The setting for the Saturday, April 23 battle between Fury and Whyte is unbeatable, Wembley Stadium. This soccer colossus will forget his ties to the ball and give himself to the action in the ring. In a record for the time, an attendance of 94,000 has been guaranteed for this fight, 21,000 more than last May’s Canelo Alvarez vs Billy Joe Saunders at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

At stake in this battle between the Gypsy King and the Body Snatcher will be the WBC World Heavyweight title, Fury’s main bargaining chip in his bid to get a fight against Oleksandr Usyk to become the first Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of thefour-belt era (WBC, WBA, WBO, and IBF).

Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte’s purses for their clash at Wembley Stadium

This fight in the Queen Division of boxing set a record since it took place. The bid to organize it, carried out by the WBC, was won by Frank Warren, English promoter, who paid more than 41 million dollars for the right, a record for the organization.

Thus, it was established from the beginning a division of the purse totally in favor of Fury, because he is the most renowned and the current world champion: eighty percent for the Gypsy King and 20 percent for Dillian Whyte. Likewise, it was agreed that the winner of the fight at Wembley Stadium will earn an extra 10 percent.

Thus, Tyson Fury has secured a total of $29.5 million, while Dillian Whyte will pocket $7.5 million. In case of a win, Fury’s purse would amount to $33.6 million; if Whyte comes out with his hand raised and the belt in his possession, he would take home $11.6 million.

The Gypsy King has a record of 31-0-1, 22 KO’s. The greatness of his career, and his current place among the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world, was forged thanks to spectacular victories over the likes of Deontay Wilder, Ukrainian Wladimir Klitschko and Dereck Chisora.

Meanwhile, Dillian Whyte, also known as the Body Snatcher, is the WBC mandatory challenger. With his record of 28-2-0, 19 KOs, he makes it clear that Fury will not be going to a field day when he faces him in the ring at the legendary Wembley Stadium. Whyte’s only two career losses have been to former World Champions Alexander Povetkin and Anthony Joshua.

Tyson Fury’s ally to be in his best shape in two years

94,000 people will gather at London’s Wembley Stadium to enjoy Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte. Undoubtedly, it is a scenario that deserves both fighters to give their best. At least Fury has shown this intention, and he has done it with the help of his nutritionist George Lockhart, who revealed in an interview with Sportsmail what is the diet of his advisor, who weighed 264 pounds for the fight against Whyte, 13 pounds less than in his last fight, when he knocked out Deontay Wilder in Las Vegas.

“He’ll joke about a lot of things, but I’ll tell you Tyson has one of the strongest understandings of nutrition of any of the athletes I’ve worked with“, confessed Lockhart who has accompanied Fury during his long training camp for this fight, which has started on January, even though he did not know who his first opponent would be in 2022.

What diet did Tyson Fury follow to lose 13 pounds for his fight against Dillian Whyte?

As revealed by George Lockhart, who has also worked with UFC star Conor McGregor, Tyson Fury trains twice a day, requiring a 3400 calorie diet in order to perform at 100 percent. In total, there are four meals the Gypsy King eats throughout the day when he is in training camp: 8 am, 12 pm, 3 pm, and 6 pm. All of his macronutrients intakes are tailored daily, including the pre and intra training oat shakes he takes.

Breakfast.The breakfast that Tyson Fury traditionally eats must be caloric enough to withstand his busy day of physical activity. It consists of scrambled eggs, low-oil fried potatoes, black pudding, and avocado.

Lunch.Protein intake makes sense to ensure optimal muscle regeneration and optimization after morning training. Likewise, a good portion of carbohydrates ensures Fury’s energy for his second workout of the day: Ghee-seared salmon, raspberry salsa, spicy rise, and raspberry balsamic dressing.

Snack.The lightest portion of the day, with another extra charge of protein, but important to prevent Tyson Fury’s sugar levels from dropping and to avoid cravings for junk food.It consists of a Greek yoghurt bowl topped with nuts, berries and honey.

Dinner.Contrary to popular belief, the dinner of a high-performance athlete like Fury does not consist of a light meal. There is again protein and a small carbs intaketo keep him full of energy at all times: Eight-hour slow cooked barbeque beef brisket with pickled cabbage.

The British Tyson Fury comes from making two of the best fights between heavyweights that have been seen in recent years against “The Bronze Bomber” Deontay Wilder, in which he defeated the powerful American fighter in a very convincing way. Without a doubt, whenever Fury fights, it is a guarantee of entertainment.

A tough battle awaits the British this time, no less than against his compatriot Dillan Whyte, a tough fighter with 30 fights on his professional record. His last victory against Alexander Povetkin (in which he was vastly superior to the Russian) opened up the possibility of challenging Fury. At 34 years old, this could be one of his last chances to make it to the top of the heavyweight division.

Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte: Storylines and Head-to-Head

The undefeated WBC and The Ring world champion has a professional record of 32 fights, with 31 wins (22 by KO), 1 draw and no losses. He is a fighter with a much higher KO power than his numbers reflect, and despite his large size, he has very good mobility and great technique.

His rival has a record in 30 fights of 28 wins (19 KO) 0 draws and 2 losses. Whyte‘s main virtue is clearly his punch, although we must not forget that Fury resisted Wilder‘s punch and could not be knocked out, so Whyte will have to show something else to beat him.

He learned a lot after his loss to Povetkin, in which an oversight allowed the Russian boxer to win thanks to a shocking uppercut that left Whyte unable to react when it seemed that at any moment he would win the fight by KO. Obviously, in this fight he will have to be even more attentive and not overconfident as he did in the fight against the Russian.

The Gipsy King has been surrounded by controversy after defeating Deontay Wilder by knockout in his trilogy. First it was the fact that he postponed as long as possible accepting to defend his title against Whyte to seek a unification fight against Oleksandr Usyk. Then, it was the disparate manner in which the purse for the April 23 fight will be distributed between him and his opponent.

Similarly, Tyson Fury requested that there be no judges from the United Kingdom after a controversial performance by some British judges in scoring the fight between Josh Taylor and Jack Catterall. He also predicted that he would smash Dillian Whyte the way he punches a balloon. And to all these, he joins the most recent one.

Tyson Fury’s possible new corner member for his fight against Dillian Whyte

As often as possible, Tyson Fury has taken it upon himself to denigrate the talent of Anthony Joshua, fellow countryman, and former World Heavyweight Champion, whom he has said he would beat without hesitation. However, something must have changed in the Gipsy King’s mind, as he has invited him to join his corner for the Wembley fight against Dillian Whyte.

“‘AJ’ can help me in my corner, if he desires so. I know he doesn’t like Dillian Whyte, so he can be part of my team.“, stated Fury in an interview for IFL TV, in which he said againtthatJoshua has no chance to beat him: “At least 10 times he could have fought be but it did not happen due to hisgreed…How could he have beaten me anyway? There is no debate. It’s not an exciting fight. It’s just for money anyway.”.

Likewise, Fury made it clear that whether in his corner or not, both Anthony Joshua and his promoter, Eddie Hearn are invited to his fight against Dillian Whyte: “Yes, there are welcomein my fight. They can be my guests. I have a couple of tickets for them that I would pay for. They can attend as my personal guests. I would give Eddie one and AJ two, cause he has gained some weight recently.“, joked Fury.

Fury vs Whyte is scheduled to take place on April 23rd in London. Wembley Stadium, one of the temples of world soccer, will exchange the ball for a pair of gloves to host this battle in which the WBC World Heavyweight title will be at stake.

It has been confirmed that this fight will be attended by 94,000 spectators at Wembley, one of the highest attendance figures in boxing in recent times. Simply put, in May 2021, the battle between Canelo Alvarez and Billy Joe Saunders, with several 168-pound championships at stake, drew an attendance of 73,000 at AT&T Stadium in Texas.

At which promotional event did Dillian Whyte stand up Tyson Fury?

The open workout session was held prior to the WBC Heavyweight title fight between Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte, in which both fighters show some of their physical and boxing work as part of the fight week promotion.

The Gipsy King fulfilled the commitment and performed for the fans who gathered in London to be close to their idols. However, Dillian Whyte did not make an appearance, as was also the case at the press conference that marked the beginning of the promotion of the fight.

“That’s Dillian’s concern. That’s none of my business. Dillian Whyte, I’m sure he’s got his reasons why he’s not here today. Whatever they are, good luck to him, and I’ll see him on the fight night… I think it’s gonna be real for {Whyte}. If not today or tomorrow or this week, then as soon as I hit him in the mouth on Saturday night. Then, he knows it’s real!“, stated Fury concerning Whyte’s absence according toBoxing Scene.

Dillian Whyte’s dissatisfaction with his fight against Fury despite $7.5 million purse

The purse Dillian Whyte will earn for his fight against Tyson Fury on April 23 will undoubtedly be the highest in the history of his career. However, the British fighter has expressed his disagreement on several occasions. Both with the fight, as well as with the purse and the promotion. This invites to think that his absence could be repeated even on the day of the event.

Whyte’s first disagreement with the fight came from the moment the percentage he would be paid was established: only 10 percent of the profits. This amount is the 7.5 million dollars that he is already guaranteed, obviously, far from the amount that Tyson Fury, current WBC World Heavyweight Champ, will receive.

