Frank Warren has confirmed that a replacement is on standby to step in for Dillian Whyte should he pull out of the fight with Tyson Fury later this month. There have been rumblings online about Whyte's social media blackout, whilst he remained in Portugal for last month's press conference.
We're now just weeks away all-British heavyweight blockbuster that is will be held at Wembley Stadium. Fury continues his WBC title defence against Whyte after a stunning victory against Deontay Wilder back in October last year.
Fury had originally hoped to face Oleksandr Usyk in a unification bout, but with both Whyte and Anthony Joshua refusing to step-aside, he will now face the Body Snatcher whilst Usyk faces Joshua. Whyte has not fought since last March when he dispatched Alexander Povetkin.
