“It’s Derek being Derek. He’s good at talking his way into an ass-whooping. The first time he said it was close. The second time I cleaned his clock. The knockout I gave him was one of the worst you will see in boxing. I ain’t got no beef with Derek. I’m cool with the guy but clearly, he has a vendetta. Derek is a stepping stone and I’ve stepped over him twice already. If he wants to be brutally knocked out again I’ll make some easy money! If he beats Oleksandr Usyk and there’s a belt on the line, I’d gladly take the belt off of him.” Said Whyte to SkySports

Dillian Whyte and Alexander Povetkin will clash for the WBC interim title.
