanted me to beat him up.
"I wanted shout out "bro, leave me alone" and concentrate on Usyk. Then, look at what happened. He got into the fight and looked confused.
He needs to be focused on what he does, forget about Usyk and worry about Usyk. Because if Usyk doesn't beat him, where will he go?

"Now is the best moment to face Usyk. Who knows what the poor man's thoughts are? You can't beat Usyk right now, with all he has gone through.
"I don’t want Anthony Joshua retiring because I want him to fight again."
Joshua beat Whyte in 2009 in their amateur fights, before losing to him in the pro fight in 2015.
Joshua, 32, has supported Whyte's win, but only because he hates his fellow Londoner, and wants to "smash" him.
BETTING SPECIAL - GET FURY AT 30/1 OR WHYTE AT 100/1Joshua is much more friendly to Whyte than Joshua, who will be challenging Usyk to his WBA, IBF, and WBO belts in Saudi Arabia. This is in the hopes of settling scores.
If Whyte is able to upset Fury in front 94,000 fans, he will be able pick any opponent he likes and start a bidding war for England and America.
He said, "AJ won't think of me first if I wake up Sunday as the heavyweight champion in the world."
"I will be running around in the entire hotel and streets naked, with nothing but my belt... doing the helicopter!"
