Promoter Eddie Hearn expects to see tomorrow's Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte purse bid delayed for a third time as talks continue between Fury and Oleksandr Usyk.
An offer from the Middle East could include step aside money for Whyte and Anthony Joshua, who are both set to fight for their rival's world titles, to allow Fury and Usyk to fight for the undisputed crown.
And with Whyte still locked in a legal battle with the WBC over the 80-20 purse split that favours Fury, the purse bids are now set to be delayed again.
