‘The Gyspy King’ and ‘The Body Snatcher’ are set to clash later this month at Wembley Stadium. The bout will be the second title defense for WBC Heavyweight Champion Fury, who is coming off an 11th-round knockout of Deontay Wilder last October.
The bout is expected to be one of the biggest in British boxing history. Now, one of the biggest U.K. fighters ever has given his thoughts. Ricky Hatton gave some advice to Whyte in a recent interview with talkSPORT.
The former welterweight champion opined that the only way for ‘The Body Snatcher’ to win is via a finish, claiming there’s no reason for him to try and out-box Fury.
Hatton said:

Tyson Fury vs. Dillian Whyte is one of the biggest British boxing matches ever
Tyson Fury vs. Dillian Whyte is not just one of the biggest boxing matches of the year. The bout is actively breaking records as one of the most-hyped British fights ever.
For years, there was talk of a massive all-UK showdown between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury at Wembley Stadium. Despite multiple attempts, the bout is yet to come to fruition. Now, Whyte is in for the role of ‘AJ’.
The bout between ‘The Body Snatcher’ and ‘The Gyspy King’ is set for Wembley Stadium later this month. While the attendance figures were initially expected to be around 80,000 fans, promoter Frank Warren has officially gotten the clearance for more fans.
In doing so, the event is set to break an important record. The expected attendance for Tyson Fury vs. Dillian Whyte will be 94,000 fans, marking a new British boxing record.
