Breakdown: Dillian Whyte vs. Oscar Rivas fight preview and prediction

Saturday is a stupidly loaded day for combat sports. Not only is there UFC Fight Night: RDA vs. Edwards in San Antonio, and Manny Pacquiao vs. Keith Thurman, but you have a heavyweight tilt at the O2 Arena in London, United Kingdom featuring contenders Dillian Whyte (25-1, 18 KOs) and Oscar Rivas (26-0, 18 KOs). Sky Box Office has the PPV for UK viewers, while North Americans can catch all the action on DAZN at 1 PM ET/10 AM PT.

Dillian Whyte

  • Nine-fight win streak - Whyte’s sole defeat came against Anthony Joshua back in 2015, but Dillian did have Joshua hurt early in the contest with a left hook before Joshua pulled away and knocked him unconscious.
