“There’s a lot of people on social media talking rubbish. You got grown men like Frank Warren, Bob Arum, and those guys — like laughing and gloating at the fact that I lost. Then you got Andy Ruiz, who turned down fights with me. Now I lost, he’s happy that I’ve lost and they don’t have to fight me. These guys are a bunch of cowards. Boxing’s full of cowards,” Dillian Whyte said.
