Fight night settings

Things are looking pretty majestic right now inside Wembley Stadium.

No fear

David Haye ignored John Fury's warning not to commentate Tyson Fury's grudge match with Dillian Whyte.

Dotting dad John was left furious with Haye's tipping of Whyte to win tonight's title fight, so much so he demanded someone else call the fight.

But the former WBA heavyweight champion has defied John's warning to fulfil his duties for BT Sport.

Haye drew the ire of fellow former fighter John earlier this month by saying: “If I had a pound, I’d put it on Dillian Whyte for the upset.

"Yeah, I’m going with Dillian with the massive, massive upset. We had an upset with Anthony Joshua [against Oleksandr Usyk].

"It happens, crazy stuff happens. And in the heavyweight division, when you think you have things figured out, something crazy happens.

"And someone crazy is Dillian Whyte, and the fact that he’s not interested in doing any promotion, all he wants to do is get in the ring and fight, I think that’s a positive."

No average Joe

Joe Joyce and Joseph Parker are nearing a deal to fight each other.

Promoter Frank Warren announced the fight is nearly done for July with just contract left to sign.

What the ref?

Tonight's referee having a final word with Dillian Whyte.

We're just ONE fight away from the main-event, the big one, the one we've all been waiting for.

But first, Ekow Essuman fights Darren Tetley.
