The World Boxing Council (WBC) has officially clarified the conditions under which teams Tyson Fury (31-0-1, 22 KOs) and Dillian White (28-2, 19 KOs) to negotiate the organization of the fight for the heavyweight championship belt.

According to the wishes of the WBC, negotiations between representatives of Fury (champion) and White (mandatory challenger) should be completed by January 11.

If by this time the interested parties do not come to an agreement, the organizer of the competition will choose a tender. It is important to note that it was decided that in the event of a tender, up to 80% of the amount declared in the winning bid would go to Fury. The WBC's position on this issue will certainly be greeted with unfavorable by the White team, because according to the rules of the federation, as interim champion, he should be entitled to 45% of the total financial pool.
