DO THE WHYTE THING

-

FRIDAY June 23, 2017

DON CHARLES, trainer of heavyweigh­t Dereck Chisora, calls on Dillian Whyte to meet “Del Boy” in a rematch of their epic encounter last year.

Whyte won a close decision in what was the Boxing News British Fight of the Year, though many felt Chisora deserved at least a draw.

“A draw would have been probably the perfect result because even Dillian Whyte didn’t deserve to be called a loser that night,” Don tells us. “So a draw would have been the right result. But they didn’t believe so.”

His message for Whyte: “Do the honourable thing!

“Come on Dillian Whyte, if you’re reading this, come on, get back in the ring. Don’t deny the British public what they deserve, they’re the paying public. Let’s give it to them again, it was beautiful.

“I know for sure Dereck and his management team have offered Dillian Whyte a substantia­l amount of money for a rematch and he’s turned it down point blank.”
