Whyte returns with a win after PED-related absence

Dillian Whyte TKO3 Christian Hammer... British heavyweight Dillian Whyte returned to the ring on Sunday for his first action since 2022. Whyte's 2023 saw a huge rematch vs. Anthony Joshua cancelled due to peformance enhancing drug issues. Fighting in Ireland, Whyte battered Christian Hammer for three rounds, with Hammer failing to come out for round four. Now 27-10 overall, the Romanian-born Hammer has lost four of his last five, albeit against top competition. Whyte, a former WBC interim title holder, is now 30-3 as a pro, with the losses coming against Joshua, Tyson Fury and Alexander Povetkin.
