Whyte Trolls Wilder With Old Acting Video After Turning Down $5 Million

Dillian Whyte has gotten creative with his latest attack on WBC heavyweight world champion Deontay Wilder whom Whyte and his promoter Eddie Hearn claim turned down nearly $5 million to fight him.

Wilder is locked in negotiations at present for a massive unification bout with fellow champion Anthony Joshua but Dillian Whyte was also proposed as part of the deal at one stage.

However according to Whyte and Hearn he turned down an increased offer of $4 million for the fight plus US television money worth in the region of $1 million.

Wilder however has not responded in public to the claims as of yet and has been relatively quiet on social media this week, potentially a positive sign that a deal is edging closer between him and Joshua.

Whyte is not letting him have a moment’s rest with this video that seems to have caused a bit of a stir online:

Whyte last fought recently in a career best performance knockout win of former champion Lucas Browne.

Wilder also churned in one of his best performances of his pro career last time out when he recovered from been badly hurt to come back and stop Cuban Luis Ortiz inside the distance.
