The undefeated Fury is a huge favourite going into his second defence of the iconic WBC strap - which he ripped from Deontay Wilder's clutches in February 2020.
But former world title challenger Derek Chisora - who has faced both men twice - reckons Whyte has got what it takes to spring one of the biggest upsets in British boxing history.
Del Boy told : "He [Dillian Whyte] wants it, he's hungry.
"The problem is, yeah, when fighters make 20, 30, or 40 million, they're not hungry anymore.

"There's only one fighter who has ever been hungry when he's made £100m and that's Floyd Mayweather.
"When the rest of the fighters make all this money, they're not hungry anymore, they just do it for the sake of doing it.
"But when someone who is hungry [and] wants it more, like Dillian right now, he's going to come in and die in that ring that day."
Chisora first locked horns with Fury in 2011, suffering a unanimous decision defeat to the Gypsy King.

Their rematch went even worse for 'War' as he was pulled out by his corner after ten one-sided rounds.
Many thought Chisora deserved the win when he first fought Whyte in 2016, going down on a split decision.
But there was no need for judges in their second clash two years later when Chisora was sparked out by The Bodysnatcher in the tenth round.
Fury, 33, branded Whyte an idiot for kicking up a fuss over his split of the £30million purse.
White will take home a guaranteed £6million for the domestic dust-up but will end up pocketing £9m if he claims the WBC strap
After the announcement of the fight, Fury took to and said: “Oh my God, Dillian Whyte signed his contract for $8million [£6m].
"What a surprise, an absolute idiot. Should this even be a talking point?
"The man signed for the biggest payday he's ever going to get in his life."
