April 23 WBC World Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury (31-0-1, 22 KOs) will face the mandatory challenger Dillian Whyte (28-2, 19 KOs). According to the outspoken champion as always, White is an average boxer, whose shortcomings will be visible in the fight for the belt.
“White is a very mediocre heavyweight. Height is one meter ninety, weight is 110 kilograms, weak legs, weak arms, strength in fists is average. It was made for a gifted boxer like me. I'll chop it down like a tree," Fury promised.
The fight between Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte is likely to take place at London's Wembley Stadium. If Fury wins, then this year he can fight for the title of absolute champion in the United Arab Emirates with the winner of the May rematch of Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk for the IBF, WBA and WBO titles.
Fury and White have until February 21st to sign their contracts. The official announcement of the fight is expected by the end of this month.
