Following a crushing defeat at the hands of Alexander Povetkin that took away Dillian Whyte’s WBC Interim title, ‘The Body Snatcher’ is seeking revenge in the rematch on March 6th. He desires to get inside the ring and pour an all-out action on Povetkin, vowing to smash the Russian’s face.
However, Whyte could do the same in the original fight for a brief period. He was dominating the entire matchup until getting caught by Povetkin’s sleek uppercut. The one-shot KO left Dillian Whyte concussed and Alexander Povetkin left the arena with the W.
However, the rematch could offer fans a completely different outcome. Dillian Whyte appears to be at the peak of his game. He connected with SkySports to shed light on his upcoming plans. That said, Whyte has chalked out the plans to vanquish Povetkin.

“I just want to get in there and smash his face in, to be honest. Just get in there, have a fight, let’s go toe to toe, and let’s have it.
“I’m just glad that there is nowhere for him to try and hide behind and try and run. He wasted time, letting me get ready for two fights, and then canceled them at the last minute. I’m glad,” said Whyte.
He further denounced Povetkin for talking trash and claimed that he would come into the fight off the back of a great fight camp. If it still doesn’t grab the Russian’s attention, then Povetkin might have a different plan on his mind.
Speaking on the rematch, Whyte continued, “He (Povetkin) pretends to be this nice, humble guy, but he is talking s**t. Of course, I’m going to be annoyed.
“I’m not going to be sat there and laughing. I had a great camp. I’m going to be p***ed off and annoyed.”
