Wilder's comments did not sit well with the boxing community as they came just a month after the tragic death of Scott Westgarth.
Now Whyte has come out to condemn Wilder for his comments and questioned the American's mentality.
Speaking after Anthony Joshua defeated Joseph Parker for the WBO title, Whyte said: “When you put a fighter like Lucas Browne like I did last week it is worrying.
"I celebrated at first but when I saw he was down I was worried because people have kids and families to go home to.
“I don’t know how Deontay Wilder’s head works, he has not turned up here tonight because he heard I was coming.
"I don’t understand his mentality, he is a weird guy, he is extremely deluded and confused.

Wilder is being lined up for heavyweight unification showdown with Joshua later this year with the world desperate to see the two in the ring.
