Dillian Whyte accepts rematch with Joseph Parker after fight call-out

Dillian Whyte has verbally agreed to fight Joseph Parker one month on from his knockout loss to Tyson Fury.

Whyte missed out on the WBC heavyweight title when he was knocked out by Fury in front of 90,000 fans at Wembley on April 23. 'The Bodysnatcher' admits he wants the biggest fights possible and has agreed to face Fury's training partner Parker next.

The pair first met in 2018 when Whyte won by unanimous decision despite being knocked down at the end of the fight and saved by the final bell. Replying to the New Zealander's recent call out, Whyte wrote: "I just want the [biggest] at this stage in my career let's go. Put hands on you once and will do it again."
