Whyte accused Joshua of cheating and withdrew from the fight

Dillian White has criticized the contract he received to fight former champion Anthony Joshua. The Briton believed that his countryman was trying to deceive him, and therefore he refused to fight.

According to White, Joshua’s promoter committed fraud, promising to send a simple contract for the fight, but did not keep his word.

“We got the contract, along with my lawyers, we sent it back to Hearn. There were a lot of things that were said publicly, but they weren’t implemented when we were talking.

Joshua’s team said it would be a standard contract, but he had a lot of things they didn’t mention. For example, Hearn said they would send a simple contract. But they sent a very complicated contract with many tricks to catch me.

I don’t like it. I want a simple contract, regular fight, the winner will go on and have a big fight in Saudi Arabia.

First, I’m not happy with the revenge clause. Second, there are other small details that will tie my hands. If I fight Joshua and beat him, I won’t be able to move on and get into the big fights. They want the date and venue of the match to be changed. I replied that we will fight on August 12. The main thing is the opportunity, but in the event of a rematch, if I beat him, I won’t get it. I will wait for Joshua and fight him again.

Of course, the icing on the cake was the fight with Deontay Wilder in December in Saudi Arabia. I’m going to fight Joshua and beat him and then I’m going to fight Wilder and beat him too. I’ve been trying to fight these two guys for the last six or seven years,” White mentioned on talkSPORT.

We remind you, earlier Eddie Hearn spoke about the problems in organizing the fight with Whyte.
