1 Tyson Fury (April 2022)
Though long-awaited, it’s hard to deny that when Whyte had the chance to fight Fury for the world heavyweight title, he didn’t perform as he wanted. Stopping at six, he’s barely beaten Fury up until that point.
2 Alexander Povetkin II (March 2021)
Wanting to avenge the 2020 defeat to Povetkin, Whyte, the following year, finished the Russian faster than finished him, finishing the job within four innings.
3 Derek Chisora II (December 2018)
Yet another successful rematch, in this one, Whyte eliminated any lingering doubts after his 2017 game against Chisora by knocking out his fellow Londoner in the 11th round. with the best left hook he’s ever thrown as a pro.
4 Alexander Povetkin I (August 2020)
Seemingly on his way to the world title, Whyte’s path changed dramatically when Povetkin, who was knocked out twice in the fourth round, delivered a spectacular left headbutt in the fifth round to knocking Dillian out.
5 Joseph Parker (July 2018)
An interesting back-and-forth fight with many ups and downs, Whyte was able to overtake Parker and beat him on points, despite having to drag himself off the floor in the final round to do so. Before that, he had dropped Parker twice; once in the second round and once in the ninth round.
6 Anthony Joshua (December 2015)
Whyte’s first professional loss came in December 2015 when he failed to capitalize on his success to hurt Joshua in the second round and was then knocked down in the seventh round after a Joshua attack.
8 Oscar Rivas (July 2019)
A fight marred by post-match controversy, Whyte’s decisive win over Rivas, an undefeated Colombian, however, was a good thing at the time, especially when he had to rise to the top. from the ninth round knockdown to claim it.
7 Derek Chisora I (December 2016)
Whyte’s first fight with Chisora was the start of a showdown between the two and so close and controversial it set up a rematch – which came two years later – pretty much perfectly. The outcome of the war may have varied opinions but the war itself was amusing to everyone.
9 Lucas Browne (March 2018)
Unbeaten for 25 games at the time, Australia’s Browne arrived in the UK in 2018 with plenty of confidence but was soon replaced by Whyte’s left hook, which ended Browne’s challenge in the sixth round.
10 Robert Helenius (October 2017)
A far cry from the classic Whyte, this struggle with Helenius is one that highlights both his flaws as a boxer as well as his ability to win even when he’s probably not in best status.
