Dillian Whyte misses workout session ahead of heavyweight title fight with Tyson Fury

Dillian Whyte was once again a no show in the build-up to his heavyweight world title fight with Tyson Fury at Wembley Stadium on Saturday.

The two British fighters were due to take part in an open workout at BOXPARK Wembley but only defending WBC champion Fury turned up in London on Tuesday.

It came on the back of Whyte's failure to show up for the first fight press conference on March 1, a decision that left some questioning whether the bout would actually take place.

But any fears were eased when Whyte, 34, tweeted for the first time about the fight last Wednesday before attending Thursday’s virtual press conference.

Fury, meanwhile, has repeated his claim that he is going to retire after the Whyte fight, something that even his father, John Fury, insists will not happen.

The Gypsy King is undefeated in 32 bouts, drawing once, and has not fought since beating American Deontay Wilder in the their third fight in October, 2021.

“There’s nothing for me to achieve,” Fury said to talkSPORT Boxing Insider at Tuesday's workout. “I’ve won every belt in the world that there is to win. I’ve broke all records.

“No one in my era has won the Ring Magazine belt, only me. No one in my era has ever been lineal champion, only me.

“I’ve won every single belt there is to win in the sport and I’m getting out healthy, in one piece and undefeated.”

Asked what this means for the much-anticipated fight against another British fighter in Anthony Joshua, Fury added: “Nah, they’ve had their chances. That’s sailed, gone.
