Boxing tonight: TV channels, live streams, start times and fight cards

For the first time in almost 30 years, an all-British heavyweight world title fight takes place tonight as Tyson Fury looks to defend his WBC title against Dillian Whyte in front of 94,000 fans at Wembley.

Fury defends his belt for the second time since winning it against Deontay Wilder two years ago, knocking out the American in their thrilling trilogy bout last October. Whyte fights for the first time since winning back his interim title against Alexander Povetkin last March.

Whyte looks to hand the unbeaten Fury his first loss, with 'The Gypsy King' vowing this will be the last fight of his 14-year professional career. The English capital is set for a fantastic night of boxing, so here is all you need to know ahead of the heavyweight clash...

Quotes corner

Tyson Fury : “I've been playing a lot of golf in Morecambe, with trainer SugarHill, to prepare for this fights and that has really improved my right hand and putting my shoulder really into my shots.

“I'm driving the ball around 400 yards and I think it really has helped. I hit around 200 balls a day as part of my training, we do loads of different things to spice things up. We've had a lot of fun in camp. It's not like I'm going to the guillotine."

Dillian Whyte : "It's not the Tyson Fury show, his fights with Deontay Wider didn't sell out. This show sold out because of me and Tyson Fury. This is about Tyson Fury and me, it's the Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte show.

"I don't dance to no-ones tune. We can dance together but it can't be one-way traffic. I'm a disciplined guy, I've learned to be disciplined over the years."
