Dillian Whyte's promoter Eddie Hearn doesn't believe Deontay Wilder will go on with the planned trilogy on December. Lately, we haven't heard anything about the bout from Wilder and that has become a concern for Hearn.

Whyte is the WBC's mandatory challenger for the title and it has to happen by February 2021. Although, Hearn is willing to extend the date to early March to give enough time to the winner of Fury-Wilder 3 to get right.

Shouldn't Whyte be worrying about his own fight? Hearn should be getting Dillian Whyte ready for his moment of truth come August 22 when faces former WBA world champion Alexander Povetkin.

Eddie Hearn also stated that he is willing to stake his own money on a Fury-Whyte bout i.e if Wilder decides not to go on with the Fury-Wilder trilogy.

Common, Wilder is not going to punk out! He has fans that he can't afford to let down.

If he chickens out, he better start preparing for exhibition fights. But we all know he has to fight the trilogy to regain his fans' trust.

Deontay Wilder is not going to let the trilogy pass him by like that. Not even in Eddie Hearn's wildest dreams!

I don't thing Whytes is the kind of fighter to skip training, especially this close to his clash with Alexander Povetkin.

I don't see the Whyte-Povetkin happening anytime soon with the way things are looking! I hope I'm wrong.

Don't put a hex on this one too, maaan! It has been a while since I watched a fight that is worth my while.

I'm not a witch, lol. I really want to watch a good fight too, but let's be real. With the way things are looking, I don't see anything special happening anytime soon.

Hearn knows the money to be made is not something to joke around with. That is why he is trying to get a Fury-Whyte bout.

Fury-Whyte would definitely bring in a ton of dough, that is for sure. But everyone needs to fight their own battle.

I hope the fact that Wilder is not talking about the trilogy that much, doesn't mean he is considering not fighting. That would be whack!

If I was Deontay Wilder, I would do the same thing. Keep the people guessing what's happening, while I'm busy training.

That is a smart move. While other boxers are busy running their mouths on tv and radio interviews, the smart ones are training nonstop.

Well, Deontay Wilder can't afford to lose the trilogy. if he does lose the bout, it would even be worse if he had spent his time in media houses instead of the gym.
