Whyte vs Browne.

Explosive sixth-round knockout to retain WBC Silver Heavyweight Title

Massive left hook in the sixth round dropped Lucas ‘Big Daddy’ Browne to the canvas.

This was Whyte’s best display as a professional boxer to date showing his punch variety and power.

Headlining his first show watched by a packed O2 Arena crowd in Greenwich, London, ‘The body snatcher’ forced Browne onto the back foot from the start.

The jab was Dillian’s best weapon, destroying the overweight, under-prepared Australian he severely run out of steam and fast.

Into round number five and Browne’s face was a bloodied mess. The writing eas on the wall.

Round six, The Brixton Man unloaded a massive left, dropping Lucas Browne to the floor.

The Aussie stayed down for a worryingly long time. Doctor’s gave Browne oxygen until eventually he was helped to his feet.

Eddie Hearn’s Reaction :

“This was the most important in the division outside of the world heavyweight championships.

“There are two fights I want Dillian to have: against Anthony Joshua and WBC champion Deontay Wilder.”

Dillian Whyte on beating Lucas Browne :

“I hope he is all right, now where you at wilder, lets go in June. I’m ready! forget Joshua, he won’t be ready in time, let’s do this next baby, let’s go.

“I proved I’m world class. I’ve been working so hard, training away and it’s paid off. I need the challenge and when it is there, I rise. I can crack.

“The O2 is my home, I’m going to knock all these guys out, one by one. I just knocked out a world champion in six rounds. That shows where I am at.

“Wilder’s next fight is me, if he fights anyone else I will go the USA and kick off.”
