Dillian Whyte feared he would be dead or in jail for murder before his 21st birthday.

The heavyweight world title challenger has the opportunity to recognise a life-long dream on Saturday night when he faces Tyson Fury for the championship in front of 94,000 fans at Wembley Stadium. But he wasn't always a millionaire boxer, coming from the streets of Jamaica to live in the UK when he was a child.

Whyte had a difficult upbringing, and felt he would end up eventually in prison or dead by his early twenties. Ultimately, boxing dragged him out of that place, and he is now just one fight away from becoming the world heavyweight champion, and netting a huge £10million payday.

"Kids like me shouldn't be where I am," Whyte told BT Sport ahead of his fight with Fury this weekend. "Kids like me, where I come from, shouldn't be alive, doing well and surviving.

"I'm far off where I want to be; I'm not comfortable and I'm not content with where I am. I'm still struggling, I'm still driving and I'm still hungry. I've still got fire in my belly but I just want to get in there and put on a big fight and win the title, leave it all in the ring and prove to myself and other people, and my family, that it's not where you come from or where you start,
