The WBC heavyweight title clash between Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte has actually finally been confirmed.

Fury’s UK-based promoter, Frank Warren, on Friday evening won the highest successful purse bid in boxing history, with his $41,025,000 beating out Matchroom Boxing’s $32,222,222.

For the first time, Whyte will now challenge for a world title against the undefeated Fury.

Fury emerged with 2 big wins from a historical trilogy with Deontay Wilder.

It is now anticipated that Anthony Joshua will rematch Oleksandr Usyk for the IBF, WBA and WBO titles.

Fury posted an Instagram story soon after the announcement hinting that the fight against Whyte will occur in the UK, the words “BIG GK IS COMING HOME, UK BABY” accompany the lyrics to the song ‘Three Lions’.

Whyte has actually long been the WBC’s No 1 ranked competitor but was officially named as the obligatory challenger to Fury’s belt after ‘The Gypsy King’ beat Wilder for the second time.
