"Who would have thought it?" Tyson Fury asked, almost incredulous. "Even we didn't think we'd be doing 90-odd thousand at Wembley."
Curiously, though, Wednesday's press conference was the first time these two fighters had come face-to-face in the build up to this fight. "You lot hear one side because they say a lot of things. "Tyson Fury is not this massive giant superstar everyone says he is, he's not. When Fury first made the claim at the fight's unveiling press conference in March, most took his words with a pinch of salt. "It ranks right at the top." Even forgetting his power and skill, Whyte's hunger alone makes him a formidable foe. "Obviously the biggest crowd [in Europe] and you've got two top heavyweight fighters going head-to-head. Every good dog has its day." This opportunity for a shot at a world title has been long-awaited -- and is well-deserved -- and the 34-year-old is ready to take it with both hands, with multiple reports claiming this has been by far the most intense training camp of his career. Heavyweight boxing has been blessed with numerous memorable fights in recent years, with Fury involved in many of the best, and Parker believes Saturday's fight is "right up there." Much has changed since Fury and Whyte were those fledgling fighters -- "a great journey," as Fury called it -- and the two are now the main attraction in one of the biggest nights in boxing history. That "someone," he specifies, is Whyte. "Tyson is going to knock him out in the middle rounds, between five and nine," Parker adds with assurance.
The WBC heavyweight title is on the line from Wembley Stadium in London on Saturday night.
And if his public workout this week was any indication, in which he worked out from southpaw for the entirety, it's likely "The Gypsy King" has a few wrinkles up his sleeve to keep Whyte guessing. In the end, Whyte pushes the pace consistently enough to where it's either him or you that gets stopped. In many ways, Fury's third fight against Wilder last fall was the perfect prerequisite for the challenge Whyte brings to the table. Instead, the 34-year-old Whyte is expected to bring a sturdy challenge to the 6-foot-9 Fury thanks to his 6-foot-4 frame, durability and punching power. I've had a couple slipups along the way, but I'm here and I'm ready to go. Because of that, Fury will need to properly mix his two styles as both boxer and puncher. The fans are in for a real treat," Fury said. Whyte has been known for his often cantankerous ways in the past, which have included storming out of press conferences while protesting his purse. Given Fury's pre-fight comments, it's an inevitability he appears to accept, which is why his predictions have consistently been a knockout. Can't get enough boxing and MMA?

If Fury (31-0-1, 22 KOs) emerges victorious, he'll earn a career-high $33,640,500 (a $4,102,500 win bonus is on the line.)

Fantastic support from the British people." "For the last fight, it's no secret, [trainer SugarHill Steward] can tell you, we had about four, five weeks training time for that, and in that time we had to cross the Atlantic to Vegas in a different time zone," Fury told ESPN when asked to explain all the pounds that were shed. The 33-year-old Fury is on top of the game and is guaranteed $29,538,000. We're in shape!"
Tyson Fury, the heavyweight champion from Great Britain, enters what could be his last fight facing uncomfortable questions.
On Zoom, Fury doesn’t look as round as he’s letting on; he’s been working with a nutritionist in training camp, eating healthy doses of fish and rice and vegetables to fuel up for the fight. “We were told that the guy who is making arrangements for us to be involved wanted a consulting fee for every one of Tyson Fury’s fights,” says Arum. “So we entered a deal with a company controlled by Kinahan and paid a fee for every one of Fury’s fights we promoted, in accordance with the contract.” The real people of the world.” He believes that to be the truth. Plus, if he wins, a megabout with the winner of a likely Joshua-Oleksandr Usyk rematch could be too lucrative to turn down. By the time it gets to normal fight time, you’ll be well oiled up and ready to rock and roll.” MTK Global has said that Kinahan ceased involvement with the company in 2017, the year that Fury signed on with MTK Global. In 2020, Fury praised Kinahan for helping broker a fight with Anthony Joshua, another British heavyweight. “The Kinahan Organized Crime Group (KOCG) smuggles deadly narcotics, including cocaine, to Europe, and is a threat to the entire licit economy through its role in international money laundering,” Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Brian E. Nelson said in a statement. “The king must retire on top of the world,” Fury, 33, tells TIME in a Zoom conversation from London. “I’ve won every belt there is to win in the game. “I want it to be a final decision,” Fury says. Fury’s leaving the door slightly open for a return to the ring. “The best thing anyone who’s suffering mental health problems can do is seek medical advice immediately,” says Fury. “The sooner you get medical help, the quicker you can return to being well again.
Even before Saturday's fight at Wembley Stadium in London, the undefeated heavyweight champion was pestered with disruptions.
In October, Fury survived a pair of knockdowns to stop Wilder in the 11th round of their third bout. Fury has not spoken nearly that explicitly about his relationship with Kinahan, whose ties to pro boxing are both obvious and opaque. “They’re going to see a good tear-up,” said Fury, 33, who weighed in at 264 pounds. He can be the tactical boxer who first claimed a world title with a cautious decision over Wladimir Klitschko in November 2015. He has scored 19 knockouts in his 28 wins and has defeated a series of first- and second-tier heavyweight contenders. Fury was repeatedly asked about his relationship with Kinahan at a press event this week but declined to elaborate.

