If you put Mike and Whyte on the pads and Whyte went through Mikes combinations and pace who do you think tires faster and sooner and starts getting sloppier with the shots and losing technique ?
Answer is Whyte .
In a real fight you can use what if Whyte lasts a few rounds but Mike will be the aggressor the better puncher the better ring IQ ,he may even be faster all this only leads to one argument for fight and it’s what if Mike tires out before he stops anyone . I never used that what if in any matches I pick in because when you rely on that you will lose most of the time picking fights relying on someone to slow down .
The only current guy I would use that for is Ortiz who is not better then Mike now so again these real life circumstances can be used here ,we know this because Ortiz fought for a title twice and in the first one didn’t even pass his own physical and nearly got what was considered then the top guy ( even though it’s still AJ ) Wilder out of there . So wheather anyone thinks a number is over abilities is proven false just by what I posted here . If Mike were to lose to anyone in top ten now it’s going to be Fury ,A.J ,Hrgovic these type of guys ,if Whyte managed a win which isn’t impossible it still doesn’t dismiss Mike could and he would flatten a Wilder who again is the easiest fight for Mike out of the top guys .
In short you can put Mike in a light of “ Old poor Mike don’t hurt him “ but if he comes to fight everyone on this forum is going to see why I know my boxing and POOR defenseless Mike is going to do some damage IF he wants a few more cracks at it but he has to want it at least before he reaches 55 .
Keep in mind when this video came out ,Fury stopped negotiating with a possible match up with him and wanted more money all of a sudden.for that CHARITY event .lmao
