Information has been officially confirmed that the British judges will not officiate the fight for the WBC heavyweight belt between Tyson Fury (31-0-1, 22 KOs) and Dillian Whyte (28-2, 19 KOs). The fight ...
The third person in the ring will be British Mark Lyson, who was also the referee during the first fight between Dillian Whyte and Alexander Povetkin. A few weeks ago, Frank Warren announced that the British judges would not be working on this fight after a mixed verdict in the fight between Jack Catterall and Josh Taylor.
The Fury-White fight will take place on April 23 at London's Wembley Stadium. Since the fight is a mandatory title defense sanctioned after the tender, Fury will not be eligible for a rematch in the event of a loss.
