Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte press conference and weigh-in: Dates, times and how to watch

Tyson Fury defends his heavyweight championship as he takes on Dillian Whyte in an all-British heavyweight blockbuster at Wembley Stadium this week. The Gypsy King continues his WBC title defence against Whyte after a stunning victory against Deontay Wilder back in October last year.

It'll be Fury's first fight on home soil since August 2018, after fighting his last five bouts in the United States. With the bout now just around the corner, fight week is hotting up with the main press conference followed by the weigh-in after Tuesday's media workout.
