The Dillian Whyte next fight sees the former world title challenger in a huge all-British heavyweight clash against Joe Joyce. Could we see ‘The Body Snatcher’ in the ring again with bitter rival Anthony Joshua if he defeats ‘The Juggernaut’?

Dillian Whyte Next Fight: Who Is ‘The Body Snatcher’ Going To Face Next? 6y2w67

Dillian Whyte was last in action just before Christmas, fighting twice in 2024 after a 14 month absence from the ring due to failing a performance enhancing drugs test (later confirmed as a contaminated substance). But now he is back in the ring and back to winning ways, there have been various names thrown about as potential opponents for Dillian Whyte’s next fight.

‘The Body Snatcher’ was supposed to fight Anthony Joshua on August 12th in 2023, but then failed the aforementioned drugs test. Since then, he has beaten Christian Hammer in three rounds and Ebenezer Tetteh in seven rounds, with momentum and confidence heading into the New Year.

That brings us to the Dillian Whyte next fight, which has been confirmed. Whyte will take on Joe Joyce in an all-British clash on April 5th at the Co-Op Live Arena in Manchester. The fight tops a bill full of domestic heavyweight dust-ups, with Lawrence Okolie also fighting Richard Riakporhe in the co-main event.

The 36-year-old is used to being the favourite with the Tyson Fury, and will likely be a favourite against Joyce on April 5th. ‘The Body Snatcher’ has only ever lost to top heavyweights, with Joyce looking like his best days are well behind him now too.

Although he has lost a few fights, it’s got to be respected that Whyte has shared the ring with the likes of Anthony Joshua, Joseph Parker and Derek Chisora twice. ‘The Body Snatcher’ remains a big name in British boxing circles, and will be hoping for a huge year in 2025.

Could Dillian Whyte’s Next Fight After Joe Joyce Clash Be The Anthony Joshua Rematch Or Lawrence Okolie Bout? j1l1s

All roads could lead to a potential Anthony Joshua rematch in late 2025 now that Dillian Whyte is officially back and winning fights. This seems like the obvious fight to make for both ‘AJ’ and Whyte, who were scheduled to fight in August 2023 before Whyte tested positive for PEDs.

Joshua’s promoter Tyson Fury clash that British boxing fans have been waiting years for.

In the interim, a fight with Dillian Whyte in the summer could make total sense. For ‘The Body Snatcher’, he is unlikely to get another world heavyweight title shot, unless he comes through someone like Joshua, provided he beats Joe Joyce first too of course.

The best UK boxing betting sites would likely favour Joshua heavily for a rematch with Whyte. However, Whyte is a big puncher and the pair have history, so write him off at your peril.

Other possible names for Whyte are fights against the likes of Jarrell Miller, Lawrence Okolie, the Derek Chisora trilogy or perhaps even Moses Itauma. Time will tell if any of these bouts come to fruition for the Dillian Whyte next fight.

If boxing, Dillian Whyte could be a name to feature on the Riyadh Season cards going forward. But first, he must get another couple of wins under his belt.
