Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte: Carl Froch claims the latter has a ‘massive chance’ of winning

Dillian Whyte has a ‘massive chance’ of beating Tyson Fury, British boxing legend Carl Froch has claimed.

The former sparring partners will settle old scores and reopen old wounds in front of 94,000 fans at a packed out Wembley Stadium in London on Saturday night.

“He’s a decent puncher and he will have trained his best for this.