In addition, Whyte’s animosity towards Fury is latent, since in the only interview he has offered during the promotion of the fight, conducted only with him through Zoom, he denounced that they have not felt valued during the planning of the fight, so he declined not to be part of it.

“This is not the Tyson Fury show. Everyone is saying, Tyson Fury this, Tyson Fury that. He didn’t sell out any of the fights with Deontay Wilder. That’s a fact. The fights were never sold out. This is not the Tyson Fury show. This fight sold out because of me and Tyson Fury…Tyson Fury likes to stand up and shout but they’re not telling the whole story. It’s very hard to clap with one hand. You need two hands to clap.”, stated Dillian Whyte.

WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury will step back into the ring after two extraordinary battles against “The Bronze Bomber” Deontay Wilder, in which he won convincingly (and resoundingly). The undefeated Britishhas a professional record of 32 fights, with 31 wins (22 by KO), 1 draw and no losses.

His rival will be a tough on in the category: none other than interim WBC heavyweight champion Dillian Whyte. The also British comes from beating Russian Alexander Povetkin very forcefully in his last fight, which gave him the opportunity to have this fight with Fury. His record as a professional is 30 fights, with 28 wins (19 KO) 0 draws and 2 losses.

Tyson Fury (31-0-1, 22 KOs), the ongoing WBC World Heavyweight titlist, is one of boxing’s current top attractions. An extroverted and annoying fighter with his opponents below the ring, and an interesting carbon copy of Muhammad Ali above the ring. While this fight is big for his career, it is well known that the Gipsy King has his sights set on winning so he can challenge Oleksandr Usyk or Anthony Joshua in a fight that would produce the first Undisputed Heavyweight Champion in the 4-belt era.

On the other hand, Dillian Whyte is facing her big opportunity, the one she has been pursuing throughout his career. The Body Snatcher (28-2-0, 19 KOs), born in Jamaica, is used to fighting wars in the ring, having previously fought Anthony Joshua, Alexander Povetkin, and Dereck Chisora.

British boxing star banned from Fury vs. Whyte

Speaking to Talk Sport, John Fury, the Gipsy King‘s father, made clear his son’s team’s desire that David Haye, the former boxer and two-division World Champion, not be involved in anything to do with Fury vs Whyte. John does not want him to attend the arena or be involved as a commentator during the broadcast of the fight.

“The type of opponent that you’d need to beat Tyson Fury – Dillian Whyte has all of those attributes. He can punch hard, he’s got cardio for days he’s got the desire and belief in himself. I think Whyte is going to pull off the upset. I think this is his opportunity. I think this is what he’s been waiting for.”.This is what David Haye has stated recently also forTalk Sport.

It seems that Tyson’s explosive and contentious character was inherited from his father, who immediately reacted to Haye’s support of Dillian Whyte: “David Haye is not allowed to comment on that show. David Haye needs to take a back seat in the stands where nobody can see him. I’ve already made it quite clear to Frank Warren,he is not allowed to be commentating on my son’s fight, otherwise there will be a problem.“, stated John Fury.

Dillian Whyte, known as the body snatcher, is the WBC interim champion and is at an 28-2 and 19 KOs record. Both are orthodox boxing style fighters with Fury having the height advantage.

Tyson Fury’s (31-0-1, 22 KOs) last performance in a ring was a brutal KO win against Deontay Wilder in Las Vegas, on what was the third chapter of their boxing tale. On the other hand, Dillian Whyte (28-2-0) will arrive at Wembley with one year of inactivity given that hedefeated Russian Alexander Povetkin via TKO on March 2021.

Fury’s drastic decision to focus on Dillian Whyte

The Gypsy Kingannounced on his social media, on where he is usually really active, that he was going intoa “total media blackout” to focus on his clash against Whyte, for which he was going to “train like the Spartan” he is.

However, one of the last messages sent by Tyson Fury was directed tothe Body Snatcher. He warned him what will happen when they meet on April 23 at Wembley Stadium: “I am going to absolutely bust Dillian Whyte like a cheap water balloon, and I am going to finish with him, cause you are (directing to Whyte) useless you big dosser,you useless sausage“, stated the current WBC Heavyweight titlist.

Dillian Whyte’s trainer warns Tyson Fury about his boxer

In an interview with Talk Sport, Whyte’s trainer Xavier Miller anticipated a big upset in the upcoming Heavyweight clash of April, as he has been for more than two years in Dillian’s corner, enough to know his scopes and limits.

“I just think that Dillian is going to be a little bit too much for him.Dillian likes to be in exciting fights.I think he (Fury) found the right dance partner in Deontay Wilder, but Wilder is not Dillian.Wilder has a right hand and it is real and I respect it, but Dillian has a lot more tools in the box. It’s a different puzzle for Tyson, there’s going to be a lot for him to deal with.” said Miller.
