Dillian Whyte offered hope of avenging defeat by Anthony Joshua in rematch

David Haye has backed Dillian Whyte to produce an improved performance if he earns a rematch with Anthony Joshua.

The 'Body Snatcher' will return to the ring for the first time since losing to Tyson Fury in April, when he takes on unbeaten Jermaine Franklin at the OVO Wembley Arena on Saturday night. A win for the British star could set up a second meeting with long-term rival Joshua, who is open to a showdown in his return next year.

Whyte's first meeting with Joshua took place in 2015 and ended in a KO defeat for the underdog. Former world champion Haye has stated that both men will have learned from their losses and expects them to put on a show if a fight takes place in 2023.
