The Moment Dillian Whyte Called Out Ringside Anthony Joshua Before Storming Off
08:06, 23 Dec 2018

Dillian Whyte wasted no time in calling out Anthony Joshua after he produced a stunning knockout blow to defeat Dereck Chisora at the O2 Arena in London on Saturday night. 

Whyte was still dripping with sweat in the ring during the post-fight interviews when he pointed to Joshua and made it clear that he wants to take on the IBF, WBO and WBA champion.

Rematch, let's go! Let's do this!" yelled Whyte

Joshua was ringside for the fight as he was commentating for Sky Sports at the time and he made it clear that a rematch with Whyte, who Joshua defeated in 2015, is a possibility, although the challenger will have to wait in line.

Joshua joined the post-match action from the edge of the ring and  stated that his main priority is a fight with Deontay Wilder, but the American is eyeing a potential rematch of his own against Tyson Fury following their epic encounter earlier this month.

Responding to Whyte's calls for a rematch, Joshua asked the crowd if they would want to see him take on the man he knocked out to win the British Heavyweight title in 2015, prompting cheers from the majority inside the O2 Arena...

So if the Whyte fight gets made I don't want to hear any boos. 

We know how the list goes, who is one and two. If there's anyone that deserves a shot, if it isn't them it's you

Whyte then stormed out of the ring when Joshua explained that he was down his list of priorities. 

Meanwhile, Joshua's next fight is pencilled in for 13 April at Wembley - whether his opponent will be Dillian Whyte remains to be seen. Watch the exchange between Whyte and Joshua at the O2 by clicking play in the Twitter video below...
