Boxing fans in stitches after Dillian Whyte asks Eddie Hearn VERY X-rated question about Anthony Joshua during presser
DILLIAN WHYTE left boxing fans in absolute stitches with an X-rated question to Eddie Hearn.
The Brixton Body Snatcher faced off with Anthony Joshua at their first pre-fight press conference ahead of their rematch in London on Monday afternoon.
Matchroom Boxing chief Hearn mediated the presser, which was less eventful than their first presser eight years ago.
And he found himself in Whyte’s firing line for snubbing him during his recent stopover in the USA – during which he visited AJ in Texas.
That led the former WBC heavyweight champion to say: “Can I ask one question: “What does AJ’s balls taste like?”
The entire room – Hearn included – burst into laughter following Whyte’s cheeky question.
Hearn took the jibe in his stead and replied by saying: “You might find out on August 12th.”
That sparked even more laughter, including from Joshua – who said: “F**k around and find out”
Whyte made sure he didn’t let Hearn have the last word, saying: “I think he’ll be teabagging you on the 13th.”
Boxing fans were quick to comment on the hilarious exchange, with one saying: “You gotta love Dillian.”

Another said: “Dillian doesn’t half come out with some funny stuff – doesn’t give a s**t.”
And another said: “Superb delivery from Hearn. Fair play.”
One remarked: “Eddie has ruined Dillian here.”
Another chimed in: “Hearn must have got flashbacks to when Haye put it on him at a presser lol.”
Whyte and Joshua will renew their rivalry at The O2 Arena on August 12 – nearly eight years after their British heavyweight title fight.
Former unified heavyweight champion AJ will look to use Whyte as a springboard for a multi-million-pound December dust-up with Deontay Wilder.
And he admits the stakes are extremely high for his second domestic showdown with his long-time rival.
He said: “It’s a huge night for my career. I’m gonna be victorious, 100 per cent.
“That’s my goal, that’s my plan. And yeah, that’s my motivation.
“So yeah, I’m looking forward to it. Respect to the team. May the best man win.”
