Dillian Whyte's proposed heavyweight battle with Lucas Browne would guarantee raw emotion and entertainment, says Sky Sports expert Johnny Nelson.
I would give Dillian Whyte the tag of 'The Terminator.' He is just getting rid of the fighters that need to be out of his way. He's answering the questions.
Lucas Browne got my attention when he beat my friend Richard Towers. He looked a strong powerhouse on that night.
Dillian is still trying to establish who he is and where he stands among his heavyweight rivals, and Browne is a good step towards doing that. I do like this fight, it's going to be intriguing.
Dillian needs that bit of needle with Browne. He doesn't want his opponents to stay cool, calm and calculated. He fights on emotion. That's when he produces his best, that's when he's at his strongest, and most dangerous.
Browne has bought into the fight, he's bit, and he's now emotionally involved. That will play perfectly into Dillian's hands.
At this moment in time, nobody has been able to beat him, apart from Anthony Joshua, and that's because he had the punch-power to do it, but it was another emotion-fuelled fight.
Browne has bought into the fight, he's bit, and he's now emotionally involved. That will play perfectly into Dillian's hands.
It's got to be an entertaining fight, because they will not box and move, they are going to be two bulls in a china shop. I know Dillian wants this fight. Career-wise for Lucas it will be the best path for him, because what other path is there?
If Dillian gets through this fight, he will have a world title shot this year, without a doubt. If he doesn't, I would be very, very surprised.
