Saturday, 2 p.m. Tyson Fury is going to defend his title against Dillian Whyte.
For more than four years, the mandatory challenger for theWBC has been the man who is getting his shot at a major title. He fought Alexander Povetkin again in March of 2021. Dereck Chisora, Joseph Parker and Oscar Rivas have all been beaten by Beyond Povetkin.
It has been an amazing journey, from where I started and being fat as well as being a boxer. To coming back and being mentally out, a druggie and an alcoholic. After all these years, four years away, and now being back in England, I am fighting my old friend Dillian Whyte for all the glory. Who would have thought that? We are looking forward to a great night. This will break all records.
It's a dream come true to fight for the title at home.
It means everything. It is massive. It is a big fight, and I have been waiting for it. Tyson said we didn't expect to be here. I have taken risks time and time again. I have had a few slip-ups along the way, but I am here and ready to go.
