After Dillian Whyte's no-show at March's fight announcement and a subsequent 'late flight' ruling him out of yesterday's open workouts, some fans will have been worried that the Londoner may miss more events this week in the build-up to his fight with Tyson Fury.
However, it does appear that Whyte is planning to attend the press conference at Wembley Stadium this afternoon which could get fiery. The 34-year-old has been reportedly unhappy with how the fight has been marketed with such an emphasis on Fury, but today is his chance to speak to the world and you won't want to miss it.
Whyte has been training in Portugal for the fight while Fury has been at home in Morecambe with Sugarhill Steward but both now appear to be in London for what could be one of the biggest British fights of the 21st century. The two will do battle for Fury's WBC and The Ring heavyweight belt s after Whyte became mandatory challenger with a victory last year over Alexander Povetkin.

What has been said so far?
Fury: "People always say I am a master of mind games but I don’t do anything intentionally I just talk. Sometimes it’s a load of old rubbish and sometimes it’s good, most of the time it is entertaining.
"But a lot of fighters have a fear factor that I am going to get in their head. But I’m not Doctor X, I am just a boxer, how can I get inside someone’s brain? Dillian Whyte not getting involved has shown that I am in his mind already. He has stayed away and stayed quiet because he thinks it will stop that. But I know he has been thinking hard about me."
Whyte: “I am very confident in beating him. It will be good to shut a few people up man. It will mean everything to me. I am a guy who as a kid had no future, no education, no family. I am a survivor. I have been on the streets since I was a child.
“I have come from nothing. I had no backing, no support and I didn’t even go to school, so I did not do sports at school.
“For someone like me to come from where I have come from and to be world heavyweight champion of the world, that is true inspiration. That is real inspiration. Not someone who has come from a boxing family, or someone who has gone to the Olympics and been in the Olympic bubble.
