Dillian Whyte is not in the habit of shirking a challenge, and the hard-hitting heavyweight contender will continue that trend when he faces unbeaten American Jermaine Franklin at the Wembley Arena in London on November 26.
In April, Whyte (28-3, 14 KOs) succumbed to a sixth-round stoppage defeat to WBC heavyweight king Tyson Fury. Eager to return to action, Whyte now seeks a statement win over Franklin before targeting a rematch against fellow Brit Anthony Joshua, who handed him his first loss in 2015.
Before Whyte gets his shot at redemption with Joshua, he’ll have to get by the 21-0 Franklin. Despite a resume devoid of any real top-shelf talent outside of Jerry Forest, Whyte understands that an undefeated opponent still presents a unique challenge.
“He’s the best opponent at the minute… It’s very hard to defeat someone that is undefeated. He doesn’t know how to lose. For me, it’s going to be an exciting fight.”
