“These guys saying I am a quitter. I want to get in the ring and show them how much of a quitter I am.

“I want to make them quit. If they can make the fight happen, then make the fight happen.

“It’s what I want now just to shut them all up and all the guys that have something to say I’ll deal with them.”

Whyte, 34, has the experience over Dubois but this does not faze him.
