Whyte Goes on a Media Blackout Before the Match

 

Dillian Whyte will go against Tyson Fury in a few days. But before that match, he was absent from his usual build-up on social media. He did not attend the scheduled press conference a few days ago. The boxer has also gone on a media blackout. He is avoiding all types of interviews and social media. Many fans believe that this may be because his rival Tyson Fury is quite famous for his antics that happen before the match and his mental fights with rivals before they go against him. Whyte's decision to not attend the press conference and avoid social media is about him trying to avoid these mental battles and focus only on the match. Tyson Fury has given a sarcastic reaction to Dillian Whyte finally signing the contract for the Tyson Fury vs. Dillian Whyte boxing fight. He also posted a video from the gym alongside Joseph Parker. The boxer has also suggested recently that he is going to retire after his upcoming match against Whyte. He is not interested in facing boxers such as Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua in the future.

 

Fury said: "I'm going to absolutely buff Dillian Whyte live on talkSPORT and take down this big dosser once and for all. Oh my God, Dillian Whyte's signed his contract for $8million. What a surprise. An absolute idiot. Should this even be a talking point? The man signed for the biggest payday he's ever gonna get in his life. Oh my God, my head hurts from all the mind games that Dillian Whyte's been playing on me. Oh my God, I'm so sore, I don't know whether I'm coming or going. My training camp's a mess. I'm gonna absolutely bust Dillian Whyte like a cheap f***ing water balloon. And then when I'm finished with him, Joe Parker's gonna set about him. Because you're useless, you big dosser, you useless sausage.

 

"The only thing I can gain is money. So after this fight, I'll have earned over £100million. If I can spend that, I don't deserve any more, do I? I know Mike Tyson spent half a billion and Evander Holyfield 400 million and all the rest, but I don't live their big flash lifestyles. I live in Morecambe, in Lancashire. It was cheap there. I don't have any great habits like gambling tons of money away. I don't do anything. I can never spend the money I've got."

 

Eddie Hearn Thinks the Tyson Fury vs. Dillian Whyte Match is a Tough Fight

 

Eddie Hearn has given his statements regarding the Tyson Fury vs. Dillian Whyte match. The match is going to be the top fight in the history of British boxing. It is going to break the attendance record at the Wembley Stadium. In an interview, the chairman of Matchroom Boxing has said that the match is going to be a tough one for Tyson Fury. He also spoke about the future of Ryan Garcia after his victory against Emmanuel Tagoe. Ryan Garcia had to fight the complete match for the first time in his career. Ryan Garcia was involved in a boxing match after a lengthy rest. He was looking to make an imposing comeback. But his rival held him off until the final round. Promoter Frank Warren added: "I'm confident this fight will be a record-busting event with life-changing money at stake and even more pride. It's shaping up to be another classic, and talkSPORT's in-depth coverage will capture all the insight and excitement for boxing fans."

 

Eddie said, "I think [Tyson Fury vs. Dillian Whyte] is a very tough fight. On paper right now, Tyson Fury is the best heavyweight in the world. Still, Dillian Whyte can beat anybody on his day. Sometimes, when you look at a fight, and you say, how can they win? He can knock Tyson Fury out. Dillian Whyte has the power, the one-punch power, and he's a fantastic body puncher to knock someone out. But really good for Ryan to get 12 rounds in the bank. And also, listen really good to hear Ryan say after, I need another fight, you know I need to stay active. Because that's definitely what Ryan Garcia needs in his life. I've got just the guy back. I've got just the guy. Listen, there's a Cinderella story in the UK. It's a guy called Maxi Hughes who's on one of the most incredible runs in the division."

 

David Haye Talks About the Tyson Fury vs. Dillian Whyte Match

 

David Haye is a former Heavyweight and Cruiserweight world titleholder. In a recent interview, he talked about the Tyson Fury vs. Dillian Whyte match. He gave his opinion regarding the state of mind of Dillian Whyte at present. Haye said that Whyte is not obligated contractually to promote the boxing match. So he has focused on training and getting the victory in the boxing fight. Haye said, "What's going through his mind is: 'I want to win this fight,' and by tweeting, by doing Instagram pictures, by getting on a private jet and flying to London, that's not going to increase his chances of victory when the first bell goes. What that's going to do is assist in the help of the promotion to make more money. I get it. I respect it because not many people would be ballsy enough to just go against the usual system that the whole boxing circus brings... I actually like it. It shows me that he's not in it for anything other than to win... If I were promoting him, I'd hate it. I'd be pulling my hair out."
