Charles Martin calls out Dillian Whyte and vows to KO him so he can secure Anthony Joshua rematch

Charles Martin has branded Dillian Whyte an 'easy fight' and said he wants to KO him and set up a rematch with Anthony Joshua.

The American former IBF champion was famously dethroned in just two rounds of his first defence against AJ in 2016.

He's since suffered a second defeat to Adam Kownacki, but gave a good showing in that contest.

In the aftermath, he's rebuilt himself as a contender by knocking out Gerald Washington on the undercard of Tyson Fury's rematch win over Deontay Wilder.

Now, his hope is to face British foes once again.

Eddie Hearn has stated that Whyte's next fight will take place Stateside and Martin has put himself forward as a possible opponent.

Martin told : "I want to fight the best available, and I want to welcome Dillian Whyte to the United States with another knockout loss.

"Whyte is an easy fight. He takes too many clean punches...

"Unfortunately, Eddie Hearn don't want nothing to do with me beating his man...

"Once I heard Whyte was coming to the US, I can't resist wanting to make that fight.

"Whyte ain't s***. That fight would be a piece of cake for me in the US."

Reflecting on the AJ defeat, he added: "Joshua never fought the real me.

"Taking that fight when I was hurt and unprepared is the biggest mistake of my life, but it's a mistake I'm gonna correct before I retire.

"It's the only reason I'm still fighting.

"Knocking out Dillian Whyte would put me one step closer to Joshua."
