DILLIAN WHYTE is raging that his Anthony Joshua showdown has been axed for an April 1 ‘battle of the fools’.
Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn billed Whyte’s November win over Jermaine Franklin as the semi-final for the chance to meet his man.
Dillian Whyte beat Jermaine Franklin back in November
Now he is fuming that the American will face Anthony Joshua instead of him
AJ got his revenge in a 2015 British title barnburner after Whyte’s amateur victory six years before.
So, when Whyte beat Franklin with new trainer Buddy McGirt, the trilogy fight was expected to be signed and sealed.
But Joshua is now set to face Franklin on April 1 — on a pricey DAZN pay-per-view — and Whyte believes fans deserve better.
Whyte told SunSport: “I am all right but facing the usual b******s, I just want to make some fights but it’s f***ing frustrating.
“Everyone was told, all the boxing fans, the winner of me and Franklin fights AJ, so this is a f***ed up thing.
“I would have been better off losing the Franklin fight and getting the AJ fight!”
He continued: “I know DAZN need content for their subscribers but why choose to fight a low-profile American coming off a loss instead of having a massive British tear-up?
“It’s no surprise to me that they have chosen April 1 for this battle of the fools.

“I faced Franklin, the most dangerous and undefeated version of him, and beat him.
“Eddie was promising him many millions to fight AJ if he beat me.
“It’s protecting AJ because they all know if he loses again he will probably jack it in and a lot of people will be left with limp d***s in their hands.”
