Tyson Fury has confirmed his fighting weight for his upcoming heavyweight blockbuster with Dillian Whyte. The Gypsy King is finally set to face Whyte for the WBC heavyweight championship after the fight was mandated, having encountered significant delays, with purse bids being pushed back on four occasions.
An agreement was finally reached and the countdown to the fight is on - which will be Fury 's first in the UK since 2019 - after the first press conference was held on Tuesday afternoon. Dillian Whyte did not show up to the event, with Fury's promoter Frank Warren berating Whyte's lack of professionalism in the build-up to the fight at Wembley Stadium on April 23.
But Fury said he was unfazed by Whyte's no show - adding that he does not care about his opponents antics, as he stated that this would be the 'Tyson Fury roadshow'.
