Dillian Whyte just couldn't help calling out Deontay Wilder after knocking out Lucas Browne last Saturday.

Retaining his WBC Silver title with an emphatic victory, Whyte has positioned himself perfectly for a bout with the 'Bronze Bomber.' To say Wilder doesn't fancy the fight would be putting things mildly, though.

Wilder posted angrily on Instagram shortly after the fight - claiming that Eddie Hearn was delaying a potential bout with Anthony Joshua by pushing Whyte towards the mandatory position.

There's no doubt that boxing fans want to see Joshua v Wilder as soon as humanly possible, yet a clash with Whyte would still be entertaining and would help build the mega-fight in question.

That's not to mention the fact Joshua still has to overcome Joseph Parker on Saturday and could face Alexander Povetkin as his WBA mandatory over the summer. 

Wilder on the Whyte and Joshua situations

It's a pretty complicated situation, no matter how you look at it.

Something that is certain, however, is that Wilder isn't helping to move on proceedings.

He has shown no enthusiasm to fight Whyte and outraged boxing fans this week by changing his mind about working for Sky Sports at Joshua v Parker. 

Wilder will fight Whyte - on two conditions

Nevertheless, the 32-year-old may have turned things around regarding the two British figherts by making two very interesting offers during an interview with ThaBoxingVoice.

Wilder claimed that he would fight Whyte but only in one of two scenarios, with the former concerning none other than Joshua.

He stated: “I WILL fight Whyte. If they put Joshua on that contract, I have no problem fighting Whyte. Better yet I’m gonna make them another deal: If Dillian Whyte will fight Luis Ortiz and beat him, I will fight Dillian Whyte.

“They can take it or leave it. You fight Luis Ortiz and beat him? I’ll fight you. You put Joshua on that contract? I’ll fight you.”

The second offer is strange to say the least but the first could very well tempt Hearn.

The Matchroom promotor has spoken about intentions to line-up Whyte and then Joshua in front of the WBC champion and this could be his opportunity.

On current form, however, it's hard to tell whether the 'Bronze Bomber' will execute a swift u-turn after the unification fight on Saturday. He is simply too unpredictable to judge.

The fact boxing fans will continue to call for Whyte v Joshua is certainly predictable, mind.
