Dillian Whyte reveals final fight wishlist before retirement

Dillian Whyte has revealed a shortlist of opponents he would like to face before bringing his long and eventful boxing career to a close.

The 38-year-old heavyweight, known as "The Bodysnatcher", has enjoyed a rollercoaster journey in the sport, sharing the ring with some of boxing’s biggest names.

Throughout his career, Whyte challenged Tyson Fury for the WBC heavyweight title, held the WBC interim belt after defeating Oscar Rivas, and secured notable victories over fighters including Joseph Parker and Derek Chisora.

However, his career has also featured setbacks.

Whyte suffered a dramatic knockout defeat to Alexander Povetkin in 2020 before avenging the loss in a rematch, while his most recent outing ended in disappointment when rising British prospect Moses Itauma stopped him inside the opening round in August 2025.

Despite approaching his 40th birthday, Whyte insists he is not ready to retire and remains eager to take on several high-profile rivals.

Speaking to iFL TV, he said if he gets opportunity he would love to fight against Chisora, Miller, Ruiz and AJ.

“Anyone. I would love to fight Derek Chisora if I got the opportunity. I would love to fight Baby Miller, Andy Ruiz. I would love to fight ‘AJ’, any one of them kind of guys. ‘AJ’ should have fought me instead of fighting Prenga.”

Whyte’s comments come as Anthony Joshua prepares to face Kristian Prenga in his first appearance since knocking out Jake Paul in December.
