Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte are gearing up for their upcoming confirmed fight as the “Gypsy King” prepares to defend his title.
Fury managed to hold onto his WBC heavyweight crown in Las Vegas as he knocked out Deontay Wilder yet again in October.
The 33-year-old boxer was supposed to face Oleksandr Usyk in a unification fight but both Whyte and Anthony Joshua turned down the allotted step-aside money, meaning that fight is still on hold.
Now, Usyk and Joshua are gearing up to face each other soon, meaning WBC mandatory Whyte now has the chance to face off with Fury in his following defence.
