Whyte will take home a guaranteed £6m for his grudge match with the Gypsy King but will leave Wembley with £9m if he springs one of the biggest upsets in British boxing history.

"If I was such an easy fight, why is he not in any rush to fight me? He said before beating Wilder, 'When I beat Wilder, I'm going to give Dillian Whyte his title shot.' He just talks rubbish. This is war, let's go."
Whyte has also claimed that Fury refused to a mandated fight against him for the WBC diamond belt.
The Body Snatcher added: "It makes me angry and it frustrates me because Tyson Fury refused to fight me in a mandated fight for the WBC diamond belt.
"And they took my mandatory position away and gave it to Tyson Fury after he fought Otto Wallin who was ranked around 1,000,000 in the world.
"It’s a joke, how can he fight Tom Schwarz and Otto Wallin and then be the WBC mandatory contender after I have been beating top-ten guys back-to-back?"
The undefeated Fury, however, has a completely different recollection of their spars.
In fact, he's adamant Whyte's claim is completely "untrue'.
The 33-year-old told : “Dillian Whyte is a bum, untrue. Dillian Whyte couldn’t drop his granny, never mind the ‘Gypsy King.
“Who has Dillian Whyte ever dropped, Lucas Browne…please. Who else, who has he ever dropped?
“I’ve never seen him drop anyone.
“He even had to cheat Dereck Chisora out of a fight, grabbing him and holding him because Eddie Hearn told him to. What a bum useless!”
