Boxing fans are gearing up to buy tickets for the highly anticipated Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte fight as the demand to attend is mounting.
The “Gypsy King” spoke at a press conference at Wembley Stadium on 1st March for the first time ahead of the ticket sales launch.
Whyte, however, did not attend the press conference due to a disagreement about receiving a cut of pay-per-view sales, according to Fury’s promoter Bob Arum.
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.
The title defence fight was officially announced last week and is taking place at the stadium on Saturday 23rd April.
So, for all the information about getting your gloves on tickets, keep reading below.