Whyte, 34, will attempt to win The Ring belt for the first time when he pursues an underdog 29th victory in 31 fights. When that fight failed to go ahead, Fury, who was recovering from mental health and addiction issues at the time, was stripped of the title. Fury won Klitschko's WBA, IBF, WBO and The Ring titles in Germany, only to vacate them during a pending investigation over anti-doping and medical issues in October 2016. The Ring introduced policy changes during the 1990s and in 2012. Fans and commentators have long criticized the number of titles available in boxing.

Having fought Tyson Fury for a full 12 rounds, few know his skill set like I do. Here's what makes him a special heavyweight.
The best thing that he could do against Dillian is keep his distance because he has better reach and is quite a bit taller. Whyte, however, is heavier than Wilder, has better defense and is better on the inside. And I’ve been saying for some time that I felt like somebody was going to come in and run Wilder over. He does what he’s good at. In comparison to Anthony Joshua, who has lost a lot of his confidence, Fury has great momentum and always has great belief in himself. He’s taller than everyone, so when his opponents come in, he has to lean over them and push them down. Fury has to be awkward and he use his feints a lot in this matchup. He’s really fast for a guy that big. He does it and it really works for him because he’s so tall and heavy. And even though he’s so big and heavy, he moves really well. He uses a lot of feints and he has really long arms, so when he’s feinting you get a reaction and then people don’t know, with his reach, where shots are coming from. His intelligence and confidence also helps him in the ring, as his strategy against myself, Whyte or Wilder will all be different.

