Eddie Hearn said that Frank Warren, who won the bid for the fight for the WBC world heavyweight title between Tyson Fury (31-0-1, 22 KOs) and Dillian Whyte (28-2, 19 KOs), has not made a deposit yet. Warren must provide 10% of the winning amount to the World Boxing Council within 10 days of the tender.
This means the WBC must receive more than $4 million by Monday (the winning bid was $41 million). Warren, in turn, must inform the WBC about the place and date of the fight before February 11. Only after these two conditions are met, both boxers will receive contracts, which must be signed no later than February 21.
According to media reports, the White-Fury fight should take place on April 23 at Wembley Stadium in London or the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. Fury will box in front of the British public for the first time in nearly four years.
