Dillian Whyte Rips ‘Coward’ Christian Hammer For Quitting
Dillian Whyte wasn’t happy with Christian Hammer as he believes his foe quit on Sunday night.
Whyte was returning to the ring to take on Hammer in Castlebar. It was an intriguing matchup, but after the fourth round, Hammer didn’t get off the stool so the fight was stopped which was frustrating for Whyte.
“He was negative all through,” Whyte said after the fight. “As soon as I hit him he was negative. I told him afterwards he was a coward and I mean that… “I’m so frustrated. I’ve put so much work into preparing for this fight and to have him quit after just three rounds is so frustrating. I told him afterwards in the ring that I always respected him but tonight he was a coward.”
Dillian Whyte says the camp was tough so he wanted to prove how much better he has gotten, so he was annoyed that Christian Hammer didn’t get off the stool.
Buddy McGirt, the trainer of Whyte, was also annoyed as he says his fighter was just starting to find his groove.
“In the opening two rounds his head was everywhere except where it should be, but at the end of the third round Dillian was beginning to do some of the things we had worked on and then the guy quit,” the trainer said. “I firmly believe it was just a matter of time before he got the guy out of there. I think he should fight again before the end of May. He’s got to keep busy and I personally believe the better the opposition the better Dillian will be. It doesn’t matter what name he comes up against he will get back to the top level again.”