Tyson Fury will make a triumphant homecoming against Dillian Whyte at Wembley on Saturday. Whatever happens, the WBC heavyweight champion's career story ...
The knockdowns salvaged a draw for Wilder on the cards and Fury decided nothing would be left to chance the next time. In his 30s, he reimagined himself as a front-foot counter puncher, sitting down on his shots and looking to do damage. Their third fight brought heightened levels of violence, with Wilder switching effectively to the body early on before being floored again in the third. Those brutal Wilder wars are the main reason Fury, in all his chaos and contradiction, will be cheered to ring by the bulk of a 94,000 crowd at Wembley as the WBC champion. Fury told Rolling Stone of the abuse he received on account of being a traveller and victimisation of his community in general - abhorrent stuff that no human should experience. When these matters have been raised since, as was the case with the Kinahan affair this week, Fury’s approach has been to put up the shutters. During this period, in a 2011 interview with The Guardian, Fury said: “There is a name for what I have, where, one minute I'm happy, and the next minute I'm sad, like commit-suicide-sad. The controversy re-emerged in 2020, with Tyson Fury now the WBC heavyweight champion after his remarkable comeback. One minute I'm over the moon and the next minute I feel like getting in my car and running it into a wall at a hundred miles an hour. He stands alone among British fighters to have crossed the Atlantic and signed up for the biggest fights, insofar as he emerged still undefeated and with his reputation massively enhanced. There were uneven performances, fluctuations in weight and trips to the canvas against smaller men. I said in this camp, I wanted it to be a great camp.
The Sporting News has you covered when it comes to when Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte will make their way to the ring.
The Fury vs. Tyson Fury vs. Fury vs. Fury vs. Whyte main card will air on ESPN+ pay-per-view. Dillian Whyte will take place Saturday, April 23. The winner of this Saturday’s fight could be on a path to a heavyweight unification fight. He won the interim WBC heavyweight title in 2019 against Oscar Rivas but was later suspended and stripped of the belt after a drug test before being reinstated. After fighting Deontay Wilder to a draw, he beat Wilder in a rematch in February 2020 for the WBC title. “The Body Snatcher” lost the belt in August 2020 in dramatic fashion against Alexander Povetkin. Whyte won the title back in March via TKO in what was the final fight of Povetkin’s career. After years of waiting, Dillian Whyte is finally getting his shot at the WBC heavyweight champion. Tyson Fury is more than ready for the challenge.
Both British heavyweights are in confident mood after a tumultuous buildup to their epic Wembley showdown.
In August 2020, in the midst of lockdown, he fought the old Russian warhorse Alexander Povetkin. The acute loneliness of heavyweight boxing engulfed Whyte after he was knocked out in the fifth round by a sickening uppercut. For all the enduring unpredictability of some heavyweight contests, and the volatile lives of both men, Fury should win again. He fathered a child at the age of 13 and his life has often been tumultuous. Obviously the crowd does play a part and there are going to be 94,000 people there. It says much about Whyte’s nerve, and the fearlessness which Fury recognises, that he demanded a rematch. If it’s written in the stars that I win again, we will have a drink after the fight to a very successful night and career. Fury has had an often difficult fight week and there were occasions when he has been riled by persistent questions about his past working relationship with Daniel Kinahan, the alleged leader of a drug cartel. He remains unbeaten after those 32 fights and Fury really believes he is the best heavyweight in the world by some distance, “I know he thinks he’s the six foot nine inch version of Muhammad Ali, George Foreman and Mike Tyson rolled into one,” Whyte said, “but he’s only a man. I will be leaving every ounce of strength and energy I have in the ring. I’ve sparred him a lot in the past and he didn’t show any weaknesses. A couple of days later, in the shadow of the huge arena where Fury will defend his WBC title against his British challenger, the world champion and undoubted favourite was just as blunt and respectful. He will receive 20% of the record $41,025,000 fight purse.
On the eve of his heavyweight title defense, Tyson Fury downplayed any ties to accused Irish drug-cartel leader Daniel Kinahan.
I’m a boxing man and I’ve got a fight to think about, and that’s enough said." "What Bob Arum does with his own money is his own business, it’s not my concern. We have to listen to the government. I don’t want to get into trouble with the U.S. government. When reporters pressed him about his ties to Kinahan, who is now based in Dubai, Fury said: "None of your business. You can’t detail a powerful tale of personal recovery and then fail to disavow an accused drug lord. Asked pointedly if he’d sever all ties with Kinahan, Fury paused and said, "What the U.S. have said, the U.S. have said. And I don’t do anything except box." What a man does with his own business, I don’t care. I don’t care. It’s been a great journey." "It’s none of my concern and none of my interest at all," Fury said to SkySports. "It has nothing to do with me.
The Sporting News looks into who could be the next line for the WBC heavyweight title if Tyson Fury retires with the belt.
Sulaiman has a lot to think about if Fury is out of the picture. According to the WBC's rankings, Joe Joyce is ranked second and is the WBC Silver heavyweight champion. Wilder is ranked first, but after losing two in a row to Fury, it is unknown if he would be chosen for a title shot. The WBC heavyweight title would be vacated if Fury won and retired. He did a bit of that in the third Wilder fight. In a trilogy fight back in October, Fury beat Wilder via knockout to retain the title.
The WBC heavyweight title is on the line from Wembley Stadium in London on Saturday night.
