The countdown to Tyson Fury's heavyweight title defence against Dillian Whyte is well and truly on, with less than two months until the big date. Wembley Stadium plays host to the April 23rd bout, which marks Fury 's first fight in the UK since 2019 - and it's set to be one of the biggest sporting events of the year.
Anticipation for the fight is set to rise further following today's press conference, which is taking place ahead of tomorrow's ticket release. Fury will be in the spotlight for the event and is expected to fire jibes towards Whyte, who is not set to attend the event.
The fact that Whyte will not be in attendance is a major disappointment, especially as he's yet to break his silence on the bout. His absence is due to the fact that he will not be paid an upside for his appearance, with Fury's camp stating that it was never offered in a purse bid.
