"Bum's getting knocked out... again" - Tyson Fury sent a message to Dillian Whyte during a bitter grudge match

TYSON FURY snarkily claimed that Dillian Whyte, a 'bum', is 'getting knocked-out again' while he was training for their grudge match.

Fury started training to face his former training partner and long-time rival in a WBC mandatory title defense. This is scheduled for April in the UK.

In a post on social media, the Gypsy King ridiculed Whyte's 2020 loss to Alexander Povetkin (42 years old).

Fury replied: "Dillian Whyte you're getting it, bum. Bum is being knocked out yet again, but this time by a king and not an old man.

After a PS30.6million offer, Fury's promoter Frank Warren won a record-breaking purse bid for the heavyweight rivals.

Now, confirm the venue and date before contracts can be signed.

Since beating Russian Povetkin last March, Whyte (33), has not fought.

Fury, 33, and Deontay Wilder (36), closed the epic trilogy with Fury in dramatic fashion in 11 rounds in October.

He now prepares to defend the WBC title that he won in 2020 and has blasted Whyte during an interview with ESPN.

Fury stated that he thought Fury was an average-looking heavyweight. Six feet three inches tall, 245 lbs, slow feet and hands, average power.

"Talk about tailor-made boxer, like me. I should chop him down like a large old tree, like cutting through cheese.

The all-British event was originally planned for Cardiff's Principality Stadium.

The home of Welsh rugby is now out of the picture, as Wembley and West Ham's London Stadium are other options.
