Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte press conference live stream and start time tonight

A surprise press conference will be held tonight (Thursday) featuring both Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte ahead of their fight next week. Fury defends his heavyweight championship as he takes on Whyte in an all-British heavyweight blockbuster at Wembley Stadium next week.

In preparation to face Whyte, Fury has begun training, pictured recently training with controversial former drug cheat Jarrell Miller.

Whyte has been silent throughout the build-up towards the biggest fight of his career and chose not to show up at the first press conference last month. The reason for Whyte's absence from the event had been confirmed by Fury's co-promoter Bob Arum, who has stated that it's due to the fact he will not be paid an upside.

And he’s not coming to the press conference because we wouldn’t give him a percentage of the upside [from pay-per-view sales], which you don’t get in a purse bid."

Since then, Whyte has not said a word about the upcoming fight - whilst training abroad in Portugal and Gibraltar. But tonight, we'll hear him speak for the first time, along with Fury, Arum and Frank Warren.
